Anticipation: Pattern of Corruption

Post by ckeppler »

Cleon Peterson and I recently collaborated on a mural in Miami’s Wynwood district and were happy enough with the end result to decide to make some limited edition screen prints inspired by the mural. Cleon and I both deal with the persistent themes of the fragility of society, human savagery, and corruption in our work. The image has a dichotomy in its hypnotic classical floral pattern with sinister elements woven into it, which caution the viewer to look deeper than an appealing surface presentation.
-Shepard

18 x 24 inch screen print. Signed by Shepard Fairey and Cleon Peterson. 3 colorways available: Black/White, Black/Gold and Blue/White. All sets are $120. Purchase limit is 1 set per person/household only. Choose your color! If you purchase more than one set you will be refunded for your last order(s).

Release date: January 27, 2015 at a random time between 10am and 12noon PST in PRINTS

I like the blue/white the best but $120 for each set may keep some folks from pulling the trigger on these.

I think these will go like hot cakes. Dig. Gold black is the better choice IMO.

i think the blue looks best....has this Classical Greek feel to it. that said, prob won't buy. Peterson's imagery just comes off too violent for my taste.

Ditto. Feels a tad bit expensive too. Think I'll decide on the day if I'm gonna go for it.

Expensive? It breaks down to $60 a print which is right in line with collab prints. Wish I could go for this one but gotta watch from the sidelines.

Personally, I feel like you can't go wrong with any color way. With that said, I'd be happy with that blue one. I feel like this is a Cleon print that is more "home friendly" as oppose to the other ones with scenes of violence.

^^ This
It's hard to say no to the gold ink Shep uses on his prints, but I'll be going for the Blue.

I'm thinking blue for this one. It softens the imagery a little bit.

I am not sure it is worth it. It is slower than when the drop actually takes place for a good print. These are not going to sell for a ton more than face IMO.
