Thanks for the link, I'm quite tempted by the Hank Willis Thomas print (the small one), decent image, decent size, decent edition size and decent price.

Very few left - Hank Willis Thomas prints at Kickstarter. They are going somewhat fast. Released this morning 9/16. 

As someone mentioned above - Nice image, good size edition and pretty good deal. 

Edition of 100. Signed and Numbered by artist. 

$300 + shipping.

Hank Willis Thomas edition print just sold out, missed out whilst in the cart

[daryldude]

Think the print is great, but does anyone know the story of why it's really close to a previous release?

Are you new to fairey's work? this is what he does. there are currently 6 other print variations of this image. That large format you posted, 2 letterpresses, 3 18"x24" screen prints and now this new 18"x24" screen print.

Fairly new to fairey yes... Have seen some of his prints but not from a wide range of time. So wasn't aware it's his thing. Thanks for letting me know   I am new to him and to here.

[ILaveIt]

Missed out on the Wills Thomas print. If anyone has a spare that they’re willing to sell please lmk. I would be willing to pay a premium... Thanks

[Poster Bob]

How much of a premium?

Seems like they reached their goal of $100,000 today on Kickstarter. Prints and gifts should now be released. Congratulations to everyone who picked up a Hank Willis Thomas print.

Looks like his eBay charity print “all lies matter” (edition of 400), which was released -  last year - same time as the Nara’s marching.., is now getting $3,000 at auction.

Bummed I missed the HWT love over rules print.

For his fans, looks like Aperture is selling a signed exhibition book of his latest museum show for $75 - just $10 more than what the unsigned book costs.

Now that it is December, has anyone ever hear anything from them following up on possible delivery of the items? They don't have any "contact us" info on their website.

Thanks @dmatt! I had not done so.

Does anyone have any updates of this? Nobody is coming back to me with a feedback from both Obey and Wideawakes!

Mine has shipped - I received a text message from FedEx a couple of days ago. It's still in Texas, and I'm in Australia, so i'll be waiting another week or so.

Hey I have received today my print. No Fedex, no confirmation, no tracking number. I'll send you the sender's details if you need to contact them!

How's the print look @dmatt?

AK-47 LOTUS & AR-15 LILY

Available Thursday, January 7th

These images are inspired by Vietnam War protesters who would put flowers in the gun barrels of the National Guard who were brought in to suppress their protests for peace. I’m a pacifist, whether that means finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid war internationally or finding diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid gun violence at home. I’m not anti- Second Amendment, so trolls can calm down… I’m not interested in macho blathering, I just want fewer people to die unnecessarily. Brady United is doing good work preventing gun violence so they will receive a portion of proceeds from these two prints. Thanks for caring.

It's just one release. He hasn't gone backwards. Trust me.

I'm basing it on the last few releases. But I'll take your word for it. Cos I love my old fairey prints and look forward to more of his best.

Voting Rights Are Human Rights MKE Mural

Available Thursday, January 14th

I wanted to remind people how important it is to assert their right to vote when I created this mural in Milwaukee last summer. The inspiration behind "Voting Rights are Human Rights" is the striking image of an anonymous civil rights marcher photographed by Steve Schapiro from the early 1960’s. I felt that this subject is emblematic of the ongoing fight.

It was important to me that I wasn't the only voice in this piece. I feel fortunate that fellow artists Tyanna Buie, Niki Johnson, Tom Jones, Claudio Martinez, and Dyani Whitehawk, were open to being included in the mural to demonstrate the need for voting rights and racial and social justice! I hope that people will look at this mural and remind themselves that their voice matters in shaping the future. Thanks again to Wallpapered City, Black Box Fund, the Milwaukee Bucks for the support on this project! A poster of this mural drops this Thursday, January 14th, on my site: store.obeygiant.com. A portion of the proceeds goes to Souls To The Polls!

Print Details:
Voting Rights are Human Rights MKE Mural. 24 x 18 inches. Screen print on thick cream Speckletone paper. Original photo by Jon Furlong. Signed by Shepard Fairey. Numbered edition of 550. $65. Proceeds go to Souls to the Polls.

Available on Thursday, January 14th @ 10 AM PST at store.obeygiant.com/collections/prints. Max order: 1 per customer/household. International customers are responsible for import fees due upon delivery.⁣ Shipping may be delayed due to COVID19. ALL SALES FINAL.





For all of you who have attempted to purchase my prints and found it frustrating to have them sell out while you are attempting to purchase I’d like to share a few things. First, I’m incredibly grateful that you like my art and support my work! I also work with my team to weed out bots and flippers using both advanced-Shopify bot protection software and tracking flippers online, who are then blocked from future sales. This eats up a good amount of time for my team purely in an effort to ensure that true fans get as many of the prints as possible. However, flippers are quite crafty about using new names, new IP addresses, and advanced software to bypass bot filters. For example, on the AK-47 Lotus and AR-15 Lily prints, 915 bots were blocked by our anti-bot software, yet several of those prints still ended up on eBay. We use a captcha system which helps to filter out bots. I hear the frequent complaint that the captcha slowed down checkout, but it is part of bot protection. When releasing prints I’m trying to balance several considerations. I want the art to be affordable, but also special for collectors. I usually keep the print editions limited to from 350 to 550, which are large editions, but still well below the demand. When many more orders are being placed simultaneously than prints are available, some customers will inevitably reach the conclusion of checkout only to find the print has sold out during the time that process took to complete. I’m very frustrated by bots and flippers too. My team and I are trying to stop them as much as possible. I make open edition lithographs of some of my most popular images to make sure my art is always accessible. Please understand that I care a lot. Thanks for the support and understanding.

Decent print that, as a leftie wanker I like the message, might try pick one up. Nicer than his last few that's for sure.

In case you end up buying one, I just got the second one (the Lilly) and the red and gold are absolutely stunning.

Burn Baby Burn Letterpress

Available Thursday, January 21st

Burn Baby Burn, inspired by the aesthetics of “live fast - die young” rock ’n’ roll, is a critique of some harmful habits we are addicted to. Not just the harmful effects of burning fossil fuels, but also the dangerous psychology of denial and nihilism that underpins the apathy toward the planet’s future (and ours)! Whether it is the defiant greed of the fossil fuel corporations or the indifference of a public comfortable with status quo habits around fossil fuels, further delay in transitioning to renewable energy sources will be catastrophic for the planet and all of its species. I know that none of us like the idea of disrupting a comfortable habit. Still, the relative ease of a gradual transition off of fossil fuels is vastly superior to the stresses, and disastrous consequences, of waiting until many of the impacts are past their tipping point. If we keep waiting to act until tomorrow, the phrase “like there’s no tomorrow” might drop the “like” and become more literal. This print is on cotton rag sustainable paper, by the way. A portion of the proceeds from this print will benefit Greenpeace to assist their efforts to protect the environment and ween America off fossil fuels. Thanks for caring.
