Shepard Fairey - E Pluribus Venom (Obey) Book - SIGNED

the lab review

LAB EXCLUSIVO: Each copy of E Pluribus Venom purchased at the Lab is signed by artist Shepard Fairey.

Shepard Fairey's work really needs no introduction. His Obey campaign has blown up to epic proportions spawning everything from a clothing line to his own record label. It's incredible to think that it all began with a simple sticker featuring the face of a beloved dead wrestler. His latest book entitled "E Pluribus Venom" features his recent works that were up in the Jonathan Levine Gallery (NYC). This massive book features both the Chelsea and the Dumbo gallery shows beautifully photographed highlighted with the technical details of each piece. When it comes down to it, Fairey's style and message has remained consistent throughout. The iconic red, black, and tan colors and message of dissent to authority and questioning the government is still a constant and doesn't look like it'll be changing any time soon. About 140 pages, hard cover. Recommended.
