Power and Glory I
This piece is one of four silkscreen prints created by Fairey for his 2014 exhibition, Power & Glory - a celebration and critique of Americana, with an emphasis on the meanings of power.
The series of four is a deconstruction of the American flag; the OBEY emblem represents the stars and the diamond patterns, the stripes. The collection invites the observer to consider their allegiance to the flag.
Through his use of strong geometrical compositions, Fairey draws our eye to the central emblem and to the message at the heart of all his art, to OBEY, or not to OBEY?
Power and Glory I is a silkscreen print from a limited edition of 75, signed by the artist.
Size (cm): 69.4 x 69.4
