“These Sunsets Are To Die For” depicts a beautiful but ominous sunset, disturbingly amplified by pollution. The image is inspired by the dramatic pollution-fueled sunsets I witnessed in Providence, Rhode Island. The scene in the original painting the print is based on is from a photo I took in Brooklyn looking across the river to Manhattan where the factory smoke merged with the clouds at sundown. The image is also a part of my highway mural in Munich, Germany facilitated by ‌Positive-Propaganda. This print, like all that use French Cream Speckle Tone, is on 80% recycled paper. -Shepard store.obeygiant.com/products/these…

I recently took the stage with fellow artist and activist Hank Willis Thomas at @Summit #Detroit to discuss our shared sensibilities and creative approaches to provocative public works that disrupt and challenge conventional thinking. From the earliest days of my Obey art project, the idea has been to prompt viewers to observe their environment and question their surroundings, encouraging them to see beyond the surface. Thank you, Hank, for your wisdom and inspiration. Thank you, Summit, for having me! - Shepard #forfreedoms #obey #shepardfairey #summitdetroit

The image of AR-15 Lily is inspired by anti-Vietnam War protestors who placed flowers in the barrels of National Guard rifles sent to repress their peaceful demonstrations. I am a pacifist, whether that means seeking diplomatic solutions to prevent and avoid wars internationally or working to prevent and avoid gun violence at home. I want fewer people to die unnecessarily.

Last week, I was invited back to Paris to mark the ten year anniversary of the Paris Climate Accord and my Earth Crisis globe, which was suspended from the Eiffel Tower during COP21 and to inaugurate the new exhibition at Paris City Hall: “Paris–Belém: 10 Years of Global Actions for the Climate!” This exhibition celebrates a decade of ecological mobilization and pays tribute to all those who act every day in the face of the climate emergency. “Earth’s Future is Our Future” is a reminder that protecting the planet means protecting our collective future. Each of us is deeply interconnected and equally impacted by the climate crisis. The distress that environmental destruction creates doesn’t affect just one of us; it affects us all. The need for climate action is urgent, and each of us has a role to play. -Shepard PRINT DETAILS: Earth’s Future Is Our Future. 18 x 24 inches. Screen print on 80# cream Speckletone paper.

I’ve talked to God, and they told me they want abortions free and legal 💒✨ @OBEYGIANT : Nadya and I were both appalled by the regressive overturning of Roe Vs. Wade, creating a threat to women’s access to abortion and right to make choices for their own bodies. This God Save Abortion print is a response to abortion restrictions and the general disrespect for women displayed by Republicans. Collab print with Shepard Fairey just dropped now ⛓️ Portion of the proceeds supports @PPFA ⛓️‍💥🪽

This is the 2nd time I created @PunkRockBowling's poster, this time celebrating their 25th anniversary. I love the DIY, punk ethos and the bands involved. Punk and hardcore changed my life by showing me that through resourceful independence people can build their own scene and be creative on their own terms.

Rob Sato’s art lives in a thrilling zone where seductive, colorful, surreal landscapes invite exploration but paradoxically hint at ominous bad trips lurking over the horizon. Sato’s paintings conjure Willy Wonka's edible candy garden where the fine line between delicious and deadly is crucial to the mystery and adventure. -Shepard Subliminal Projects presents Earthquake Country, a solo exhibition by Echo Park-based artist Rob Sato, featuring new drawings, paintings, and collaborative textile works. 🗓️ Opening Reception: Saturday, June 7 | 7–10 PM⁠ 📍 @subliminalprojects | Echo Park, LA⁠ 📩 RSVP: rsvp@subliminalprojects.com⁠ 🔗 Link in bio for more information

I’m excited to come to #WashingtonDC later this month to paint my mural of Joaquin “Guac” Olivier, a victim of the Parkland School Shooting. The permanent mural is titled “We Demand Change,” and I hope that change will result from this collaborative effort between my team, @ChangeTheRef, @woollymammothtc and the @DowntownDCBID. I’ve seen how art can shift the conversation and bring us together in politically and culturally meaningful ways. After meeting Joaquin’s parents, Manuel, a visual artist, and his wife Patricia, I wanted to create an image that helped continue the conversation around gun safety and violence that’s led by the young people too often impacted by it. I hope the portrait’s permanent home in #DC, less than a mile from The White House, as a new administration takes office, will not only celebrate Joaquin and all the victims of gun crime, but also be a timely reminder to all that the fight for sensible #gunreform is sadly ongoing. Thanks for caring! - Shepard

Presented in collaboration with OTI #Bangkok, my newest exhibition, "Golden Compass”, explores the human struggle to find balance and harmony while combatting injustice and managing righteous rage and grief. Art is a perfect tool in this quest because it connects to the most compassionate core of our humanity. The concepts in "Golden Compass” serve as guiding principles in our collective journey, guiding us toward self-discovery and contemplation to unlock conscious and subconscious truths. The works in this show offer an interplay of mixed-media collage, bold graphic elements, and type to engage and challenge the viewer on a range of topics. The aim is to create dynamic dialogues that confront complex themes while fostering a direct connection with the audience. My hope is that each piece provides an opportunity for reflection, ideally inspiring subtle or overt calls to action. This exhibition showcases a diverse array of original mixed media paintings, alongside a collection of retired stencils and screenprints rendered on wood and metal, all set against unique collaged backgrounds. It is my hope that these works will inspire viewers to reflect on their own journeys, encouraging them to find their personal compass amid challenging times. Thanks for caring! - S Opening Reception: Thursday, February 27, 5-7PM Exhibition Dates: 27 February-27 April 2025 #overtheinfluence #shepardfairey #obey #goldencompass #bangkok #thailand

Happy Valentine’s Day y’all! I hope you have someone you love(or at least someone special) to share it with. This show flyer from ’99 is relevant for me in that regard because the show took place two days before my wife Amanda and I started dating… the best thing that ever happened to me. Stay tuned for a few pics on our dating anniversary the 16th! -S
