SHEPARD FAIREY – PAINT IT BLACK

Made by Shepard Fairey Obey, Paint It Black is a silk-screen print on hand-finished paper from a limited edition of 19 pieces. This work measuring 76 x 104 cm is numbered and signed in original by the artist.

The hand in the center of the composition is caught in the act of offering the observer a can of black paint, which refers to oil and the negative consequences that the latter brings to the environment. The artist Shepard Fairey therefore proposes a complaint to the oil industry and invites the viewer to reflect on the danger of fossil fuels.

The title "Paint It Black" also recalls a 1966 song by the Rolling Stones, which tells of the depression caused by the death of a loved one, in which the whole world turns black.

In his works, Obey deals with issues ranging from climate change to wars, from poverty to gender inequality.

In Paint It Black the street artist Shepard Fairey is inspired by the artists of Russian Constructivism both in the choice of color palette, both for the graphic composition.
