BEYOND THE STREETS is proud to present SHEPARD FAIREY: OUT OF PRINT, a landmark exhibition devoted to the artist’s lifelong dialogue with printmaking. Bringing together more than 400 original screen prints alongside new and re‑mixed works that combine screen printing and stenciling, the exhibition surveys Fairey’s enduring commitment to the image, the multiple, and the power of mass communication.

“I’m a product of the era of mass production, and the mass culture printing has created. I can’t imagine my art practice without the influence of, and the use of, printing,” says Shepard Fairey. “Some of my biggest art influences were not paintings but printed things like posters, album covers, skateboard graphics, punk flyers, and t‑shirt designs. Printing is a cornerstone of my art practice and philosophy. The printing press began the democratization of art, and I have used printed posters to spread my artwork and messages in public spaces as well as keep my art affordable by printing multiples.”

Spanning early underground interventions to celebrated cultural icons, OUT OF PRINT charts Fairey’s evolution across three and a half decades: from guerrilla placements and hand‑pulled posters to studio editions whose graphic precision and political urgency have entered the global visual lexicon. The presentation highlights the artist’s fluency in the language of advertising and propaganda, recoding those strategies to “arrest visually and provoke intellectually,” and underscores how the reproducible image circulated on walls, in windows, and through wardrobes functions as both civic dialogue and cultural memory.

Alongside historic and rare editions, the exhibition debuts a focused group of hybrid works in which layered stencils, paper, and ink collide expanding Fairey’s print vocabulary while remaining rooted in the immediacy of the street. Archival materials, process ephemera, and contextual graphics round out the presentation, offering a behind‑the‑scenes look at the artist’s methods and influences posters, album art, skateboard graphics, and punk flyers among them.  “OUT OF PRINT brings together the spirit of the street and the discipline of the studio,” notes Director Dante Parel. “It’s an opportunity to experience the breadth of Shepard’s print practice in one sweep from the subcultural pulse that shaped him to the images that, in turn, helped shape public imagination.”

“Some people say digital media has ended print, but the provocative, tactile experience of a print on a wall or in the wild can’t be replaced” says Shepard Fairey, “Printing still matters!”

Shepard Fairey Obey 'Live Anthology' Tom Petty Print Release Details

Artist: Shepard Fairey/Obey
Title: Live Anthology (Tom Petty)
Medium: Multi Color Screen Print
Size: 18 x 24 Inches
Edition: 1,000
Price: $75

Tom Petty was an American singer, songwriter and guitarist whose plain spoken lyrics and chiming guitars helped define heartland rock. Born in Gainesville, Florida in 1950, he formed the Epics at fourteen, then Mudcrutch, which evolved into Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in 1976. Their debut album delivered radio staples Breakdown and American Girl, establishing a signature sound built on jangling Rickenbacker chords, driving bass and Petty’s nasal, everyman drawl.

Over four decades he released thirteen studio albums with the Heartbreakers, plus three solo projects and two as part of the Traveling Wilburys. Songs like Refugee, Don’t Come Around Here No More and I Won’t Back Down blend defiance with vulnerability, chronicling restless lovers, dreamers and outsiders who refuse to surrender. His writing prizes concise storytelling and memorable hooks, influenced by the Beatles’ melodic craft and Southern roots of Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Petty’s stage presence was deceptively laid back; behind the lacid smile lay meticulous attention to arrangement and dynamics. He fought record industry greed, declaring bankruptcy in 1979 to void a bad contract, and later battled streaming services over artist royalties, earning a reputation as a defender of creative control.

In 2017 he concluded a triumphant fortieth anniversary tour with the Heartbreakers, then died suddenly of cardiac arrest, prompting an outpouring of grief from fans and peers who hailed him as a voice of quiet rebellion. His catalog remains a roadmap for navigating disappointment with melody, humor and stubborn hope, proof that simple chords can carry complex truths and that rock and roll, at its best, is an act of compassionate defiance.

Shepard Fairey Obey 'Uplift Justice' Print Release Details

Artist: Shepard Fairey/Obey
Title: Uplift Justice
Medium: Multi Color Screen Print
Size: 24 x 36 Inches
Edition: 550
Price: $95

*available at 1pm EST on Thursday November 14th, 2025

_______________

“Uplift Justice” is based on a Mural I painted in Philadelphia in the fall of 2025. I wanted to create an image in Philly, a city often considered the birthplace of American democracy, that connects the ideals of the past with the questions we face today. Nearly 250 years after the founding of this country, we have an opportunity to ask ourselves what the next 250 years should look like a continuation of where we’re headed, or maybe a reset.

I chose a woman as the central figure because I see women as natural peacemakers, builders of family and community the qualities we need most right now. My hope is that this art invites people to reflect on justice, history, and the values that guide us today.
-Shepard

Serio Press is a Los Angeles print studio built on ink, daylight and democratic ideals. Opened in 2012 by master printer Jorge López, the shop occupies a former textile mill near the L.A. River, where thirty foot skylights flood custom built work tables with even, north facing light. Specialising in water based screen printing, the team collaborates with artists, museums and social justice organisations to translate paintings, digital collages and photographs into limited edition prints that retain the hand of the original while gaining the tactile snap of pulled ink.

The process begins with high-resolution scanning or direct photography on site. Separations are then output on waterproof film, handcut or digitally printed, and stretched onto aluminium frames tensioned to 25 newtons tight enough to hold fine halftone dots yet flexible for large solids. Using only water-based pigments, printers lay down translucent glazes, metallic overlays or split fountain rainbows, building colour fields that can exceed twenty layers without muddying. Paper stocks range from Somerset velvet to recycled kraft, each chosen to complement the image surface and the artist’s intent.

Beyond edition work, Serio Press runs community workshops, teaching local high school students how to burn screens, mix pigments and edition their own posters. Recent projects include a 5,000 run voter registration broadside for Rock the Vote, a suite of ocean coloured prints with painter Hayley Barker and a monumental twelve color portrait of labor leader Dolores Huerta for the Smithsonian.

Every print leaves the shop stamped with the Serio chop two coyotes circling a saguaro symbolising collaboration, resilience and the belief that art, like ink, should travel far beyond the studio wall.

________________ 

Frank Shepard Fairey, born 15 February 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina, is the creative force behind the global OBEY movement. While studying illustration at Rhode Island School of Design he launched the 1989 sticker campaign André the Giant Has a Posse, transforming a grainy newspaper photo of the wrestler into a stark black-and-white icon accompanied only by the command “OBEY”. The project was never about the man; it was an experiment in viral psychology, testing how a meaningless image could propagate through skate parks, city walls and college dorms once it looked official and appeared everywhere. Fairey’s answer came quickly: the sticker multiplied, becoming one of the most ubiquitous street images of the 1990s and laying the groundwork for his clothing label OBEY Clothing (est. 2001) and design agency Studio Number One (2003).

Fairey’s style marries the visual punch of propaganda posters with the immediacy of DIY print culture. Hand-cut stencils, bold blocks of red, white and black, and crisp vector lines deliver messages that are easy to read from a moving bus yet rich in layered meaning. He cites Soviet constructivism, 1980s skateboard graphics and punk flyers as equal influences, and his philosophy is simple: “question everything”. That ethos turned political in 2008 when he created the HOPE portrait of then-senator Barack Obama, a screen-print that fused his signature palette with a forward-gazing gaze and the single word “HOPE”. The image became the unofficial emblem of Obama’s presidential campaign, praised by The New Yorker as the most efficacious American political illustration since Uncle Sam Wants You.

Since then Fairey has focused on issues rather than personalities, tackling climate change, campaign-finance reform, gun violence and human rights through posters, murals and limited-edition prints. His process remains hands-on: he cuts stencils by hand, pulls his own screens and pastes works on walls from Los Angeles to Lisbon, insisting that reproducibility keeps art democratic. Institutions including MoMA, the Smithsonian and London’s V&A have acquired his prints, yet he continues to paste illegally, proving that museum validation has not dulled his subversive edge.

Today Fairey lives and works in Los Angeles, producing monumental murals, album covers and clothing graphics that continue to blur the boundary between fine art, commerce and activism. Whether painting a five-storey portrait of a voting rights activist or releasing a run of anti-NRA stickers, he treats every surface as public space for civic dialogue, demonstrating that ink on paper can still shift consciousness and, occasionally, history itself.

Alfredo Gonzalez, who signs his work Dofre, is an Oxnard-based contemporary artist represented by Sugar Press Art. Born with graffiti roots, he merges traditional oil painting with bold, deconstructed portraiture to create what critics call “disrupted realism”. Using brushes, palette knives and aerosol, he builds fractured faces where eyes, mouths and hands float across raw linen, suggesting emotional dislocation rather than physical likeness.

His palette balances classical ochres with neon sprays, allowing thick impasto to collide with transparent glazes so the surface flickers between old master depth and street art immediacy. Recent series such as Aún Así layer metallic gold over asphalt black, then scratch away sections to reveal under-painting, a technique that mirrors the way memory erodes and reforms. Each limited edition is hand embellished, ensuring no two prints are identical.

Gonzalez exhibits widely, from Grand Bohemian Gallery group shows to online drops that sell out within hours. Through every ruptured portrait he offers a single message: identity is never fixed, but always in flux, painted and repainted by experience, culture and the city that raised him.
