Shepard Faireyさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Shepard FaireyInstagram)「@subliminalprojects is pleased to present ICONS, an exhibition by gallery founder Shepard Fairey (@obeygiant). The exhibition will debut a new series and method of hand-embellished “mono-engravings,” as well as screen prints on wood and metal, hand-painted multiples (HPMs), and modular works focused around Fairey’s career-long investigation into iconography and phenomenology.⁠ ⁠ Fairey’s fascination with symbology is rooted in his intrinsic interest in skateboarding, and punk rock, whose branding and use of imagery made a statement by reducing images to their most potent essence. As a young art student and street artist, he drew and designed bold and minimal imagery, which easily translated to the streets - his primary domain. Fairey understood that using identifiable symbols rendered in his unique style was the best way to communicate ideas effectively and memorably. Illustrations of creative and political individuals who have both subjectively and objectively become icons for their profound contributions to culture became another consistent facet of Fairey’s practice. Whether he’s amplifying his heroes or critiquing villains of the socio-political landscape, Fairey continues to explore the concept of what makes an icon and the many layers it can take on.⁠ ⁠ Join us on Saturday, November 18th, 7-10 PM for the opening reception.
