ABV Gallery is proud to present ‘NEW DAY RISING,’ a solo exhibition by Shepard Fairey.
This exhibition marks Shepard Fairey’s first solo exhibition in Atlanta, presenting more than 150 works that explore his signature imagery and cultural commentary.
About the artist:
A major figure of the contemporary street art movement, Shepard Fairey rose to prominence in the early 1990s with his “Andre the Giant Has a Posse” campaign, which distributed posters, stickers, and murals featuring the eponymous wrestler around Providence, Rhode Island. Fairey’s iconic 2008 “Hope” campaign poster for President Barack Obam encapsulates a number of the artist’s recurring concerns, including propaganda, portraiture, and political power. Fairey’s work, which has sold for six figures at auction, can be found in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.
