His Andre the Giant imagery — derived from the wrestler's face, deployed in the \"OBEY\" campaign that has covered walls worldwide — is among the most recognisable visual motifs in contemporary culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePen Nib Collage presents the Andre the Giant imagery within a collage framework that connects Fairey's street art origins to the art historical tradition of collage running from Dada through Pop Art. The pen nib — symbol of writing, of the graphic arts, of the act of marking a surface — is a self-referential element in the work of an artist who began his career as a graphic designer. Signed. Available through Creed Gallery, Ascot, for collectors across Berkshire, Surrey, and London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSigned limited edition\u003cbr\u003e\nCertificate of Authenticity\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OBEY (Shepard Fairey)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54086196330836,"sku":null,"price":995.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/0418\/6196\/files\/shepard-fairey-obey-pen-nib-collage-andre-the-giant-print.jpg?v=1775207670","url":"https:\/\/creedgallery.com\/products\/shepard-fairey-pen-nib-collage","provider":"Creed Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
