Art plays a pivotal role in creating cultural momentum. The MANIFEST HOPE: DC Gallery celebrates that role and shines a spotlight on artists who use their voices to amplify and motivate the grassroots movement that carried President-Elect Barack Obama to victory.

MANIFEST HOPE: DC gathers together a diverse array of the nation’s most talented visual artists under one roof to mark this monumental achievement in our nation’s history and encourages artists and activists to maintain the momentum to bring about true change in the United States.

George Orwell x Shepard Fairey Print set

A couple of months ago Shepard was approached by Penguin Books (UK) to do his take on the cover art for the literary classics, “1984″ and “Animal Farm.”  Being that both books were inspirational and favorites of Shep, this was a no brainer.  When the books, with the covers, were released Penguin Books did a promotion selling the books with a cover art print set.  These prints were only available in the UK… UNTIL NOW!  We only have the print set available in a very limited quantity.  The print set will be released on 12/31 between noon and 3pm PST.  They are offset prints, and are A2 in size (about 17″ x 24″), Edition of 200, signed/numbered.  Print set will be $140.  Limited 1 set per person/household.
