Lost & Found is a series pulling from the archives of Obey Giant Art. These are one-time-only specialty prints and products. We’re excited to announce the release of a small amount of “Alternative Facts” prints, available on Thursday, October 10th @ 10 AM PT.
Price Note: These highly sought-after limited edition prints are priced according to the increased value of the print over time.
I believe in truth and democracy, which means I think that if people, regardless of political party, are given honest information and the full picture, they benefit from the power to decide on policies and leaders that shape our society. When perpetual coordinated lies corrupt objective reality itself and democracy is undermined, the societal systems we rely upon and benefit from begin to break down. We are at a critical moment for the preservation of democracy and non-partisan access to voting for all citizens of voting age. Between the blatant lies from some elected officials, the Supreme Court, partisan gerrymandering shaping state legislatures, and the filibuster as a tool of obstruction in Congress, we are already facing tyranny by the minority. The forces dominating our politics do not reflect the values of most Americans. I made this print originally in 2022, to address the mass confusion about truth that allows the parties who spread the big lie about the 2020 election (and many other lies), fomented the January 6th insurrection, and are engaged in voter suppression and other anti-democracy schemes, to flourish unchecked. I saved a portion of the original release for a project that was put on hold, but given the moment and looking through the archive inventory, I feel like now is a good time to remind all voters to reject alternative facts, especially when you head to the polls in November.
