{"product_id":"gigante-obey-andre-the-giant","title":"Gigante (Obey Andre the Giant)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAPC ART is pleased to present *Gigante*, an exceptional collaborative edition by **Isaac Pelayo** and **Shepard Fairey**, created on the occasion of Pelayo's landmark *Gemini* exhibition in Los Angeles, California, in 2026. Executed as a **hand-pulled silkscreen print in colors on 160 lb. Cream Speckletone fine art paper**, the work measures **24 × 18 inches (61 × 45.7 cm)** and is **hand signed, dated and numbered by both artists in the lower margin** from the highly sought-after **edition of only 300**.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Gigante* represents a compelling meeting of two influential voices in contemporary art. Isaac Pelayo has become internationally recognized for his emotionally charged portraiture, seamlessly blending Chicano culture, Old Master techniques and contemporary realism into powerful narratives of identity and heritage. Shepard Fairey, one of the defining artists of the modern street art movement, has spent more than three decades creating instantly recognizable imagery rooted in activism, graphic design and social commentary. Together, the two artists create a work that feels both timeless and unmistakably contemporary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePublished exclusively for Pelayo's *Gemini* exhibition in Los Angeles, this collaboration celebrates the shared artistic language between two generations of artists who have each helped redefine contemporary visual culture. Fairey's bold graphic sensibilities perfectly complement Pelayo's painterly realism, resulting in a striking composition that possesses tremendous visual depth while remaining immediately recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted using the traditional hand-pulled silkscreen process on heavyweight 160 lb. Cream Speckletone paper, *Gigante* exhibits the rich color saturation, crisp registration and tactile surface collectors have come to expect from museum-quality screen printing. The substantial paper stock and meticulous craftsmanship reinforce the edition's exceptional production quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCollaborative editions between established contemporary artists are produced infrequently, particularly when both artists personally sign the work. As both Isaac Pelayo's international reputation and Shepard Fairey's blue-chip market continue to expand, editions such as *Gigante* have become increasingly desirable among collectors seeking significant cross-market works that bridge fine art, street art and contemporary portraiture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work offered by APC ART is in excellent condition and represents an outstanding opportunity to acquire one of the standout collaborative releases of 2026. Its rarity, exceptional production quality and the combined significance of both artists make it equally compelling for seasoned collectors and those building important contemporary collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with all works offered by APC ART, we are pleased to offer **true museum-quality archival framing** utilizing acid-free conservation materials, UV-protective glazing and custom archival mounting.
