**APC ART is pleased to present this absolutely iconic hand-pulled silkscreen — “MAKE ART NOT WAR” (Cream Variant) by Shepard Fairey & Alfredo Gonzalez.**

Shepard Fairey is without question one of the most important living artists of the contemporary era. His *OBEY GIANT* campaign, along with the globally historic *Obama HOPE* poster, redefined the visual language of art, politics and public discourse worldwide. His work sits at the intersection of street art, pop culture, and political activism — and his editions continue to be aggressively pursued by top collectors and institutions internationally.

This print — at only **150 works worldwide** — is *one of the most compelling Fairey releases in recent years*. “Make Art Not War” is arguably Fairey’s most culturally recognizable and defining image. And this newly reinterpreted, collaborative version — produced in partnership with Alfredo Gonzalez — takes this legendary artwork into a new era.

This is not simply a reprint — this is Fairey and Gonzalez *rebuilding* one of the most important compositions in contemporary printmaking — together. Fairey himself said:

*Saw one of Alfredo Gonzalez’s art pieces online and did a deep dive into his exquisitely rendered body of work... Alfredo, being of a kind and generous character, made a small painting inspired by my Make Art Not War print and gave it to me as a gift. I was so impressed by his interpretation of the print that I suggested we make a hybrid collaboration piece... Collaboration is one of the most important mechanisms of peace, so I’m very happy that this project embodies the principle of the art itself!”*

This work is **hand signed, hand numbered, and dated** by Shepard Fairey in graphite, and additionally **hand signed by Alfredo Gonzalez** — a true *dual-signature* collaborative edition.

From an investment perspective, this is a no-brainer: small edition, iconic image, one of the most culturally relevant artworks of the last 20 years — now reborn in 2025 — and physically signed by both artists.

The work is *in hand in the USA* and will ship immediately. 
**Archival framing options are available upon request.**
