*APC ART is honored to present an iconic dual offering from two of the most influential American street artists of the modern era — **Shepard Fairey & Cleon Peterson’s “Pattern of Corruption” (Diptych)**, published by **Obey Giant, Los Angeles (2015)**.*

This powerful pair of prints, each measuring **18” x 24”**, are **screen prints in colors on wove paper**, **hand-signed, dated, and numbered in graphite pencil by both artists**, from an edition of only **150**. Presented here are **both variants (Black & White)** — an exceptionally rare opportunity to acquire the complete diptych exactly as envisioned by these two modern masters.

Shepard Fairey, the founder of **Obey Giant** and the artist behind the world-renowned **Obama “Hope” poster**, has shaped visual culture for over three decades. His work spans museums, presidential campaigns, global fashion collaborations, and civic interventions, earning him status as one of the most impactful contemporary artists alive. Fairey’s bold graphic language — rooted in political commentary, punk ethos, propaganda aesthetics, and mass communication — has made him a defining voice in both fine art and public art history.

Cleon Peterson, a West Coast icon in his own right, is celebrated for his violent, allegorical, and mythic depictions of power, corruption, and societal collapse. His work channels influences from ancient Greek pottery, totalitarian propaganda, street culture, and morality-driven art history. Exhibited at global institutions such as Beyond the Streets, Garage Amsterdam, and Tokyo’s Diesel Art Gallery, Peterson has become a key figure in contemporary visual rebellion and narrative critique.

Together, Fairey & Peterson have forged one of street art’s most compelling artist partnerships, united by shared visual influences and thematic concerns. **“Pattern of Corruption”** embodies the signature motifs that define their practices — a charged, repeating tableau of chaos and authoritarian struggle reminiscent of **Keith Haring’s rhythmic forms**, yet decidedly darker and more socially explosive. Violence, beauty, and design collide in a hypnotic, wallpaper-like repetition, revealing the systems of control embedded in society itself.

Purchased directly from Obey Giant in 2015, these works have been **stored flat under archival conditions** since receiving them from the publisher. They are **in mint, never-framed condition**, making them an exceptional **investment-grade acquisition** — especially as both artists continue to experience soaring demand and global recognition.

Both works are **in hand and will ship immediately**, and **APC ART is pleased to offer museum-quality archival framing options** upon request.
