*APC ART is pleased to present “Positive Space / Negative Space” (TT1-3 Blue/Red), a powerful collaborative silkscreen by Shepard Fairey (OBEY) and Invader, two of the most influential and historically significant figures to emerge from the global street art movement.*
Executed in 2025 and published by HENI, London, UK, this work is an embossed silkscreen print in colors, hand signed and dated in graphite pencil by both Shepard Fairey and Invader. The work measures 53.3 cm x 73.3 cm (approximately 21 x 28.9 inches) framed and comes from the strictly limited edition of only 250 examples. A stamped HENI certificate of authenticity is affixed en verso, confirming provenance and publication. The work is brand new, presented in its original HENI box, and will arrive framed to museum standard and ready for immediate display.
Visually, this Blue/Red variant is widely regarded as the most desirable colorway from the series. A bold Invader pixel-form rendered in pale blue occupies the central positive space, floating with striking clarity against a saturated red field densely patterned with Shepard Fairey’s signature ornamental geometry. The embossed surface adds depth and tactility, elevating the work beyond a conventional edition and reinforcing its object-like presence. The contrast between the crisp, digital rigidity of Invader’s figure and the hypnotic repetition of Fairey’s analog patterning creates a perfectly balanced tension between order and disruption, control and invasion.
Conceptually, the work is a direct homage to Invader’s iconic “Invasion” imagery as well as the historic Pictures On Walls (POWs) era, a foundational moment in contemporary street art publishing. The title “Positive Space / Negative Space” is not merely descriptive but philosophical — addressing visibility versus absence, authority versus resistance, and how imagery occupies power within public and cultural space. Fairey’s background pattern functions almost like ideological wallpaper, while Invader’s figure pierces it with unmistakable symbolic force.
Shepard Fairey is globally recognized for redefining the relationship between art, propaganda, and activism, with milestones ranging from his OBEY campaign to the iconic HOPE portrait and major museum exhibitions worldwide. His work is collected by major institutions and blue-chip private collectors alike. Invader, equally influential, revolutionized street art through his systematic pixelated invasions across global cities, bringing video game iconography into the fine art canon. His works are held in leading museum collections and represent some of the most sought-after contemporary editions of the last two decades.
This work was released in conjunction with the artists’ current collaborative exhibition, marking a rare and highly anticipated convergence of two distinct but deeply interconnected visual languages. Collaborative works of this caliber — combining both artists’ signatures, iconography, and conceptual rigor — are increasingly scarce and historically important.
From an acquisition standpoint, this piece represents an exceptional investment opportunity. The edition size is restrained, the provenance is pristine, the condition is brand new, and the Blue/Red variant has consistently proven to be the strongest performer and most coveted among collectors. This is a museum-level work that speaks simultaneously to street culture, art history, and contemporary design — a true cornerstone piece for any serious collection.
