**APC ART is pleased to present this iconic Shepard Fairey edition — “Raise The Level (Peace).”**

Executed as a *hand-pulled silkscreen in colors* on **cream Speckletone fine art paper**, this edition measures **24” × 18”** and is **hand signed and numbered** by the artist in graphite pencil. Published directly by Shepard Fairey in **2025**, the edition is limited to **550** examples worldwide — all rapidly sold-out upon release.

This work epitomizes Fairey’s unmistakable visual language: bold propaganda-style imagery, graphic line work, and messaging rooted in activism. The powerful “peace” hand gesture rises above layered cultural symbols — flowers, environmental motifs, and references to mass media — creating a *call-to-action* rooted in unity, environmental stewardship, and social awareness. This is Fairey at his most compelling — using beauty to amplify a message that matters.

Shepard Fairey is one of the most influential figures in contemporary art. From his *OBEY* street campaign to his legendary **Obama “Hope”** poster — arguably the most recognized political artwork of the 21st century — Fairey has reshaped how art interacts with the public sphere. His works are held in major institutions worldwide including **MoMA New York, LACMA Los Angeles,** and the **Victoria & Albert Museum London**.

From an investment standpoint, this edition represents a highly desirable opportunity. Fairey’s works addressing peace, environmentalism, and social progress remain among his strongest long-term performers — and editions of 550 are increasingly rare, with collectors often holding indefinitely. The market for top-tier Shepard Fairey prints remains exceptionally strong, making this an intelligent acquisition for both seasoned and emerging collectors.

This work has **never been framed** and is in **mint condition**, stored flat with museum-quality archival materials since acquisition. It is **in-hand** and will **ship immediately from the USA**, professionally packed with full care and insurance.

If you are collecting Fairey’s most important themes — *activism, hope, and human connection* — this is a truly core image.
