A recommendation by designdude

designdude's recommendation

Obama's connection with young voters is pretty evident in the fact that he has by now inspired multiple campaign/appreciation posters from counterculture-tinged artists, including Shepherd Fairey and now Mac for Upper Playground. Like the former, this one was produced in limited numbers and utilizes unconventional printing techniques. Get it while you can. (via sygyzy)

First to recommend

We've all seen the Obama prints by Shepard Fairey and while some may question the originality of his work, one cannot deny the impact and trendsetting nature of his work on the Obama `08 campaign.

Commissioned by the SF collective, Upper Playground, this Mac print is unique in it's henna tattoo style and still remains affordable, even though they were limited and signed. I am hoping for a restock soon.

There is no denying the lasting impact that the original Obey design by Shepard Fairey had on this campaign (and probably leaking out into the design world, in general). Conceding it a fantastic piece, it truly has nothing on this Limited edition print. By my calculations it's virtually perfect and supremely captures the man, ahem -the soon to be President.

I love this print by Mac X. Similar to Shepard Fairy's Obama print released last year, I like the bright colors and vintage appeal of this one more. The detail on his face looks like a psychadelic henna tattoo, too, which is always fun.
