About this product
Two bold designs. One literary classic. This 1984 tote pairs Shepard Fairey’s iconic Penguin UK cover artwork with a repeating 2+2=4, 2+2=3, 2+2=5 graphic on the reverse.
“In 2008, I worked with Penguin Books (UK) to design the cover of their reissue of George Orwell's dystopian classic "1984." I consider both 1984 and Animal Farm two of the most important novels written in the 20th century, and I continue to use both books as inspiration for my work.” -Shepard Fairey

Shepard Fairey is a contemporary street artist, graphic designer, activist, and founder of OBEY Clothing and creative agency Studio Number One. In 1989, while at Rhode Island School of Design studying for his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration, Shepard Fairey created the “Andre the Giant has a Posse” sticker that later evolved into the OBEY GIANT art campaign. In 2008, his portrait of then-Democratic candidate Barack Obama became an internationally recognized emblem of hope. He is known for the “We The People” campaign which debuted during the 2017 Women’s Marches worldwide. Fairey has painted more than 140 public murals across six continents and become one of the most sought-after and provocative artists globally. His work has changed the way people converse about art and view the urban landscape.
