Electronics company LG OLED works in collaboration with American street artist Shepard Fairey to showcase digitalized iterations of his work. It is seen in an installation dubbed Peace and Justice and it is being showcased at the Frieze art fair located in Los Angeles.
It highlights select artworks by Shepard Fairey which specifically shine a spotlight on global issues while pushing for positive impacts. One of these is the 2023 Swam Song print, which is an artful reflection of what the current state of the environment looks like. There is also the 'Make Art Not War' art piece which nods to a past era, reflecting the 60s anti-war slogan of 'Make love, not war.' The LG OLED TVs are also on display at the art show to show Shepard Fairey's art.
