Power & Glory 'Merica Skull 20 Multiple Artists
About this poster
This striking art print combines traditional Mexican Día de los Muertos sugar skull imagery with American patriotic symbolism. The skull is rendered in a bold, graphic style typical of Shepard Fairey's work, divided into red and blue sections that mirror the American flag background.
The skull's decorative elements include several pointed social commentaries: oil derricks appear in the eye sockets, the Liberty Bell sits at the crown, and dollar signs are incorporated into flower motifs on the cheeks. The design is symmetrical, with a dotted border framing the skull. The color scheme is limited to red, white, and blue, with the skull appearing to be split down the middle between the colors of the American flag.
The composition effectively merges street art aesthetics with political commentary, using the sugar skull tradition as a vehicle to critique American capitalism, oil dependency, and the intersection of money and politics. Small details like the rose and star emblems in the bottom corners add to the overall design's balance and sophistication.
The piece demonstrates both artists' signature styles - Fairey's propaganda-inspired graphic approach and Yerena's cultural imagery - creating a powerful statement about American economic and political systems.
