LIMITED EDITION CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH ART PRINT

George Harrison

Shepard Fairey Announces Limited-Edition Concert for Bangladesh Art Print

CFB 40th

Shepard Fairey has announced a limited-edition art print celebrating the 40th anniversary of George Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh.

The work, titled "Friendship and Support," which will be available via www.ObeyGiant.com on August 8, supports the George Harrison Fund for UNICEF's work with children affected by the famine in Africa.

"George Harrison has been an inspiration to me and musicians across the world. I love the Beatles, and George's album All Things Must Pass is one of my all-time favorites. What I also love about George is his political consciousness because I'm a passionate believer in using creativity for social good.

"In 1971, George's friend Ravi Shankar asked him to help the children of Bangladesh. George took action by hosting The Concert for Bangladesh in support of UNICEF. I have created an art print that celebrates George Harrison and The Concert for Bangladesh. I am proud to join the anniversary celebration and honor George's legacy by supporting the George Harrison Fund for UNICEF." — Shepard Fairey
