Almost 300 posts GIVEAWAY - GILF'S HF EMPOWER EQUALITY, by Everyone Owes on Sept 9, 2017 11:27:20 GMT 1, Approaching 300 posts - time for a giveaway!
I can't remember when I bought this print - it was quite an early 1xRUN edition by gilf!, called Empower Equality. It's a very striking image and the message is arguably far more appropriate in the current global climate than when it was created. It's a BIG print - rolled and ready to ship with COA. The repeated message of EVOLVE is all by hand. After many years stored flat it's never going to make my walls - it deserves to make someone's.....
Here's some words from 1xRUN and pics:
This RUN contains 8 Black Hand-Embellished prints numbered randomly in the first 40 prints of the edition of 200 from New York City street artist gilf!'s debut print Empower Equality. Each print is uniquely hand-embellished by gilf! and will have slight color deviations.
"The fist is best known for the Black Power movement of the 1960s in America. While it represented unity within the race, it originates back to 1930s Germany. This symbol was first used by the Communist Party in Germany. It was a symbol that the party members would display to one another to show their unity against Hitler. The current tertiary rainbow colors represent all walks of life and my belief that all people should be given equal rights. It is time that all people are treated equally in this country- not just the people in power. Hence the title, Empower Equality. Each embellishment takes about 40 minutes. The concept took about 2 weeks to tweak to perfection. Getting it printed took about 3 weeks. I've hand drawn the word EVOLVE from left to right, and right to left. EVOLVE spelled backwards is EVLOVE- many people will think I'm writing LOVE over and over again. There are multiple color ways of this marker embellishment- I estimate that EVOLVE is written around 800 times per print. " - gilf!
Simply add your name below if interested in being included in the draw - I'll give it a week before I pick a winner at random. All I ask is that the winning member pays for shipping - it's a 1metre tube!
Many thanks.

For anyone interested in her work here's gilf's (or Ann's) site - her work has evolved on many fronts, with this image listed as one of her protest posters and also available in her shop, but not this hand finished version.

Worth a look.

Oz could do with about a million of these plastered around the city's as the vote on equal marriage rights is always in the headlines. I am a believer of all should be seen equal regardless of race, lifestyle,colour or creed but a lot of Australians disagree it seems or just can't be arsed to try and make change. Australia ๐ฆ๐บ is the last developed english speaking country not to recognise gay marriage rights which is truly shameful. Even Taiwan ๐น๐ผ are ahead of us. Now that's just embarrassing. Sorry for the rant and yes I am in andyroo0312. Good luck all
