American Foreign Policy: Fuck Off-Arabic Calligraphy Ltd Edition Print

Arabic Calligraphy Limited Edition Giclee Print: American Foriegn Policy II: Fuck Off
51x33cm Ink on Paper

A hand giving the ‘V Sign’ is depicted using Islamic Calligraphy written in the Diwani Jali script. While the hand itself reads the phrase ‘American Foreign Policy’ repeated several times, various other words are written in the background of the piece such as:

Afghanistan, Africa, Arabs, Choice, Community, Foreigners, Freedom, Homosexuals, the Humble, the Hungry, Ideology, Iran, Iraq, Islam, Mexico, Native People, Palestine, the Poor, Truth etc.

This piece is partnered by another piece ‘American Policy One: The Peace Sign’ which depicts a hand giving the peace sign. For those of us Americans, unfamiliar with the ‘V Sign’: the V sign is an offensive gesture in the UK and throughout much of the English speaking world. It’s general meaning would translate as ‘F%8! Off!’ or F%$! You!

Every print is signed, numbered and shipped directly from the artist and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. The numbered certificate includes a full explanation and translation of the peice in both Arabic and English.
