E Pluribus Venom: Shepard Fairey's Recent Work - Back in Stock!
E Pluribus Venom collects a large body of work produced by Shepard Fairey and presented at the Jonathan Levine gallery during his massive exhibition in the summer of 2007. Serving as more than just an exhibition catalog, this book expounds upon themes presented in the show. The title E Pluribus Venom which translates Out of many, poison is derived from E Pluribus Unum (out of many, one) an early motto adopted by the U.S. Government which appears on U.S. currency. The artist's thesis is that many becoming one, or a loss of power and influence of the individual in favor of homogeny is a symptom of a society in decline. E Pluribus Venom is comprised of artworks designed to question the symbols and methods of the American machine and American dream and also celebrate those who oppose blind nationalism and war. Some of Fairey's works use currency motifs or a Norman Rockwell aesthetic to employ the graphic language of the subjects they critique. Other works use a blend of Art Nouveau, hippie, and revolutionary propaganda styles to celebrate subjects advocating peace.

FAQs & Polices
Why Discordia?
It sounds pretty, and very in-crowd. Which really sums up the items we carry since most of it is cute and you have to be in-the-know when viewing our selection of unique artist produced and manufactured art toys.
And we wanted a name that could cover a wide range of goods where nothing would seem out of place and we could achieve maximum variety of art, books, toys, stickers and more.
Why is your Logo and Apple with a letter 'K' on it?
It is the 'Apple of Discord'. The 'K' is for 'Kalliste' meaning 'For the Most Beautiful'. According to myth, it was used to create confusion and strife.
Discordia Culture Shop is an 'Apple Of Discord' in a crass corporate world by helping Creatives reach the public and denting the corporate bottom line as much as possible.
The only rebellion left in a strip-mall world is starting your own business and supporting independent businesses whenever possible.

How long will it take to receive my order?
Once shipped most domestic orders take anywhere from 2 to 10 business days to arrive depending on the efficiency of your local postal service. International shipping delivery times may vary between 1 and 2 weeks.
