25.01.08 00:35
Age: 350 days



"...Shepard Fairey is a graphic artist who would like to get people to question everything they’re confronted with." The editors of the format magazine talk to Shepherd Fairey




INTERVIEW It’s more than likely, that if you’ve ever visited a major city you’ve seen Shepard Fairey’s work. You may not have realize it, but it was definitely lurking somewhere near you. Nineteen Eighty Fouria is Shepard’s first real fine art show. We caught him as he was preparing for the opening. Unstretched canvases are laid out on the gallery floor as the man behind the Obey movement, slowly paces the space, explaining his work and artistic process. Ninetenn Eighty Fouria sees iconoclasts such as Joe Strummer, Bobby Seale, Angela Davis and Bob Marley, elevated to their rightful place as icons. Not of a New World Order, but of a Different One.
