The seminal artist's recent art and poster works, and his
triumphant return to his street-art roots with murals, all in work
never before published. Shepard Fairey rose out of the
skateboarding scene, creating his Andre the Giant Has a Posse
sticker campaign in the late '80s, and has since achieved a
mainstream recognition that most street artists never find.
Fairey's Hope poster, created during Obama's 2008 presidential
campaign, is arguably the most iconic American image since Uncle
Sam. Fairey has become a pop-culture icon himself, though he has
remained true to his street-art roots. OBEY: Covert to Overt
showcases his most recent evolution from works on paper to grander
art installations, cross-cultural artworks, and music/art
collaborations. The book also includes his ubiquitous streetwear
and chronicles his return to public artworks. His signature blend
of politics, street culture, and art makes Fairey unlike any other
subculture/street artist working today. This book showcases the
significant amount of art he has created the last several years:
street murals, mixed-media installations, art/music events,
countless silk screens, and work from his extremely successful OBEY
brand.
