Shepard Fairey : Obey This Film
I seriously doubt that you actually needed this reminder, but just in case: here's a 11 minute and 42 seconds proof of what a super rad guy Shepard Fairey is. Realized by filmmaker/skater Brett Novak and commissioned by The Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art.
“ I definitely knew Shepard's work, whether it be that repetitive face of Andre the Giant popping up at every street corner I've ever been on, or as the Obama Poster that definitely did more for an election than just add aesthetic to it - but I was not aware at how incredibly inspiring Shepard would turn out to be. For a new understanding of how this skateboarder turned mega famed street star turned out to be, check this film out.“ - Brett Novak. (Forty)
