LONDON: SHEPARD FAIREY

I have not covered Shepard Fairy / Obey on here for a while, mainly because I have not warmed to the last few years of print releases.
However Shepard is now in London, a few legal street pieces went up last week around the Old street and Brick lane areas near to Stolen Space where he opens his 2nd UK solo show Sound and Vision. The show opens tonight, if you are on the first tier of the private view list. Tomorrow (Friday 19th) opens up for the rest of us in both the Stolen Space gallery and The Loading Bay on Dray Walk. There will be music from Z-Trip and from the images on the Obey website HERE it looks a bit more like the kind of work I would expect from Shep.
All will be revealed tomorrow then.


There will also be a print release of the show poster on Saturday 20th at 12 midday at the Loading bay venue.
Sound and Vision is a 2 colour screen print limited to 450 prints of which 250 will be available. No doubt the remaining numbers will be available on line sometime in the future. There will also be a selection of previous editions available to purchase, but as mentioned earlier I won't be rushing up waving my hard earned in their direction.
