From Graphotism, a great magazine, in 2003, Shepard Fairey on PEZ. PEZ will be showing at FIFTY24SF Galley starting on August 6.

The game with graff is balancing getting up like mad, with a flavorful delivery. It could be argued that even if hand made stickers have the flavor, it’s too time consuming to make enough of them to really crush it. Some dedicated individuals have proven this incorrect. Twist always had San Francisco and any other city he spent more than a couple days in, on handmade sticker lockdown, not to mention tags and pieces. Pez, a bike messenger, has crushed every city he’s lived in with tag stickers.

Some Live Painting At Karmaloop Event…..

May 15th, 2010

1eeba2478cag.web .jpg Some Live Painting At Karmaloop Event….. soon on cable Shepard Fairey Saber people opportunity mind media la convention center karmaloop cable show7 artistic art 7th letter crew

This was painted on the Karmaloop booth during the cable channel convention in Downtown LA. I didn’t know what to expect walking in, thinking it was just some random convention. To my surprise, it was all the media giants crammed into one room.

Of course the most ominous presence at the show were my very good friends at Fox News with a massive booth in the center. I Immediately got butterflies in my stomach. There they were, the mind numbing media leviathans who had falsely accused me for desecrating the American Flag. In my fantasy I would have blasted the booth and everyone in it with a fire extinguisher full of paint, but I came to my senses and used this opportunity to paint the flag again.

Apparently the people at Fox sent their cronies to photograph my piece. Who knows if any one really gives a fuck, but as for myself, it was nice to use my artistic freedom to rub one in their face within spitting distance.

Shepard came the next day and rocked the wall with his team.  Karmaloop is going to have some big things unfolding soon on cable TV so keep your eyes out.
