Shepard Fairey and crew were in New York City and Brooklyn for about a month, during which time, they were able to put up a LOT of art on the streets.
On the OBEY website, Fairey posted this message:
I went out to NYC and Brooklyn for almost a month to do a project with Pace Prints. Of course I had to seize the opportunity to do some new murals in the NY area. The crew came out for a week to help out and we got several pieces including three painted murals done. Thanks to Nic, Z, Dan, and Spencer for the art assistance. Also, thanks to Joe Russo and Sabeth 718 for taking a lot of great shots of the street work. And if you havent already, check out Martha Cooper’s page on 12 Oz Prophet for some in-action shots she took while we were working.
Special Thanks to all the building and business owners, as well as friends, who showed their support by generously giving space to share my art!
