Art In Motion

The "Art in Motion" Shepard Fairey film was captured over the course of two days during the 2013 SXSW film and music festival. After a series of collaborations between Shepard and Sage, the symmetry in this particular mural was the main inspiration for creating a motion based narrative bespoken to tell the story of the art itself. The concept was to capture a mural Shepard created and reincarnate it into a standalone piece of moving art. The creators of the film wanted to emphasize the intricate process of creation while maintaining the visual aesthetic of the art itself. The piece was photographed and directed by Sage Seb, edited by Tanner Shay and produced by Arron Nelson Jr. The camera used to capture this was the Sony F55 shot in 4K raw. Primary lens was the Duclos 11-16mm zoom along with two Zeiss super speed primes.

OBEY IN CHICAGO

Last month, Shepard and the OBEY crew hit Chi-Town on the second leg of their 8 city mural tour. Along with the massive mural that Shepard did on the Columbia College Building, he curated Art Alliance: Provocateurs Show, which featured 200 pieces from various artists such as Keith Haring, D*Face, Space Invader, Jamie Reid, Swoon, Retna, Cleon Peterson, Pose, Faile, Jim Houser, Stanley Donwood and list goes on and on. Check out the video and full recap of the events and madness that took place while the OBEY crew were in the Windy City!

OBEY CHARLESTON

“Last month, I was fortunate enough to partake and document Shepard’s first major exhibition in his hometown “POWER & GLORY” at The Halsey Institute of Contemporary Art.  The crew was jamming non stop all over Charleston, knocking out 4 huge murals and a little bit of street.  Here’s a little montage from our time in sweet south!” -Jon Furlong “My new body of work, Power & Glory, debuted last week in my hometown of Charleston, S.C., alongside a selection of works by Jasper Johns in the exhibit titled “The Insistent Image: Recurrent Motifs in the Art of Shepard Fairey and Jasper Johns.” It was truly an honor to show my work with an artist that has inspired me, and being a fellow Southerner, allowed me to feel like I had a place in the art world. To be embraced by the city of Charleston in the way that I was and to have my artwork displayed in the public sphere without the threat of arrest, is something I would have never expected earlier in my career. I spent much of May in the city working with my team and the Halsey team to make this all come to fruition and into a GIANT success. It was a huge undertaking and I couldn’t do it without the help of Mark Sloan and his wonderful team, Dan Flores, Nicholas Bowers, Z James, Rob Zagula, Jon Furlong, Angela Chvarak and everyone else that helped the project come together. During my stay I was able to see many old friends and family and I’m so thankful that I got to share my art and the message behind Power & Glory. The decline of the “American Dream” is a reality that we all face and I hope that my work has helped bring some of the issues causing the fall to the forefront.” -Shepard Fairey Music: Glen Porter - Devil's Chariot (The Open Road and the Smell of Blood)

Shepard Fairey: Obey This Film

Film/Edit: http://www.BrettNovak.com / http://youtube.com/BRAGIC Several months ago I was commissioned by the Halsey Institute out of Charleston, South Carolina to shoot a short film on the infamous street artist behind OBEY: Shepard Fairey. 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.

OBEY x COPE2 Collaboration

COPE2 is one of the most notorious bombers in New York City and the five boroughs. I first stumbled upon his work in the early 90's. From the Bronx to downtown to Brooklyn he had pieces everywhere. The two color, very stylish bubble letter throw ups reading COPE, were just everywhere. The guy was definitely one of the most prolific bombers I've ever seen, and I've spent a lot of time in New York City. Especially in the 90's, COPE was everywhere. I found out later on that he had actually been out bombing since the early 80's, starting very young. Some of the stuff I saw in the early 90's had maybe been around three, five, eight, even ten years, who knows… but he just stayed at it. He was incredibly tenacious and had built up a huge amount of work around the city. Of course graffiti is ephemeral, but back then New York wasn't cleaned as fast, so his stuff was accumulating. I didn't meet him, I just knew him through his work, and I just thought for traditional graffiti this guy has one of the best styles. Of course, success in graffiti is measured by volume and he was one of the most , if not the most, up of anyone in New York City. I first got in touch with COPE2 because he had painted on a skateboard that ended up in a show in our gallery. I said, "Wow, COPE2….that guy's work is everywhere but I've never met him, I don't even know anyone who knows him. Do you have his email?" The guy that organized the skateboard show had the contact info, so I emailed him. COPE was super cool and said he knew my work well. He said he would love to link up sometime when I was in New York, so yeah it somehow happened.. by modern technology. We ended up becoming friends and collaborating on a couple of walls. He took me up to the Bronx and we worked on a wall there on a production he's maintained for many years. He also took me out to do some bombing and hit some freeway spots. I simultaneously was doing a wall down in Manhattan that I had permission for, a really high-profile wall and told COPE2 he should get up on either end of this wall too. We showed a little uptown/downtown love, and mutual appreciation. We liked the way the production in the Bronx came out so much that we decided on a poster collaboration. Martha Cooper, who is one of the all-time great graffiti photographers, shot the photo. So between me, COPE2, and Martha, it was a pretty epic collaboration. We talked about doing something with the Obey clothing line with COPE2. His work is great and he can pretty much do tags on top of anything, so we decided to let him do his thing on top of the OBEY icon, to also create a shirt of our Bronx collaboration. We have some great stuff coming out, and I'm always about putting the spotlight on people that I think have really put a lot of work in the culture and have earned the respect that they deserve. COPE2 is one of those people. -Shepard Fairey

OBEY In London Finale

OBEY In London part 3 takes a look Shepard's ideation behind Sound & Vision, being inspired by song titles, lyrics and musicians and tuning into the message behind the music. He describes how his everchanging musical influences translate into visual media and DJ Z-trip's role in providing the soundtrack to accompany the show.

Obey

This is a film based on the book "Death of the Liberal Class" by journalist and Pulitzer prize winner, Chris Hedges. It charts the rise of the Corporate State, and examines the future of obedience in a world of unfettered capitalism, globalisation, staggering inequality and environmental change. The film predominantly focuses on US corporate capitalism, but it is my hope that the viewer can recognise the relevance of what is being expressed with regards to domestic political and corporate activity. It was made entirely of clips found on the web. Music by Clark (warp.net/records/clark) Warning - this film contains scenes that some viewers may find disturbing.

OBEY COPENHAGEN PT. 4

In late July of 2011, Shepard Fairey and his team headed to Copenhagen for a solo exhibition at the V1 Gallery. We decided to document the trip in hopes of capturing a behind the scenes look into the preparation for the show. The show itself was a huge success but a lot of crazy stuff happened along the way. The following videos are a very honest look at the highs and lows of the experience. We hope you enjoy it.

Shepard Fairey - Obey to be Better!

Introducing the American artist Shepard Fairey is a bit like explaining whose portrait he famously altered for the "Hope" campaign that was widely used by Barack Obama's supporters in 2008. Since the mid 1980s he has created outstanding (then: street) art that is strong, iconic and expressive. Shepard Fairey is also a thoughtful, committed, and outspoken activist who revives the artistic virtues of standing up for the freedom of speech and fighting for rational and non-corporate ways of dealing with the issue of copyright. Obey the interview we did with him in Los Angeles in late 2010! Watch our complete archive of films on www.gestalten.tv!

"Rose Girl" by Shepard Fairey - Street Art Fest Grenoble - Alpes 2019

"Rose Girl" by Shepard Fairey Street Art Fest Grenoble - Alpes 2019 Adress : 5 Maréchal Joffre, Grenoble (France) - Student Residence Crous Grenoble - Alpes " I just completed my "Rose Girl" mural in Grenoble, France as part of the @grenoblestreetartfest. The mural is in a very busy part of town with student housing and the Alps as the backdrop. I could not ask for a better location! The "Rose Girl" is a symbol of peace and harmony with fellow humans and the earth. Grenoble has been making strides toward ecological responsibility, and I hope my mural can be a visual companion to the efforts toward sustainability. Thank you to my crew of Dan Flores, Nicholas Bowers, and Rob Zagula for helping me complete the mural even working through the rain the first day! Thank you also to Jerome Catz and Michael Foley and the Grenoble Street Art Fest Team for their efforts to promote my art and ideas in Grenoble. And of course, thank you to Jon Furlong for the photos!?-Shepard" (Official Instagram Shepard Fairey).
