SHEPARD FAIREY - YOUR AD HERE

[@topdeckdog]

People who appreciate art obviously love Shepard Fairey's work, however people who have studied design know just how outrageously talented this guy is.

[@josephrivas4762]

Of course they play fugazi. Ah who am I kidding I fucking love it.

[@xdingbatxX]

I love the simplistic colors.

[@Scyber_Official]

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon mashed together.

[@TeegMonkey]

A little bit of Elon musk in there too

[@killer53269]

i love shepard fairey hes hella baus but damb for a 42 year old he has the voice of a 19 year old LONG LIVE OBEY!

[@borizzle1]

That “peace” piece was very controversial, and eventually pelted with paint balloons. It is painted at the address Jagtvej 69 where a youth house was previously demolished, to intense protests by the punks/alternative community who frequented the house. The youths took offense to the peace offering by Fairey, because they had no intention of peace with neither the government nor the church whose purchase of the house was the reason for the demolition.

[@LoneWulfHermitica]

looks good with grey hair, hope i look that young.

[@79ped]

Tak Jeppe.. det var en super film :)

[@egopatterns]

I hate youtube comments

[@garrett3055]

I remember I traded a ps2 for a bunch of Belton cans, they’re so good those cans are masterpieces alone

[@vanessaramirez6240]

i like shepard fairey

[@cowskater5]

FUCK YEA FUGAZI!!! waiting room

[@MrWatchowtnow]

The guns? actually from an artist with a similar message, except more irreverant and original...this guy is something else

[@TheTukTuk2008]

Outstanding!

[@layerba714]

shepard fairey opposite ideology of 1984 the book by George Orwell

[@Mordorer]

Scary book for sure. It’s not a horror, but it should be.

[@feavmexico9]

@Itbeh It's the other way around rook! His clothing line advertises his work...

[@benward3298]

Its sadly true that a lot of brain dead hipsters wear obey clothing and they don't know who Shepard is or what Obey actually is. Its the same with the band Nirvana. How hipster girls wear nirvana shirts because they 'love the band'. And the only song they know is Smells like teen spirit.

[@Manofsnow1]

@Itbeh actually all his clothing is an add for his art work

[@saymstuff]

There is nothing complex about his art and there doesn't have to be. Art is art, you either do it and enjoy it, or you don't. If you are doing art to become wealthy, you're doing it for the wrong reason. If you are doing something people find appealing and you love what you're doing, you can become successful. I suggest doing something original.

[@allangutierrez5187]

what's on his hair,it is a paint or he getting old???

[@ATrashStudio]

Homie is looking old.... and this was 10 years ago... lmfao

[@gutwounds]

Fugazi-waiting room

[@alejajamsk9076]

for some odd reason it annoys me that shepard wears those small, tight shirts when he's working.. I would hate to constantly be pulling my shirt down & down & down but i dont know, maybe he likes it? respect

[@Bonesph]

What size is he. Does he get them altered or something?

[@dizmop]

his intro statement is not why people buy OBEY

[@leaderforoneday]

Thank you OBEY

[@Aetila]

I don't understand how someone could tag the wall so high at 3:12...people are really desperate to leave at least a sign, lol.

[@danielrey6953]

theres no mention of the type of paper

[@viiictoria]

Most likely butcher paper

[@taquitr]

3:12

[@NeilOG_]

@err0r agreed.

[@MrManaiat80]

whats the paste he uses?

[@Littlefieldpaints]

Artificial wheat paste mixed half and half with gel medium.

[@gawthh]

shepard fairey is a forty year old nark?

[@Turtleloverforever22]

An he does illegal stuff haha

[@adfasfuiuiui1056]

He definitely talks a lot of bs.

[@rontee24]

despite all the negative criticism here, how he makes art is his business. Even if it is entirely for commercial purposes, it doesn't matter. If you don't like his art go somewhere else, make your own art, do something better. As an artist, I wish i had half of the popularity and money.

[@ATrashStudio]

If all you care about is popularity and money you're in it for the wrong reasons.

[@stevenf5902]

Amen, mate

[@RobotronSage]

lmfao Shepard Fairey does more than just commercial stuff wtf

[@mashersmasher]

Hi i'm a french guy who owns a clothing shop. I want to make a documentary on graffiti and was wondering if I can follow you around and video tape you

[@AmericanWRITER09]

mashersmasher lol pretty sure he will never do that again. We do not need another brainwash

[@fuckstarvineskcrew2262]

Lol

[@fuckstarvineskcrew2262]

Do the graffiti yourself and get someone to video you lol

[@Jo_Actual]

I agree with you Shepard has inspired me to stencil in the first place and now i am in school for Graphic Design. I wish one day my art work can be world wide known the people who hate or dislike are just ignorant people.

[@canonaler]

Jose Cabanas how r u doing with that degree now, just curious

[@ATrashStudio]

I love shepard but homie destroying their entire local graffiti scene by going over entire walls already painted by the locals. I would immeditely graff over his pieces too if I was the locals

[@Mordorer]

That’s the idea.

[@wolfgang9180]

today i saw a old friend who got tired of me who is the world's biggest poser trying to fit in with the cool crowd. i saw him wearing an Obey shirt (which i also wear) with a eye and a tear. so i asked him, knowing he didn't know what it meant or where it came from, i said "do you even know what Obey is?" with a questioning face he said, "it's a skateboard company dumbass" and walked away.... i wish people acually knew what Obey really stands for :/

[@austinchambers4762]

I know he doesn't own the clothing company but is it okay to wear his clothing even if you know who he is?

[@Amer_Stickers]

7:31 SCARED THAT **** OUT OF ME!!

[@LegadosCulturales]

Question: What type of paper is better for wheatpaste?

[@danielrey6953]

no one ever says that part

[@Littlefieldpaints]

20 bond

[@TacticalTony702]

Communist \ fairy

[@ESLinsider]

Public enemy love it.

[@wallisfurth]

times of going out at night are over for him i think

[@BenaviaLeitavia]

Does anyone know which kind of glue/spray he uses so the paper sticks to the wall?

[@clementeferrer5070]

Stefan Leitner it’s called wheat paste

[@clementeferrer5070]

Wheatpaste

[@tdoronan]

wall paper glue

[@KarenSmith-wz5zy]

shepard fairey is my faverite artist but the thing i dont get is that he puts that star thats suposed to reprosent the devil in the hippy sign what reprosents peace and the devil wants war ??

[@Clownsec]

the devil isnt real. Its there to spark this conversation.

[@Littlefieldpaints]

Ying and yang...the balance. War and peace etc.

[@drewvasseur3123]

i love the fugazi!!!

[@naranjaatomic13]

QUEEE GENIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GRACIAS :D

[@stayfreshvandalz]

ahh fugazi

[@Cestdesconneries]

Only if they don't know what Obey really is. Sadly Shepard did sell the logo and shit, but it still originated from him man. I haven't been a big street artist, really just tags so far. But shepards inspiring as hell man, if i had an Obey t-shirt i'd wear it. But if fuckers don't know about shepard then i'd agree with you. Most people are mindless drones

[@BrodyGrim]

You know it's not even his clothing brand right? He just sold some company the logo.

[@petermuller8058]

i thought he did it to spread his messages via clothing...

[@Clownsec]

"OBEY Clothing is a popular clothing producing company founded in 2001 by street artist and illustrator Shepard Fairey as an extension to his work in activism" He still owns the rights and is the backer. He just isnt as involved anymore. He focuses on the art, and others focus on how to turn it into some fashion shit, which is just another avenue. What is worse? Emulating fashion? or emulating commercials? lol - its both done as art, to change the scenery and spark conversation. Personally if you were going to emulate something I hate.... commercial industry is even worse than fashion industry IMO lol In hacking we call this social engineering... mimic, integrate, exploit. You emulate them, by looking like fashion wear or advertising, you integrate by putting it on the wall, and on the bodies like everyone else... Then you exploit them by making them wear your messages instead of their own, and using them to your advantage :) Normal billboards or walking billboards, they are being "used" for a message better than NIKE and Coca-Cola.

[@Cestdesconneries]

Well he sold them the logo. He still uses it, he just got money for nothing basically. Pretty badass, but people get judgemental over nothing.

[@MrWatchowtnow]

thyose two pics are from the same asian artist...imitated xeroxed stole

[@MrPhotodoc]

Good answer to the question "What is Obey".

[@HeltenDaggert]

@err0r and you hating him, makes the world better?..

[@michaeltherion7459]

Explosions In The Sky - Your Hand In Mine

[@OxegenMBK]

Great video.lots of intresting insight into Graffiti

[@MrWatchowtnow]

I'll explain the movement....He takes art from artists from 50 yrs ago, copys it, changes it a tiny bit, and does pay homage to the original artists , we are talking direct copies....look it up...After that you'll think he's a fraud who cant actually draw or paint at all....Thats why u get whited out in ny every time...and if you call him on it? HE attacks you...the media(art) dont say anything, maybe cuz of the Satanic imagery?,,,the gov't loves that...for many reason

[@Clownsec]

You mean he didnt invent Andre The Giants face? no way! I thought he was Andre's father! You really are ignorant of how street art works lol

[@aguademar3007]
