Acclaimed poster artist and illustrator, Shepard Fairey has produced a set of poster prints to accompany his endorsement of Senator Barack Obama. He will be selling screen prints of the PROGRESS poster via his website (obeygiant.com) to support a larger statewide poster campaign.

“I believe with great conviction that Barack Obama should be the next President. I have been paying close attention to him since the Democratic convention in 2004. I feel that he is more a statesman than a politician. He was against the war when it was an unpopular position (and Hillary was for the war at that time), Obama is for energy and environmental conservation. He is for healthcare reform. Check him out for yourself www.barackobama.com. Proceeds from this print go to produce prints for a large statewide poster campaign.”

For ordering informaition, media requests and more information please visit his website or contact info@obeygiant.com.

I have two of the Obama Hope posters and want to know how I can get those signed.

Also, I volunteered at the Cincinnati, Ohio office in March and there was a poster of Senator Obama on the wall that looked very much like the Hope Poster. It has “Change We Can Believe In” at the bottom with a map and the name Ohio to the left of the portrait. I asked for the poster, and was told it would be on display at the celebration. Before I left the office, I took a picture of it, and a good thing I did because someone stole it from the restaurant. Is there anyway you would be able to research and determine if this is one of Mr. Fairey’s posters. I have never seen another one like it.

Shepard Fairey should be called out on stealing from minority artists and for twisting the message of other artists. I read articles that open my eyes to how horrible he is as a man. He does not allow artist to comment visually on his art but takes, takes, takes all he can from minority artists and photographers. If he thinks that fair use is creative freedom he should accept that artists will comment on his work visually and profit from it just as he does. NPR did not ask him about any of his contradictions and ICA did not either. He is a hypocrite and steals culture for his own profit and messages. He is a rightest selling a leftist message for his own fame and fortune. Support the ASL group in exposing this fraud. Please read and see what he does from the words of this man who has been critical of this artist,

And the Supertouch article bashing Mr. Vallen is bogus. They only bash Mr. Vallen becauses Vallen is a true revolutionary artist and mentor of the streets. They do it because Mr. Fairey makes them money.
