Nice work.

So you didn't have an agreement with OG before the phone call when you were representing them authorized ("official")?

Re: Emek and Shepard Fairey posters on anodized aluminum

Idk...I'm talking about his Obama stuff. Spag won't own this because it's a bootleg but will proudly own Obama Hope...which is a bootleg. The irony of that is great. Comparing Shepard Fairey bootleging to P.Casso bootleging is just pathetic, sad and desperate The larger point is that Shepard had to...

Re: Emek and Shepard Fairey posters on anodized aluminum

Pete supposedly steals an image to create art for profit. Shep steals an image to create art for profit. The only reason people are curb stomping Pete and not Shep is because they adore Shep. It's the same dry mounting thing. At the end of the day if Pete is a bootlegger then he is in good company....

Re: Emek and Shepard Fairey posters on anodized aluminum

I meant exactly what I said. All I hear is a circular argument: "You stole that stolen image from the guy that stole it first!" LOL, that's not even a circular argument. Nevermind, I guess it's kind of a heady scenario. Let's just pretend that since Shepard repurposes existing imagery in his artwor...

Re: Emek and Shepard Fairey posters on anodized aluminum

doesn't Shep use other people's images to make sellable art? http://duplexchick.com/files/2011/03/apples-and-oranges-300x225.jpg Different colours on a different stock. How is it any different than what Shep does? Are you asking the question, "How is an artist appropriating source imagery for new w...

Re: Emek and Shepard Fairey posters on anodized aluminum

So IMO it's not stealing or bootlegged when Shep asked Pete to do these and Pete kept the rejects to sell now after contacting Shep with no response. What gives Pete the right to sell them? So if a band went to a recording studio to make an album, can the studio sell all the outtakes without the ba...

Peter is a printer not an artist. Artists hand-finish, treat, and embellish work that they have printed all the time.
