Los Angeles-based street artist Shepard Fairey has his first museum survey at the The Institute of Contemporary Art/Boston, opening February 6, 2009. The exhibition, Shepard Fairey: Supply & Demand, traces the artist's career over the past 20 years and includes over 200 works. The exhibition includes his screen-prints of political revolutionaries and rock-stars, as well as new public art commissions that will be placed around Boston.
The artist has recently gained recognition with his iconic red, white, and blue Obama poster, his feature in GQ Magazine naming him as one of the "Men of the Year" and his cover art for TIME Magazine's Person of the Year Issue.
