Shepard Fairey will have a second solo retrospective, the Shepard Fairey: Supply and Demand Exhibition, at The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA on October 17th. The exhibition will run through January 21, 2010 to celebrate the artist’s work during the last two decades. Organized by the Institute of Contemporary Art in Boston, the show will explore illustrations, screen prints, collages, works of wood, metal and canvas produced by Fairey. Visitors will be able to view such projects as Andre the Giant (1989) to the OBEY GIANT posters.
A special print has been produced for this special exhibit at the Andy Warhol Museum, which will be released on October 18th. The print is only available in person at the museum. In honor of Andy Warhol, Fairey created an alternative colorway to the Global Warning image to pay homage to the iconic pop artist. Fariey will also install various mural projects throughout Pittsburgh by October 17th.
Warhol is one of my favorites artists and Fariey doesn’t fall too far behind him as well. If you’re in the Pittsburgh area, this is an exhibit not to miss!
