Re: Ministry of Information -Behind the scenes of Obey!
no idea.. but maybe something to do with the spraycan she is holding.whyhoo wrote:but why is it titled "i'll ruin everything" ?!
And yes.. I think it's the best print-picture I have seen of Amanda (don't know have to say that without sounding creepy )

Re: Ministry of Information -Behind the scenes of Obey!
Hello all,
I know its been quiet around here so I thought I would say hello. I wish I had more time to post, but it comes down to time really. Most of the stuff I would share here has now been appearing on our social media to maximize our audience. I am behind most of the Instagram along with Shepard.
I hope that the Wooster 10th Aniversary is on all of your radar. Shepard has created 4 sets of 3 face ICON canvases that I think are the most import and complex pieces that he has ever created. I have shared a few teaser shots on the Instagram. I think that people are going to flip over these. It sounds like the work from other artists at the show is going to be quite impressive. It should be a quite busy week in the street art world.
The Obey crew will be in the city during the first week of August to paint a large mural in DUMBO. I hope that some of you will stop by and say hello!

I wouldn't be so cavalier about using the word 'flip' round here....
that said... looking forward to the work!

That stencil is fantastic!
The Wooster 10-year anniversary show is looking very strong. Love the Skullphone piece!

Thanks for sharing!
I like the set on the right!
It is a nice re-use of the station to station prints!

Re: Ministry of Information -Behind the scenes of Obey!
I am still around.... I have taken most of my content to social media: OG Instagram. Greater reach, and quicker for me.
It has been pretty dead around here and it seem like there is more discussion on social media which did not exist when The Giant was created!
Who is heading out to SC for the big show?

Re: Ministry of Information -Behind the scenes of Obey!
It's a shame this forum is being left to dwindle away really? ...lack of any "exclusivity" of news gives us nothing to build on to revigorate the place , other than to repeat snippets that have been picked up on other forums.
I wasn't around in its "glory" years , but when my interest in prints and in Shepard Fairey in particular was piqued on another music forum I used to use the first thing I did was google "Shepard Fairey forum" that bought me to this place on which I lurked for a few weeks before joining in , and from this place I learnt of EB. .....but I will always consider this place as my gateway into collecting all things Obey.....and lack of any real (semi) official input may dissuade others like me from getting the future bug?
I'm not and never will be a Facebook lover.
Is it too much to ask for the occasional "copy and paste" official snippets that get posted elsewhere to get posted on here even if it is just to give the facade that this place still has its relevance to collecting Obey stuff? .......even if its still just the scraps off the table?
