I am in Austin for a few days and would really like to find a gallery that sells Shepard Fairey pieces. Mainly looking for HPM's, woods, metals or pre 2002 prints. I went to the Hope Outdoor Gallery today and enjoyed it. Any help would be great! Thanks all.

Obey was part of #Meetd3 the launch of the Dubai Design District. The free weekend event includes live music, local food trucks, and an emphasis on Dubai and UAE Design groups. Easily my favorite public event in Dubai.

Shepard did not come over for the install. It will be four oft the album covers. I'll go back tomorrow to get pictures of the finished wall. Roam from Shepard's crew was the lucky or unlucky person that came over to do the wall. He utilized some local street artist help from myneandyours. http://Www.myneandyours.com. Ben Eine has a wall up here as well and there were some local artist installations, but not much wall or mural work. Hopefully we will see more of this in the UAE. Maybe next time Shepard will spcome as well,

It is a light box. About 24x16x7. Pretty sturdy. It came from a build out in one of the local skateshops here in Phoenix.

Wifey and I went to see the Specials the other night. It was a fun time and I recommend seeing them if you're on the fence. Walking up to the merch table I said to my wife, "It really smells like Obey prints." Sure enough my senses didn't fool me and I picked up a pretty nifty S/N print for the 40th year anniversary. Also signed by the band! If anyone is interested I can post a photo. I've been poking around online and have been unable to locate it anywhere so thought I'd share. :mrgreen:

Edit: noticed it was added to EB. https://expressobeans.com/public/detail.php/276881 The paper is certainly whiter than it seems in that photo.

I did an interview about my sneaker collection and the cover photo has the Obey 3 faces prints in the background.

Great interview!!! I am not a sneaker guy although I really enjoyed that!!! Helped me understand collecting them. My daughter loves shoes, and like you, she wears them! I could see myself collecting them but trying to downsize at this point in my life...... lol... enjoy, thanks~!

Happy New Years people!

Thanks. It’s @notudon. I wish I could read and post more often on this site. It’s still blocked in the UAE. Luckily ObeyGiant.com isn’t so I can still try for prints. Happy 2020 everyone.
