That would actually be kind of cool if he weren't such a whiney d.o.u.c.h.e.
Maybe someone in green and white should be on one of those prints

I really like it. I think it is funny that it costs $100 more because it says MVP instead of Kobe.

Re: Kobe Gets the Obey Treatment....
I don't know if Shep has ever done anything to hurt my opinion of his work like this before.
Unless I view it as him lumping Kobe with Stalin, Mao, etc...
Then it fits.
Kobe is a narcissistic sociopath.

What difference does it make? Especially since Shep doesn't really pull or burn his own screens anymore.

Re: Re:
We're talking about silkscreens, not paintings. The entire point of a silkscreen is to mass produce images with indistinguishable visual differences---the individual input an artist may bring to the piece ends before the first screen is pulled. There are no signature Shepard Fairey visual cues to distinguish a print he pulled from prints pulled by any anonymous print lackey.

My point exactly. Hence the question: what difference does it make whether it is a litho or screen print?
Too many people associate Lithographs with movie-poster type prints; cheap, non archival, glossy, etc. Such is not the case with this Kobe print or other high end lithographs that notable artists have used such as: Dali, Rauschenberg, etc, etc, etc.
