Authentic American Streetwear

August 21, 2007

Pieces Coming Together.

By Paul-is-a-Future-Relic @ 4:06 pm

Rory and I went to Studio Number One (Shepard Fairey’s design firm) to pick up the last piece for the XLARGE Unity Group Art Show. They’re located in the Wiltern Theatre building on Western and Wilshire, which I recently read, use to be considered the absolute center of Los Angeles.

Not since Andy Warhol, or maybe even Marshall McLuhan, has someone changed the way so many people look at media and commercialized society. It can be successfully argued that his reach surpasses that of the aforementioned lumanaries. Who would of thought that Shep could start a revolution by modestly making wheat paste posters in the RISD basement and slapping stickers on crosswalk signs? Despite all the success and accolades he still remains very humble and approachable.


Rory looking suspect.


Shep in the lab mixing up concoctions.


Phenomenology contextualized.


A great example of phenomenology in relation to the surrounding environment and the American landscape.


I spy Banksy.


I spy The London Police.


I spy WK.
