this is so stupid. he used a photo. a fucking photo that took the original photographer less than a second to shoot. the shot would have never been remembered if it weren't for fairey and his work that indirectly helped fuel a campain.
pride and greed... pride and greed.

SteveJobs, this may be completely true. But what if it were your photo? And you thought it was the cat's ass? What would you do?

i don't necessarily have a solution. if it were my photo and it was used without permission, i'd probably seek royalties, i'm just stating people are fucking cunts with their greed.
as for the vandalism - again, give him 10k hours of community service to help restore what he damaged? i don't know, but don't give him a goddamned pedofile's sentence! jesus fucking christ!
- pedophile, even.SteveJobs
- true, excessive. but i'd want to protect my work somehow, seek royalties at least. i think we all would?...prophet0NE
- as for vandalism charges... that'll be strictly letter of the law for him.prophet0NE
- hmm over the last i dont know how many decades... he vandalized my area...e-pill
- that equals a pedofile sentance...
what say you?? he gets life of artistic ability so he can what???e-pill - tell me what that what means??= what does he get? wake up!! its vandalism with no remorse!!!e-pill
- oh to cap it off he gets a presidnetial pardon?? i didnt vote for shepard... or his poster!!e-pill
- to quote SteveJobs...
"jesus fucking christ!"e-pill

Shepard deserves 87 years alone for stealing other peoples copyrighted art, photography and design. Then he has the balls to sue people for stealing his stolen work. He will become someone's bitch prison, or be part of the "Chick of Day" thread here on QBN.
What a tool!

"the most recognizable and influential artists of our generation"
- You are joking I hope, no pun intended.
- KwesiJ0
he's facing prison for vandalism though right not copyright infringement? first i heard of the vandalism thing, is there an article about it somewhere?

"one of the most recognizable and influential artists of our generation"...
...
... ? lol... c'mon, now. :)
- must be the Obama posterjuhls
- The Obama poster that he stole!Not_Ghey
- yup.juhls
- He is though. As much as i hate him, hell be in the art history books.baseline_shift
- not 'influential'...
... recognizable... maybe...PonyBoy - recognizable without question. opinions aside, this dude is recognizable. Hes in rolling stone. He was on the colbert reportbaseline_shift

Help understand this fellow QBNers? Most of us here are artist, designers, illustrators, photographers, etc... if I borrowed and or stole your art or design and then made money, fame and fortune from it would you think that it was okay or would you sue me?
- CALLES0
maybe he can make the jail pretty?
- ambermiro0
Come on...Did Campbell's Soup sue Andy Warhol? People need a hobby. Might i suggest...fixing the economy?
- Let me steal your work then, let me know how you feel then!Not_Ghey
- Warhol ripped corporations. Farey rips other artists.zenmasterfoo
- artists/designers create for corporations. it's not like campbells shit that canversion3
- Actually, Warhol was sued a number of times, I believe.Josev

[...] Shepard Fairey has been doing that for years to other artists, though... especially Erik Brunetti at fuct. Karma is going to be a helluva ride for Shepard one day.... one day. [...]

the cognitive dissonance here is palpable

"...one of the most recognizable and influential artists of our generation." watever

Fairey begs, steals and borrows from other to make a living. He has not done or will never create anything original or meaningful without ripping some other artist off or riding on others coattails. His 15 minutes have expired.

You should hear the radio interview Erik Brunetti did about 3 years ago. Let me see if I can find it.
