I’m passing this along from it’s original source at Joy Engine. I’ve loved this piece since I first saw it, and it’s really cool to see one of the originals.
“Shepard Fairey, the contemporary artist whose irreverent works have deconstructed the meaning and methods of propaganda, ironically became the creator of one of the most potent political images in recent history - the OBAMA “HOPE” poster. The image found such immediate resonance with Obama supporters that it became ubiquitous throughout the primary campaign and across the web.”
