Oh for fucks sake.
Graffiti 101 people, its OBEY an experiment in Phenomenology created by Shephard Fairey. It started out as a sticker campaign as a joke between some guys in a college and grew into the worlds biggest graffiti campaign, spanning Wheatpastes, stencils and stickers the world over.
Fairey added the "Obey" logo so people could identify it more easily. The Logo comes from the film "They live" and was featured as a type of subvertising.
Im a big fan of this guy. Ive got the "Andre face" stencilled on my Leathers. Hes living proof of how an illegal act can end up becoming a profitable business.
