Shepard Fairey Time Cover

Obey hits again. The American magazine “Time” just chose the“protester” as the person of the year 2011. He is, in fact, the real symbol of a period of economical and political crisis which is currently upsetting the World: from US to UK, from Libya to Italy. Anyway, Time’s editorial choice hides another surprise: the protester’s graphic representation has been realized by Shepard Fairey, aka Obey, who’s now, more then ever, the artistic landmark for the most important political events in our current history.
