From the Guardian: 

According to reports, 41-year-old Fairey and his colleague Romeo Trinidad were punched and kicked by at least two men outside the Kodboderne 18 nightclub in the early hours of last Saturday morning. Fairey claims the men called him “Obama illuminati” and ordered him to “go back to America”.

…

Within a day of completion, the mural was vandalised by protesters, with graffiti sending messages of “no peace” and “go home, Yankee hipster”. Fairey subsequently collaborated with former members of the 69 youth house to redecorate the lower half of the installation. His new version contains images of riot police and explosions, together with a new, more combative slogan: “Nothing forgotten, nothing forgiven”.

“The new public library in West Hollywood isn’t expected to officially open until October, but at least one component of the complex is already garnering public attention: a new group of murals created by street artists Shepard Fairey, Retna and Kenny Scharf,” David Ng reports.

I went over to Subliminal Projects near Elysian Park to see Shepard Fairey’s exhibition “Printed Matters.” The gallery is comprised entirely of work by Shepard, including numerous prints on wood and metal. His statement about the show is here, along with other information. 
Guess which one I liked the most.

Exhibition Dates:
September 16th - October 9th, 2010

Subliminal Projects is pleased to present Printed Matters, a solo exhibition featuring the work of renowned artist Shepard Fairey.  Printed Matters, which focuses on the importance of printed material, will be on view September 16th through October 9th, 2010 and incorporates every variety of Shepard’s printed works, works on wood, metal, album covers, and fine art collage papers.  As co-owner of Subliminal Projects, along with his wife Amanda Fairey, this is Shepard’s first experience exhibiting at the Echo Park location since the gallery moved in 2008.

We would like to invite you to attend the opening reception of the exhibition on Thursday, September 16th at 8pm.  At the opening, in collaboration with Gestalten Books, we will be hosting a public reception and book signing for Beyond the Street: The 100 Most Important Figures in Urban Art starting at 7pm.  Contributors and Artists will be in attendance.

I’m still kicking myself over not purchasing the limited edition Basquiat print. Check this out if you have a chance. It only runs until October 9th.
