From Shepard Fairey's official website (ObeyGiant.com):

Check it out! I got a thank you note from Barack Obama. If he is elected, maybe I have a get out of jail free card. All kidding aside, I’m honored to be acknowledged by someone so important to the future of our country. Also, the Obama campaign asked me to do a poster illustration for sale on their site. It should be out next week on barackobama.com.-Shepard

Here is the 'thank you' letter Barack Obama sent to Shepard Fairey:
"Dear Shepard, I would like to thank you for using your talent in support of my campaign. The political messages involved in your work have encouraged Americans to believe they can help change the status quo. Your images have a profound effect on people, whether seen in a gallery or on a stop sign. I am privileged to be a part of your artwork and proud to have your support. I wish you continued success and creativity.

Sincerely, Barack Obama.'"

In the image of Mao, just in front of his nose, are some Chinese characters - upside down!

Shephard Fairey = art FAIL.

So...he’s now the Poster Child for the term “Useful Idiot”.

Good job there, Shep...enjoy your stay, compliments of the taxpaying public.

Thanks for you posts. Much of the background on Fairey, I did not know. OUTSTANDING (as usual)!
