\"It\'shard to think of a political candidate in recent memory who has, inreal time, inspired so much creativity, exercised free of charge andfor the campaign\'s benifit. Perhaps this suggests something aboutObama- or maybe it suggests something about his supporters. Theexamples are many. One of the most prominent is the limited-editionprint created by the Los Angeles artist Shepard Fairey in January.Fairy is best known as the creator of the \"Obey Giant\" imagery that,beginning in 1989, spread on city streets around the world by way ofposters, stickers and stencils. Fairey made a brief statement when heunvailed the portrait, noting his \"great conviction that Barack Obamashould be the next President.\" Poster sales, he added, would underwrite\"a large statewide poster campaign\".

Inaddition to popping up on many streets, the image later made its wayonto a T-shirt... and apparantly onto the radar of the Obama campaign.The candidate himself sent a thank-you note, and his campaign hadFairey create a new poster that became the inaugeral offering in an\"Artist for Obama\" section of the barackobama.com online store. Faireytold Creativity Online that while he has been politically active,there\'s something new in the enthusiasm he now professes to feel. \"Ijust thought it was time to stick my neck out,\" he said.\" - The New York Times - April 13, 2008

“Iwanted to make an art piece of Barack Obama because I thought an iconicportrait of him could symbolize and amplify the importance of hismission. I believe Obama will guide this country to a future whereeveryone can thrive and I should support him vigorously for the sake ofmy two young daughters. I have made art opposing the Iraq war forseveral years, and making art of Obama, who opposed the war from thestart, is like making art for peace. I know I have an audience of youngart fans and I’m delighted if I can encourage them to see the merits ofBarack Obama.”   -Shepard Fairey
