shepard fairey.

in amsterdam, i went to a bookstore one day and found this magazine "very nearly almost" which had shepard fairey / obey on its cover.
i bought the magazine home cos i have a thing for street art.
then i saw on facebook that the man himself, shepard fairey is in copenhagen to do his art in several place in cph.
i was like "wtf" and that i have to go and take a look at his work and probably get to meet him as well.

i saw his work, saw him working on them, saw him having a discussion with some youth rebels from the old ungdomshuset because they didn't like that he's doing an art on their former ground. whatever. it didn't help at all as his work @ jagtvej 69 got hit twice by vandalism. seriously...

i saw his work @ jagtvej, @ nygårdsvej, @ superkilen, @ krinsen, @ dybbølsbro station + went to his exhibition "your ad here" @ v1 gallery.
nice, nice, nice and i got his autograph & some stickers too! awesome...

it's okay to act like a child when i met one of my favourite street artists.
i was pretty nervous when i asked him for his autograph while he was doing his work @ dybbølsbro station yesterday.
but he was really nice and wrote his autograph in the magazine that i bought in amsterdam.

that's loveliess.

some pictures for yo, people.


























ciao.
