#美国艺术家#谢泼德·费尔雷。美国最有影响力的当代艺术家之一,谢泼德·费尔雷(Shepard Fairey)使用艺术来“质疑一切”,并追求社会正义。从早期的涂鸦艺术到他在全球各地公共艺术场所和博物馆中更商业化的追求中,费尔雷将艺术作为放大器来放大问题、提高意识和促进社会变革。他先是以巨人安德烈为主题制作了一系列被称为OBEY的贴画,这是他在罗德岛设计学院学习时的一个想法。他还将这一主题应用到他创建的一条服装线上。

 

#American Artist - Shepard Fairey 


One of the most influential contemporary artists in the U.S., Shepard Fairey uses art to “question everything” and pursue social justice. From his early graffiti art to his more commercial pursuits in public art venues and museums across the globe, Fairey uses art as a microphone to amplify issues, promote awareness, and affect social change. He first became a well-known graphic artist when he produced a sticker series featuring Andre the Giant called OBEY, an idea he came up with as a student at the Rhode Island School of Design. It was a theme he took up in a clothing line he also started.
