It looks like downtown New York just got a little more Shepard Fairey; the ubiquitous OBEY artist — who was in town promoting the paperback release of Steven Heller’s Big Lie and Little Truth, Graphic Design and Propaganda in Branding — has been working on a huge stencil at Bowery and Rivington for the past few days. As The Measure notes, the location of this new piece is “the building that houses Sue Scott Gallery — two blocks south of the new JR photo mural where Fairey’s work was thoroughly defaced a couple years ago.” Click through to get a better look at the work-in-progress. Any bets on how long this one will last?
