With this sticker on your phone, there’s even more reason to pretend you are receiving calls from cool people you don’t know. Even if your social and political influence is minimal, with this sticker on your phone you’ll be sending the right signal, improving your image, and before you know it, your phone will be ringing for real. If you can’t afford an iphone, this iconic Obamatized aesthetic over-hall is the affordable chic alternative. Oh yeah, and as always the money goes back into promoting Obama. It is truly a win/win situation.

Sarah Jaye Williams knows art history, art theory, and has followed my Obey art and ideas throughout my career. She has compiled quotes for the “Philosophy of Obey” book by meticulously reading hundreds of my articles and interviews. These quotes touch on a broad range of topics and show the evolution of my positions over the years. There is humor, irreverence, hope, pessimism, anger, jubilation, and even maybe some wisdom mixed in with all the potentially contradictory thoughts and emotions. I think there is substantial food for thought in this spectrum statements. Check it out.

Shepard was asked to participate and create a print for The Laguna Art Museum’s exhibition titled, In the Land of Retinal Delights: The Juxtapoz Factor. The print was only available at the exhibition’s opening reception and sold out before the night ended. We were fortunate enough to keep a few to sell on our site… so here they are! The prints are available now, 7/1/08, and will be until supplies last. We only have a very limited quantity so we don’t expect them to be around long. 2 colorways, both editions of 200, priced at $35 each.

The print is sold out! Thanks.

The past couple of years have been great if you are into in wars, recession, and the re-election of idiotic leaders! Well, if you aren’t then you already know that this years Presidential Election is an important one - Maybe one of the most significant in U.S history . We are trying to do our part in making some changes and looking into a brighter future for our children… Yup, thats right, our children. But thats another story so I digress… To help keep the political activism and climate charged (as if the OBAMAmenon wasn’t enough), Shepard was asked by the Rock The Vote Organization to help get some voter registration awareness out there. Shepard created this design and printed up some limited edition prints. Some of the prints were given directly to the RTV organization and the others are being release here on July 1st. They are an edition of 350 and $35 each. GET OUT AND VOTE!

Check out that peroxided spiky hair do… no, it’s not one of the millions of copy cats spawned by the White Wedding video, it is the real BILLY IDOL. Our resident photographer shot lots of photos of us signing prints and hanging out, but then bailed for Mexico with the photos on his laptop. Now that’s what I call a BOLD STRATEGY! Anyway, I did the album package for Billy’s greatest hits album and a screen printed poster to go along with it. The prints are signed by me and Billy. The edition is 400. They are $50. Billy’s album “Idolize Yourself” comes out June 24. It contains all the classics plus some good new songs. The new wave meets propaganda package alone makes it worth picking up. I also got to interview Billy and we may put some of that up on YOUTUBE. Stay tuned.
