THE LATEST FROM MALAGA, SPAIN

After painting my eight-story mural in Málaga in 2013, I was very excited about the opportunity to return to such a beautiful city and not only do more art in the streets, but showcase a broad range of my works from throughout my career at the CAC.  I’m excited for the public mural and the solo fine art show that opened tonight at the CAC Málaga.  The CAC is a beautifully laid out space that lends itself well to the variety of scales and configurations of my work and I’m also proud to be showing at the same time as D*Face, an artist I consider a friend and inspiration.  Check out the latest shots from Jon Furlong and Obey Clothing below.  Thanks for caring! – Shepard Fairey 

Your Eyes Here is not just a historical overview of Fairey’s works, but is a dynamic up-to-the-moment showcase of his artistic evolution influenced by music, politics – peace and war – and environmental issues.  The exhibition surveys the artist’s 25-year career, which includes paintings, screen prints, stencils, stickers, rubylith illustrations, collages, photographs, sculpture, and works on wood, metal, and canvas.

 

 

  

Your Eyes Here is open to the public now and runs through Sunday, Sept. 27, 2015.  The show captures and explores the breadth of Fairey’s prolific body of work.  Your Eyes Here will showcase more than 200 works, including an impressive grid of Fairey’s screen printed works which represent the essential form and building blocks from which his other works have developed.  Fairey approaches screen prints are that they are meant to be functional in working for the street or the gallery, building an ever-expanding mosaic of cohesive images, which can stand-alone but strengthen as a larger group.
