“It’s
hard to think of a political candidate in recent memory who has, in
real time, inspired so much creativity, exercised free of charge and
for the campaign’s benifit. Perhaps this suggests something about
Obama- or maybe it suggests something about his supporters. The
examples are many. One of the most prominent is the limited-edition
print created by the Los Angeles artist Shepard Fairey in January.
Fairy is best known as the creator of the “Obey Giant” imagery that,
beginning in 1989, spread on city streets around the world by way of
posters, stickers and stencils. Fairey made a brief statement when he
unvailed the portrait, noting his “great conviction that Barack Obama
should be the next President.” Poster sales, he added, would underwrite
“a large statewide poster campaign”.

In
addition to popping up on many streets, the image later made its way
onto a T-shirt… and apparantly onto the radar of the Obama campaign.
The candidate himself sent a thank-you note, and his campaign had
Fairey create a new poster that became the inaugeral offering in an
“Artist for Obama” section of the barackobama.com online store. Fairey
told Creativity Online that while he has been politically active,
there’s something new in the enthusiasm he now professes to feel. “I
just thought it was time to stick my neck out,” he said.” – The New York Times – April 13, 2008

“I
would like to thank you for using your talent in support of my
campaign. The political messages involved in your work have encouraged
Americans to believe they can help change the status-quo. Your images
have a profound effect on people, whether seen in a gallery or on a
stop sign. I am priveledged to be a part of your artwork and proud to
have your support. I wish you continued success and creativity.” -Barack Obama- February 22nd, 2008

“I
wanted to make an art piece of Barack Obama because I thought an iconic
portrait of him could symbolize and amplify the importance of his
mission. I believe Obama will guide this country to a future where
everyone can thrive and I should support him vigorously for the sake of
my two young daughters. I have made art opposing the Iraq war for
several years, and making art of Obama, who opposed the war from the
start, is like making art for peace. I know I have an audience of young
art fans and I’m delighted if I can encourage them to see the merits of
Barack Obama.” ??-Shepard Fairey
