El bombardero siempre pasa, o eso es lo que decían las doctrinas aéreas de los años 30, de ahí nace el Fairey Battle, un bombardero ligero que debía ser el soporte inmediato de los ejércitos británicos cuando llega la WW2. Pero la realidad es que no fue así, el Fairey Battle NO pasó, cayeron por docenas frente a la caza alemana o a la defensa antiaérea, lentos, poco armados, poco potentes y con una carga limitada de bombas, las escuadrillas de Battles, fueron abatidos uno tras otro hasta que fueron retirados a frentes secundarios Todo ello tratado de un modo desenfadado, pero fiel a la historia y la realidad de los acontecimientos Con Álvaro Ruíz Doblado y Sergio Murata Musica intro: Fallen Soldier,licencia gratuita, de Biz Baz Estudio Licencia Creative Commons Fuentes:Propias del colaborador Audios y música: Fragmentos de noticiarios y de la época Productora: Vega Gónzalez Director /Colaborador: Sergio Murata Nuestras listas China en guerra https://go.ivoox.com/bk/11072909 Guerra de Ucrania (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10954944 337 Días en Baler, los últimos de Filipinas (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10896373 Checoslovaquia el arsenal de Hitler (Miniserie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10989586 Episodios de Guadalcanal ( Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10996267 Sudan las guerras del Mahdi (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10991351 Con Rommel en el Desierto (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10991349 Chechenia las guerras del lobo (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10989674 Cine e Historia (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10991110 Guerra Biológica ( Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10989690 Guerra francoprusiana de 1870-1871 (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10987884 Guerra de Secesión norteamericana 1861-1865 (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10958205 David contra Goliat, Fusiles anticarro (Miniserie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10958221 Beutepanzer, blindados capturados y usados por Alemania (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10956491 Japón bajo las bombas (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10914802 Erich Topp, el Diablo Rojo (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10935056 Motos en la Segunda Guerra Mundial (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10896149 Propaganda en la Segunda Guerra Mundial (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10886167 Memorias de nuestros veteranos (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10723177 Vietnam, episodios de una guerra (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10753747 Hombres K, los comandos de la Kriegsmarine (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10715879 Mercur 1941, la batalla de Creta (Serie) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/10497539 Guerra de Ifni Sahara (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/9990031 Armas de Autarquía ( Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/9990017 La Guerra del 98 (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/5029543 Italia en la Segunda Guerra Mundial (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/6190737 Mujeres en Tiempo de Guerra (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/7826153 Blindados españoles (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/7824815 Ejércitos y Soldados (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/7825841 Batallas y conflictos (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/7825969 Armas de infantería (Episodios) https://go.ivoox.com/bk/7824907 Espero que os guste y os animo a suscribiros, dar likes, y compartir en redes sociales y a seguirnos por facebook y/o twitter.

Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown says the council must be involved in any final decision on a second Waitematā harbour crossing.  And the number of jobs that will be lost in the Auckland Transport restructure has been revealed - a net reduction of 20.  For City Counselling this week, Wire Host Caeden spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.

Auckland Mayor Wayne Brown says the council must be involved in any final decision on a second Waitematā harbour crossing.  And the number of jobs that will be lost in the Auckland Transport restructure has been revealed - a net reduction of 20.  For City Counselling this week, Wire Host Caeden spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.

Earlier this week, Councillor Julie Fairey moved a resolution to investigate Auckland Council's involvement with companies that are complicit in Israel's illegal occupation of Palestinian territory.  And this week, Auckland Council launched an AI virtual assistant to report issues such as graffiti, roaming dogs, and noise complaints. For City Counselling, Wire Host Caeden spoke with Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.

Shepard Fairey is one of the most famous artists in the world, and if you think about it, there aren't many artists who are famous in their lifetimes. In times' past, artists didn't get to live with their fame, their notoriety, the praise and scrutiny that comes with making art seen by man. We are living in a different era, art has sometimes permeated into popular culture and consciousness, and Fairey's' Obey Giant and Obama imagery are the rare instances where art becomes mega Pop Art, the kind found on tee shirts and on refrigerator magnets. Fairey is a street artist, fine artist, designer, clothing brand owner, DJ, printmaker, father, husband and revered muralist. He makes art in the moment for a number of social justice causes, and creates studio work that is meticulous and bold and innovative. As we say in the introduction to Episode 02 of Unibrow Radio, for over 35 years, Fairey has been actively pursuing a balance between image and message, creating and exploring the symbiosis of how to make works where politics, music, poster design, skate culture can all exist in a single work. What he is often asking, is how an image can, in itself, be an active work of the past, present and future.Recorded live at Fairey's gallery, Subliminal Projects, during the run of his new show, MODULAR FREQUENCY, the artist talks about how he uses his own history in his work, the constant battle between reactive work and experimentation, finding ways to rest, and the many layers of influences that he's drawn on to help develop his aesthetic. He constantly mentions he stands on the shoulders of those who came before him, and he hopes he has blazed a path for others to stand on his… 

Big Gay Out was held by the Burnett Foundation on Sunday, and appearances from some politicians were met with controversy, ending with a protestor's removal from the main stage.  There have been discussions of a $9 toll to finance a new harbour crossing this week, while Auckland council's Value For Money committee has also commenced for 2026. Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about these topics, alongside new council initiatives that utilise AI. 

From Dec 27 to Jan 18, all train lines across Tāmaki will be shutting down for summer maintenance, a closure which is expected to be the last of its kind ahead of the opening of the City Rail Link.  The current measles outbreak in Tāmaki is being continually monitored, with exposure sites being updated daily on info.health.nz. The public are encouraged to track whether they've been in possible contact with the virus, and get up to date on any vaccinations to limit possibilities of transmission.  Auckland Council are supporting arts initiatives across the summer months, with Music in the Park kicking off in early January, and Movies in the Park following in February.  Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about these topics, and also asked for comment following the attack by two gunmen at Bondi Beach earlier this week.

Artist and legendary street artist Robbie Conal talks about: His family history, including his two activist-and-politically inclined parents, his background in fighting the power; moving up to Los Osos (in San Luis Obispo County) as a permanent residence (back after the 2008 crash), but keeping a small place in L.A.; what he misses about not being in the city (he's lived in NYC and SF as well as L.A.); his first big moment with public art, through postering, which was born out of caricature paintings he was making of Ronald Reagan's cabinet, which he dubbed 'Men with No Lips,' and alighted through a large postering campaign just as Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, was opening to the public in 1986; how he's Shepard Fairey's OG, and how he was an influence on him as a future street artist (though Fairey said, "I can do that" quite confidently); his personal mantra:  "apply what you do best to what you care about most," which in his case his drawing and talking smack (does best) and American democracy (cares about most); how, to make his work quicker to keep his work temporal, he switched from oil painting to charcoal and then to acrylic with oil accents; how all his friends who have his art (mostly of terrible characters) have them in their toilets; and his most popular work, "Watching, Waiting and Dreaming," a triptych of Gandhi, the Dahli Lama and Martin Luther King. This podcast relies on listener support; please consider becoming a Patreon supporter of the podcast, for as little as $1/month, here: https://www.patreon.com/theconversationpod In the 2nd half of the conversation, available to Patreon supporters, we talk about: How he's sustained himself financially over the decades outside of sales of his work, from teaching to receiving donations to his postering campaigns to lots of (young) volunteers; what he thinks about street art, and mural art, today, and the distinction between graffiti, street art and poster art, and how his reputation saved him from competing street artists when he was postering; our different respective takes on street art, and how Leon Trotsky taught him that everything is political, and street art is inherently political; what he's learned from terrible jobs: mainly, you can't make good art, let alone great art, in your spare time, while holding down a full-time job (and doing the work on the side); the most commonly asked questions he's received about postering (how many times have you been arrested?); how part of your mission as a poster is muscling up for the consequences; and what the best thing is to say to the judge when you're asked why you did it. And for the final 15 minutes of our talk, he covers the breadth of logistics related to putting up posters in public/on the street, which he refers to as 'acts of civil disobedience.'  

Tāmaki Makaurau's council budget is among those impacted by the proposal of a rates cap, considering Tāmaki's average 5.8% annual rates increase across the 25/26 financial year.  Youth homelessness is a growing concern as discussions continue around “move on” orders for those without housing in Auckland's CBD. And the Skycity Convention Centre is set to open in 2026, with high hopes for what it may bring for Tāmaki Makaurau after its prolonged development. Producer Jasmine Gray spoke to Counsellor Fairey about these topics.

Producer Jasmine Gray speaks to Councillor Julie Fairey about the folllowing for this week's edition of City Counselling: Auckland Council has unveiled their long-term housing development proposition in the form of Plan Change 120, which is now open for public submissions until December 19. Key focuses include intensifying housing density in high-infrastructure areas. And this week Ngāti Whatua Ōrākei welcomed the world's largest indigenous education conference to Tāmaki Makaurau, bringing over 3,800 visitors. Accompanying the conference is Te Ao Pūtahi, a free public festival showcasing indigenous artistry, that is happening in Aotea Square until 7pm tonight.

Plan change 120, a new plan that seeks to allow for up to 2 million new dwellings in high density zones across mass rapid corridors throughout the city is currently up for public consultation.  Although hotly contested during the election period, it seems as if the city is on its way to unlocking high density development and a strengthening of its urban landscape against natural hazards.  Thursday Wire Producer Sanat talked to councilor Julie Fairey today about the consultation process, how people can get involved and what they should know about the plan change. Sanat also talked to her about the process of going from being a candidate to actually starting a role in council, what the inauguration looks like and how the Auckland Council building feels as new Councillors settle in for their term.

A new term for Tāmaki Makaurau's city council is rolling out amidst sizeable public transport changes for the city. Namely, the restructuring of responsibility that transfers primary policy and planning powers to council and leaves transport delivery responsibilities to Auckland Transport.    It has also been announced that 4162 of the approximately 10,000 special votes in the recent Auckland election were deemed invalid due to outdated enrolment details, or missing and incorrect declarations on voting forms.    I spoke to Councillor Fairey about her thoughts on the future of Auckland's transport systems and policy in the coming years, and her concerns around disenfranchisement of local democracy in light of the large number of discounted votes.

Auckland Council's Policy and Planning committee met yesterday to vote on a new plan that would zone the city for two million homes, primarily around train stations and rapid bus routes.  This plan is a response to legislation put forward by housing minister Chris Bishop which requires councils across the country to zone for higher density housing. This plan has not been without controversy, with councillors claiming that Aucklanders are being “put to the firing squad”  Deputy PM David Seymour has publicly disagreed with his own housing minister, arguing that suburbs like Epsom and Parnell don't have the right infrastructure to accommodate for this growth.  Advocates for the plan, including mayor Wayne Brown argue that the council cannot continue to drag its feet on the need for housing that is closer to the city, and is more affordable. They argue that it's better to build in places with pipes, public transport routes and job opportunities.  The plan passed with a majority last evening, so Producer Sanat talked to Councilor Julie Fairey about the plan change and what it means for the future of the city.

In this episode, we talk with Tiffany Fairey about visualising peace. Tiffany warns of the dangers of binaries and hierarchies in terms of the different forms of photography as it negates the importance of different perspectives. She highlights the complexity of the politics of visibility and the ethical considerations required when marginalised groups become visible through photography. Tiffany also explains peace photography and how it can be used to depict a desired future in contexts where conflict is still present.What you'll find inside: “I felt really uncomfortable I guess about this idea of who's taking the pictures and who's telling the story. That idea that taking photos of someone is almost like putting words into their mouth.” (7.37)“Often in these projects a lot of the kind of benefits and the outcomes aren't really anything to do with the image… really about facilitating something beyond the photography but also facilitating through and via photography.” (12.28)“It's not like peace photography is against war photography and we must have one or the other. I think there's a danger sometimes in photography that we have to think in terms of binaries or in terms of hierarchies.” (16.06)“The politics of visibility basically can not be straight forward when you're working with groups that are traditionally silenced suddenly becoming visible and having their stories heard. It's complicated as well because a lot of the times they're not listened to, so there's dangers of raising expectations that can't be met through these projects. We've had complications around finances as well.” (22.25)“Within peace photography that is one of the key considerations are these images to be shared or not? There shouldn't be an assumption that these projects are always about sharing images.” (32.31)“I think the idea of peace photography is asking us to really reassess what we think of as visually significant.” (40.17)“A photography of peace can make visible all these elements of peace that we might not always consider.” (41.03)What does photography ethics mean to Tiffany? “Essentially for me ethics means accountability and transparency in how you deal with others and communicate your work. There's always the danger that the language of ethics end up obscuring what is actually happening, we can make it more complicated than it is. I worry a lot about people talking the talk about ethical photography but we don't always walk the walk and it's not simple to do that. I would say it's this idea of ethics being grounded in transparent and accountable relationships with the people that we work with.” (41.52)Links:PhotoVoice Street Vision Anna BlackmanVoices in Exile TAFOS FotokidsNancy McGirr Ingrid Guyon PhotoVoice Statement of Ethical Practice - PhotoVoice - Projects, Training, Photography and Consultancy for Social ChangeLiz OrtonPeace Photography Guide | Imaging PeaceImaging Peace Everyday Peace IndicatorsAriella Azoulay

  Auckland Council will go to iwi authorities, government ministries and local boards for consultation on a draft plan that is proposing to increase intensification in the inner suburbs and strengthen hazard rules for new buildings.  Auckland's population will cross 2 million people  in the 2030's however there is not currently enough housing available in the market to house everyone who calls Auckland home.  This is exacerbated by affordability issues, where many renters and first-home buyers are being priced out of the market.  The Prime Minister also recently said that he wants to see consistent house price growth as the country grapples with a long-tailed recession.  Producer Sanat talked to Councillor Julie Fairey about this new plan to zone for nearly 2 million new dwellings in the city and why it is that Auckland Council is pursuing this change in the current moment.

Peace negotiations and reconciliation processes can change the world – but they're not much to look at. The shortage of compelling images is one of many challenges to making peace more tangible in our very visual world.  But if  we expand the concept of peace to include what peace actually means to people who have lived through conflict, then what peace looks like can be expansive. Like a portrait of a family reunited after a war. Or something unexpected, like a photo of a man walking on stilts through a refugee camp, entertaining a host of children.  Our guests this episode are Tiffany Fairey, a Senior Research Fellow based at the Department of War Studies at King's College London, and Ingrid Guyon, a photographer and participatory visual media practitioner. They've both spent over 15 years working around the world helping communities affected by conflict to tell their own stories through photography.  Fairey and Guyon are co-authors of Peace Photography: A Guide, which presents a methodology and approach that celebrates peace efforts and encourages creativity, drawing on projects in 21 countries. Fairey's upcoming book Imaging Peace: How People Use Photography to Resist Violence, Transform Conflict, and Build Connection will be out this autumn from Edinburgh University Press.  To view the images discussed in this episode, go to makingpeacevisible.org/podcast.   LEARN MOREDownload a free copy of the guide in English, Spanish or French; browse peace photography projects, explore Fairey's research, and more at imagingpeace.org.  Follow the Imaging Peace project on Instagram @imaging_peace.Read Tiffany Fairey's essay on the Everyday Peace Indicators project in Colombia in The Conversation  Read Ingrid Guyon's blog post for Beyond Skin on visiting Belfast as a peace photographer ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

In this episode of Moby Pod, Moby, Lindsay, and Bagel sit down with artist and activist Shepard Fairey for an in-depth conversation about politics, punk rock, skateboarding, and the roots of his uncompromising art. Their conversation is an exploration of how Fairey's early experiences with DIY culture and rebellion shaped his creative philosophy and maintained his drive to keep creating. He shares the origin story behind his iconic “Obey” campaign and reflects on the power of art to challenge authority and inspire social change. Shepard on Instagram — We want to hear from you!

On the 25th of June, our regular City Counselling guest Julie Fairey was involved in a road collision while she was biking in her local area. Fairey wrote about the close call, which she says could have been a lot worse, in a piece published in the Spinoff, as a reinvigoration of her previous advocacy around the need for road safety measures that improve how safely and efficiently Aucklanders can get around the city. As well, this week we've seen the release of the State of the City report, which compares Auckland on metrics including opportunity and prosperity, culture and experience, place and connectivity, innovation and knowledge, and resilience and sustainability. The report found that we are ‘falling behind' other cities, with the biggest emphasis placed on our poor economic productivity in comparison with similar locations. Producer Sara spoke with Julie Fairey about both of these topics, firstly by asking her what motivated her to write about her recent collision.

Housing intensification is a key priority for Auckland Council as Auckland's population is forecast to reach 2.3 million by 2050.  But as planning for growth continues, some Auckland residents have expressed concern about the approval of developments in areas on flood plains or particularly prone to natural disasters. With Kāinga Ora selling homes as ‘high risk investments' in areas which were impacted by flooding in recent years, and 15 percent of all granted consents for new builds by Auckland Council being on floodplains, I spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about how the council is taking into account these issues for the coming years.

Since Wednesday last week, Auckland and the wider Northland region were warned of heavy rain and winds expected across the North Island.  On Friday night however, as severe thunderstorms struck Auckland, residents were not sent severe weather alerts until after the worst part of the storm had already arrived. Many Aucklanders have called out the slow response system, in an effort yet again to revitalise discussions around Auckland's storm and natural disaster preparedness. As well, Auckland's public transport system is under the microscope this month as Aucklanders endure just over a fortnight without train services, as workers seek to speed up the completion of Kiwi Rail. Yesterday, Transport Minister Chris Bishop also announced a multi-billion dollar project for a Northland Expressway that he says will improve public transport.  In the meantime, public transport prices have increased — for ratepayers and users —- translating to less bang and more buck for Aucklanders.  Producer Sara spoke with Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics, firstly by asking if she was satisfied with Auckland Council's response pace in the lead up to severe weather conditions.

Auckland Council's Community Committee has sent a ‘please help' letter to the government after reports from their Community Impact team showed a 53% rise in the number of people sleeping rough over the past four months. This follows changes last year by the Ministry of Social Development to the rules surrounding emergency housing, introducing stricter entry criteria and new requirements which make it difficult to stay.  While Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, earlier this week, denied that these changes have led to an increase in homelessness, Housing First Auckland programme manager Rami Alrudani said that outreach workers have been stretched thin, dealing with “more and more homelessness every day”. Producer Sara spoke with Councillor Julie Fairey about the rise in homelessness in Tāmaki Makaurau.  As well, Auckland Council are trialling an AI digital assistant to help improve their customer support services. The ‘Ask Auckland Council' pilot, presented at February's Revenue, Expenditure and Value Committee, is being funded by Google Cloud at no cost to ratepayers. Auckland Council receives 1.5 million calls every year and coordinates region-wide services across multiple platforms. The new system is designed to bridge the gap between Aucklanders and digital services, reducing the effort required to seek out information Starting on the topic of homelessness, Sara asked Julie if she was surprised to see a stark increase in the latest data around the number of people sleeping rough.

Last week, Auckland Council presented a proposal to shift Kumeū's town centre as an effort to address the area's history of flooding.  Additionally, late last month public consultation opened on Council's proposed bed night visitor levy. The levy would fill a budget gap of $7 million for major events in Tāmaki Makaurau. For City Counselling this week, Sofia spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics, beginning by asking her what current issues Kumeū is facing that informed the proposal to move its town centre.

Shepard Fairey is not just an artist; he's a cultural force, a visual historian, and an unyielding advocate for social justice. Best known for his iconic "OBEY" campaign and the "Hope" poster that became synonymous with Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, Fairey's work transcends the boundaries of traditional art. It occupies the intersection of pop culture, politics, and activism, challenging viewers to think critically about the world around them. In this exclusive interview, Shepard delves into his creative process, the role of art in preserving democracy, and how his deeply-held values shape every piece he creates. He also shares personal insights into his life, including the pivotal moments that have influenced his evolution as an artist and an advocate. As the world continues to grapple with social, political, and environmental challenges, Shepard Fairey remains a powerful voice for change, using his art as both a mirror and a catalyst for the better future we all strive for.

Maungawhau station, formerly Mt Eden station, closed in July 2020 for reconstruction as part of the City Rail Link. Delays during the COVID-19 lockdowns extended the construction process, and the station is now expected to reopen in early 2024.  Starting on October 14th, Western line trains have been running at reduced frequency to allow for testing at the station, indicating that the station may be almost completed. Trains across the city have also been affected by unplanned disruptions over the past few months, most recently on the Western line with a series of power outages.  For City Counselling this week I asked Councillor Julie Fairey about the timeline on Maungawhau station, the upcoming Te Waihorotiu and Karanga-ā-hape stations, and power outages across the rail network.

Auckland Council's Transport Emissions Reduction Pathway lays out a series of targets for reducing Auckland's transport emissions by almost 65% within the next 6 years.  Some of the goals include cutting car trips from making up 94% of distance travelled around the city to 47%, pump cycle trips up from 1% to 5% and increase bus trips from 3 % to 12%.  Additionally, next week is Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori.  The week is a wider government sponsored initiative intended to promote the use of te reo Māori as well as awareness, education, and public engagement.  For our weekly catch up with Auckland Council, Sofia spoke to Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics.

Last week was the annual Local Government New Zealand conference.  Although Auckland Council voted to leave Local Government New Zealand in March last year, notably at the conference, Prime Minister Christopher Luxon said he wants councils to “do the basics brilliantly” and not be distracted by “nice-to-haves” and that Cabinet was looking into limiting council expenditure as a result.  Additionally, Auckland Council is currently seeking public input on the future of coastal management in response to the climate crisis.  The Council's Shoreline Adaptation Programme and Plans look at how Council responds to coastal hazards and climate change over the next 100 years. Producer Sofia caught up with Councillor Julie Fairey about both of these topics. 

This week on MissionCTRL, Ramon and the PD Flight Crew are joined by Joshua “Josh” Paiz, a fellow artist, auto enthusiast and founder of JPaiz Studios, for a riveting conversation about cars and his own personal evolution as a muralist. Paiz discovered his interest in art when his mother, a domestic worker, would bring home discarded scrap paper, which he used to create and entertain himself. As he immersed himself in the creative process, a passion started burning within him. Paiz faced the same frustration with the educational system that Sir Ken Robinson described as stifling students through a one-size-fits-all approach instead of nurturing their unique talents and creativity.  Paiz was fortunate to be surrounded by educators who fanned the flames of his passion and a mother who sacrificed by working odd jobs and collecting cans to place him in specialized art classes.  Though he was bullied as a kid, he discovered that his artistic talent gave him street credibility. Josh's path to becoming a full-time freelance artist wasn't without challenges.  Josh's journey mirrors that of Frank Shepard Fairey, the founder of Obey, who also took significant artistic risks along his path. Fairey's bold and unconventional approach to street art challenged societal norms and established him as a pioneering figure in the art world. Like Paiz, Fairey faced obstacles but leveraged his creativity to make a lasting impact.  Tune in to hear how Josh's passion allowed him to travel the world, painting over 60 murals worldwide and counting . . .

Shepard Fairey was drawn to making art since he was young. A curious mind, a strong work ethic, an inspired creative spirit, a growing compassion for the situations of others, and a deepening understanding of the intricacies of how our world works (and yes, more than a touch of a 'rebel spirit' nurtured by skateboard culture and punk rock) has shaped the work of that young artist into some of the most powerful, most well known, and most consequential art of our time.  Art that matters! Do you know his work? Yes, absolutely you do, although you may not know it, because for Fairey - pronounced as you would the "tooth-_____" (no relation) - the goal has never been acclaim or notoriety. His effort always leans - and more often, strides - toward problem solving, commentary, action, and urging, more often pushing us to think and care about others, to care about democracy, and justice, to care about the growing privilege of some often at the expense of others. Is there more to say?  Yes, of course! Here's what Wikipedia begins with "Frank Shepard Fairey (born February 15, 1970) is an American contemporary artist, activist and founder of OBEY Clothing who emerged from the skateboarding scene. In 1989 he designed the "Andre the Giant Has a Posse" (...OBEY...) sticker campaign while attending the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD).""Fairey designed the Barack Obama "Hope" poster for the 2008 U.S. presidential campaign. The Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, has described him as one of the best known and most influential street artists. His work is included in the collections at The Smithsonian; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Modern Art in New York City; the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego; the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C.; the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond; and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London."But that barely scratches the surface.I had a wonderful conversation with Shepard. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.https://obeygiant.com/https://obeyclothing.com/
