It's been an interesting week for Shepard Fairey who was arrested Friday in Boston on misdemeanor warrants for tagging property with graffiti based on his Andre the Giant work . The arrest follows on the heels of the story this week about the AP taking legal action regarding the Obama poster image I posted about here. Fairey has been in Boston for the past two weeks preparing for a kickoff event at the Institute of Contemporary Art for his first-ever solo exhibition, called "Supply and Demand." I'm looking forward to hearing his side of these stories!Update Feb 10- Shepard Sues AP

This is not Shepard Fairey's first solo show. He had one in 2007 at the Jonathan LeVine Gallery in NYC in 2007.
