Shepard Fairey, best known for his Obama Hope poster and OBEY Giant images, is a ubiquitous street artist who has been eagerly taken up by the mainstream commercial art market and art institutions in the last few years. At Art Basel Miami Beach, Shepard not only has work showing in the Convention Center with Deitch Projects, he's done multiple public installations. "Shepard Fairey: Public Works" produced by Country Club gallery in collaboration with the Fountainhead Residency and Miami Art Musuem is installed on shipping containers at 2700 NW 2nd Ave in the Wynwood District. The mural will stay pristine for the few days of the fair, before the security leaves and the taggers flock.
