This has been a big year for Los Angeles street artist/illustrator, Shepard Fairey. Most recently, his mixed-media portrait of our 44th President-Elect has graced the cover of Time Magazine’s “Person of The Year” issue. His latest partnership is with Penguin Books, who asked Fairey to personalize the cover art of literary classics 1984 and Animal Farm, both very important political works. The secondary school reading-list staples, sold with supplemental print sets of Fairey’s work, were available exclusively in the UK, until today. A signed and numbered edition of 200 offsets are being released here from noon to 3pm for $140 each.
