Last night marked the debut of the Obey x Levi’s 2009 Fall/Winter Collection debut at the Levi’s Times Square store. The release involved a special Obey x Levi’s Live Installation by Shepard Fairey to cap things off. The artwork for the evening included iconic imagery from Fairey’s range of well-documented styles such as the Obey Giant.

Releasing later today from Obey is a new Shepard Fairey print transpiring with the Detournements of Wynn Miller exhibit. It’s based on an image of a young Tony Alva and comes in two colors, each color limited to 250. They will be selling for $80.
Shepard Fairey designed the official poster for President-elect Barack Obama’s Inauguration taking place January 20th. A total of 10 000 prints were made, all of which are individually numbered. Posters are selling for $100 and 1,000 prints, signed and numbered by the artist, go for $500. All proceeds will be put toward much needed Inaugural funding, as the planned events could cost the city up to $50 million with nearly three million people expected to descend on Washington 20 January 2009. You can get your print here.
