Shepard Fairey Piece ‘OBEY x PEEL’ to be Unveiled at MBP Urban Arts Fest – Oct 3 – Brooklyn
September 30, 2009
Dave and Holly Combs are not only the authors of our fantastic PEEL: The Art of the Sticker – they’re respected, active members of the street art community. As such, design mastermind Shepard Fairey has created a collab poster for the PEEL cause, which will be unveiled in person THIS SATURDAY, October 3, in Brooklyn at the MBP Urban Arts Fest – check out a sneak peek here!
From the OBEY site:
Dave and Holly Combs are wonderful people as well as the founders of PEEL Zine. They took the risk of following their artistic passion and have paid the price of losing their home. I created this print with and for them to raise money to help with their huge debt. PEEL has helped to support and grow the street art community and I believe they deserve to have the favor returned. Profits from this print go to help the Combs family. Please help out.
