This is kinda old. But Just incase you haven’t heard yet…

It’s been a while since we had any updates on Shepard Fairey (Juxtapoz cover #82). Well, the artist got a big break in his court case involving the city of Boston, but he’s not out of the woods yet. Prosecutors said they dropped 14 vandalism charges against the Los Angeles street artist, who is best known for creating the “Hope” poster for then-presidential candidate Barack Obama. Court papers filed Tuesday revealed that lawyers didn’t have enough evidence to prove that it was Fairey himself who placed stickers on signposts and other public property in Roxbury, Mass.
