Obey Giant is a street art campaign emerged from the skateboarding scene of the 1980′s created by the graphic designer and illustrator Shepard Fairey.

Fairey has produced a wide range of artwork from paste ups, stickers, screenprints, mix media stencil collage, to 15 foot mural installations worldwide. To consolidate his fame Fairey produced a now iconic series of posters supporting Barack Obama’s candidacy for US President in 2008 entitled “PROGRESS”, “HOPE”, and “CHANGE”.
