Shepard's prints were so much better when he was stealing other people's images.

What's the point? No message, anything, he's just selling himself.
Usually I really like Shep's works but here... I just don't get it.

That said, I like some of these more than others, Bayshore billboard I like, the Berlin one I didn't... and the large one posted above is the only one I like of the three new ones

No message? Just selling himself?
The whole point of the obey giant campaign is translated in these prints. Very relevant to what Obey is all about IMO.

It looks like quite the opposite to me.
The point of the obey giant campaign was translated by sticking Andre's face on different locations.
But those print looks like a commercial of what he has done, encouraging consumption. Buying André was not enough, now you have to buy the image of the image in situ.
It is only my opinion, the feeling I have when looking at those prints. No big deal, I just don't get it.

Of course, its good hearing all opinions, sorry if i came across as if i was telling you, you were wrong. Its open to the individuals own interpretation.

New Obey Billboard Prints, by murdock on Mar 30, 2011 13:21:47 GMT 1, I agree with Banksee on this, even though I do not like most of the Billboard prints.
And I agree with Connecta, only liked the Bayshore and the one from above (because of its composition). Still, will not stick either one to my wall and can live without them in my portfolio. Therefore: easy pass 
Generally, I do think it's not even near his best work, more, like, ... posters ;D
