Neal Street Presents Shepard Fairey Jun 29, 2009by Richie Rich
The Carhartt Store, Neal Street, is pleased to present a selection of Shepard Fairey’s limited edition screen prints for view from Thursday 2nd July ‘09 at 7:00pm.
Shepard Fairey is a street artist renowned for his Worldwide prolific fly posting of propaganda style artwork and Andre the giant icon images.
Last year, the unofficial viral campaign of Shepard’s “PROGRESS” and “HOPE” poster images helped to bring awareness to Obama’s Presedential campaign but also elevated Shepard’s Worldwide reputation as an artist and helped to increase the huge International following of his fine art works.
Although James won’t thank me for posting this up, I thought you should see it…
Urban Industry interviewed James about how he came to be involved with Carhartt, what the brand stands for and a little about the forthcoming Carhartt Heritage collection due for August 2009.
Part 2 coming soon…

The Photos are now up in our Gallery from last Thursdays party at the Carhartt Outlet featuring Nemesis & Arrogance…
He is the linchpin of the contemporary London based beat generation. Now Paul White released his debut longplayer.
As a library producer for broadcast stations like BBC and Channel 4 the south London based arranger gathered experiences in producing dilly compositions that steer clear of the usual clichés. Beside this he caused some sensation with his 7inch releases for One-Handed Music in the last two years.
Now his debut longplayer The Strange Dreams Of Paul White come up to scratch with 21 hard to believe instrumental tracks, that don’t operate with the average sample approach and bewitch with a mesmerizing deepness.
Instead of digging to old Soul and Funk gems, he injects Soundtrack, Reggae and Prog-Rock atmospheres into his psychedelic vignettes. A sensational, well balanced beat carpet, that combines the hazy ambiance of Boards of Canada with the ruggedness of Madlib or Flying Lotus.
To make the first album release on One-Handed Music special, a limited early run of albums will feature lovingly hand-stitched and hand-printed sleep-inspired cotton packaging. Because extraordinary records need a exceptional wrapping.
Releaseparty: 06/20/09 – Plastic People – Shoreditch, London
