You might not know his name but you know his work. Shepard Fairley is that guy behind those ubiquitous HOPE posters, and the inspiration for their hilarious knock offs.

noticed that he's got a show at the Irvine Contemporary Gallery, right around the corner from the Logan Circle Whole Foods in Washington.
His stuff, even beyond the obamaganda, is iconic and amazing.
