SHEPARD FEATURED ON JUXTAPOZ COVER FOR JULY 2014 ISSUE
I’ve been a fan of Juxtapoz since it came out 20 years ago. At the time, no other art magazine was addressing counter-cultural art like low-brow, graffiti/street art, etc. in such a comprehensive way. My career changed for the better when I got a partial Juxtapoz cover in 1998 (thanks guys!). The editors and everyone at Juxtapoz have always been very generous to me, and I’m excited for my third cover on the magazine which just came out for this month’s issue. The cover art and feature story showcases work from my most recent show “Power & Glory” which was symbolically significant for me as a Charleston S.C. homecoming. I was shown alongside Pop Art icon and fellow South Carolinian Jasper Johns. Thank you Juxtapoz for covering the show!
