“Documenting Shepard Fairey and the OBEY GIANT crew is not something that is easily captured. This exhibition is my invitation to others to view a world they may otherwise never know or see.” – Jon Furlong, 2015

“Jon Furlong may seem low-key, but like a courageous war photographer, he is ferociously adept at capturing art action as well as the results of the action. Jon has been honing his skills on trips and missions with me and the OBEY crew for almost ten years, even picking up an X-acto knife or spray can when needed. There is no doubt that Jon has a naturally great eye for composition and light, but these OBEY photos are phenomenal because Jon’s complete immersion in the process makes him uniquely qualified to capture significant moments and angles. My new book achieves a new level of quality and intimacy in the documentation of my art process thanks to the photography of Jon Furlong.” – Shepard Fairey, 2015

The opening reception of Covert to Overt is Saturday, October 10 from 1 to 5 pm. The exhibition will close on Saturday, October 24th where Shepard will be signing copies of his new monograph “Covert To Overt,” published by Rizzoli and scheduled for release later this month.
