Shepard Fairey Reveals the Art and the Artist on Dave Navarro's Spread TV

Shepard Fairey is the featured guest on this week's hour-long special of Dave Navarro's Spread TV.  The gifted street artist, known best for developing the nation-wide sticker campaign called "Andre the Giant has a Posse", joins Navarro and co-host Todd Newman for a conversation about the impact of his art on society, how he creates awareness through words, and his current role in politics.

The intimate conversation transitions from the philosophy behind his art to the art itself as Shepard gives Navarro and viewers a narrative glimpse into some of his newest work.
