Art You Can Xerox

There’s been much debate as to whether Shepard Fairey’s use of Mannie Garcia’s photo as the basis of his iconic HOPE poster constitutes fair use.

Our version is realized in a different medium, with a different message. More notably it includes attribution. Fair use, right?

This Art You Can Xerox sculpture consists of a ream of 500 Art You Can Xerox photocopy prints. The prints are then shrink-wrapped to create a durable sculptural artifact.

The photocopying process results in subtle variations and degradations to the original source, making each sheet — and therefore each sculpture — unique and, thus, art.

Limited to an edition of 500

Based on a work by Sheperd Fairey,
based on a work by Mannie Garcia (we think)
