You know you have become part of the pop-culture lexicon when you have made it onto "The Simpsons." This March 4, 2012, street art staples Shepard Fairey, Ron English, Kenny Scharf and Robbie Conal will all be appearing on the venerable sitcom, in an episode cleverly titled, “Exit Though The Kwik-E-Mart." Hey, Banksy already did the Simpsons opener, let's bring some other street art heavyweights onto the scene.

Exhibit A Gallery's Obey Your Master: A Tribute to Metallica opens a week from today in Los Angeles—and we have your exclusive look inside what's to be expected from this group of A listers. On view here are a preview of the original works created for the show by Shepard Fairey, Nicola Verlato, Brian M Viveros, Gail Potocki, Patrick Fogarty, followed by what the band and their music mean to each artist.

On January 12, 2012, at a random time during the morning, Pacific Standard time, Shepard Fairey will be releasing a print of his new TIME Magazine cover for person of the year. That distinction went to "the protestor," so Shepard is releasing the Occupy Protestor print.

This isn't the first time that Shepard Fairey (Jux cover artist, November 2007), but perhaps this year has the strongest sentiment. For their annual Person of the Year issue, TIME Magazine chose "The Protestor," and had Shepard create the cover art for the special honor. Looks good in our book.

After we checked out the Wynwood Walls compound and surrounding epicenter of street art and murals during Art Basel week, we checked out the Wynwood Walls group exhibition that featured some great works from Liqen, Nunca, Interesni Kazki, Retna, Shepard Fairey, Futura, How & Nosm, Saner, Aiko, Jeff Soto and others.

We took the long, one block hike from the Underbelly Project preview to check out all the murals of Wynwood Walls, which were nicely lit for those who wanted to take some night shots. Ryan McGinness, Retna, Date Farmers, How and Nosm, Interesni Kazki, Saner, Jeff Soto, Shepard Fairey, and huge roster of others all have murals in the Wynwood area.

Documenting the evolution of the warehouse district in Miami Florida’s Wynwood neighborhood, Founder Tony Goldman and a range of artists share their opinions on this public art project. Featuring Kenny Sharf, Faile, Bast, Liqen, Internsi Kazki, Ryan McGinness, Ron English, RETNA, Futura, Shepard Fairey, Barry McGee and many more.

This past weekend MK2 projects unveiled a new mural by artist Shepard Fairey as well as opened an amazing group show featuring the art work of Shepard Fairey, Deedee Cheriel, Mercedes Helnwen, Mark Walen (Kill Pixie), Mel Kadel, Travis Millard, Matt Small, Samuel Lower (FresPrs), Lezly Saar, Aiko Nakagawa, Todd Carpenter and Steven R. Gilmore.  Following are a few images from the opening reception.

Exhibit A Gallery founder and artist Richard Villa III and skate legend Tony Alva will host the Juxtapoz-sponsored Obey Your Master exhibit, featuring a collection of artists that span the worlds of art, fashion, film, music, and skateboarding paying tribute to Metallica.

Shepard Fairey just opened a new solo show, Your Ad Here, at Copenhagen's V1 Gallery. As well as putting together a bunch of pieces for the gallery show, Fairey made sure to go about Copenhagen and put some new mural pieces around the town.
