An Alternative to the Manhattan Club Scene: Guggenheim’s Art After Dark

This week, Shepard Fairey will be the guest DJ spinning a mix of old-school, hip hop, rock, and electronica at the Guggenheim. Fairey is one of the most influential street-artists of his time. He initially became known for his “André the Giant Has a Posse” (later known as OBEY Giant) campaign. Most recently, Fairey is the artist behind the “Progress: Obama” campaign.
