It’s official: the Contemporary Arts Center today announced that hot Shepard Fairey retrospective currently at Boston’s Institute for Contemporary Art will be coming there for the 2009-10 season. Fairey, creator of the famous Obama posters, will also come when the show opens here to do public art and participate in CAC events.—-
Also scheduled for the upcoming season are group shows Young Country and The Junex Collection, plus single-artist exhibitions devoted to Cincinnati-based experimentalist C. Spencer Yeh and such national/international artists as Marilyn Minter, Pat Steir, India’s Shilpa Gupta, and Brazil’s Ernesto Neto.
My report on the CAC season is here.
