We drove through Over-the-Rhine on a cold Sunday morning a few weeks back in December. If Cincinnati is empty during the business week, it looks like a ghost town on weekends. I wanted to see if any murals were left from Shepard Fairey’s retrospective “Supply and Demand” at the Contemporary Art Center. Fairey installed a score of them as part of a huge street-meets-gallery-meets-endearing or not-so-endearing public showing in the city. The murals are dispersed throughout the metro and surrounding areas. Controversy waited eagerly for the exhibit and some pieces were painted over hours after they were put up for being…well…controversial and thought provoking. As art should be.
