Wishful Thinking...

"The fever for graffiti art continued last week at the opening of an exhibition of 130 original works by American street artist Shepard Fairey.

Within hours of the opening at the Stolen Space gallery in Brick Lane, east London, everything had been sold, with prices ranging from £1,500 to £30,000.

'Over the weekend, between 6,000 and 7,000 people came to see the show,' a spokesman for the gallery said."

I am not sure what to be more impressed about: the fact that Fairey's show sold out within hours, or that so many people came out to the exhibition. Details here.
