This was a topic we previously discussed on the Cafe.  A friend saw this article and forwarded it.  If Fairey only ran the photo through a digital filter, then yeah, I think it’s more like infringement.  However, if he did this by hand and even with help of digital, I think that it’s valid on [...]
