This week on UnBeige

Well Shepard Fairey is in the news again... but this time it's for a really cool reason. UnBeige reported yesterday (May 5) that Fairey, along with fellow artist Kenny Scharf, is designing the aesthetic look for two of Lance Armstrong's bikes that Lance will ride in the Giro d'Italia race in Italy this summer. The two bikes, each uniquely designed by each artist, are part of the upcoming Nike-backed "Stages" art show that will benefit Armstrong's Livestrong foundation. While Scharf took a sleek, modern approach, I really love Fairey's approach that pays tribute to Italy's architectural history, according to the blog SuperTouch that provided the first glimpse of these extraordinary bikes.
