in 2006 Squier (Fender) released the OBEY Graphic Series, consisting of two Stratocaster and two Telecaster models, all with art by Shepard Fairey, who besides being behind the OBEY brand also came up with the infamous 2008 Obama “HOPE” poster
![(Wikipedia screenshot:) In August 2011, Fairey received a black eye and a bruised rib after being attacked outside of the Kodboderne 18 nightclub in Copenhagen, Denmark. Fairey claims the two assailants called him "Obama illuminati" and ordered him to "go back to America". He believes the attack was the result of a misunderstanding over his artwork, which commemorated the demolition of the legendary Ungdomshuset (youth house) at Jagtvej 69. His mural showed a peace dove in flight surrounded by a circle of Tønder lace above the word "Peace"; it was vandalized within 24 hours of its unveiling with graffiti slogans "no peace" and "go home, Yankee hipster".[177]](https://social.noyu.me/fileserver/01K5XEEZF4A486Z2PRS7NHG169/attachment/small/01KC0CBJ6GB7ZC4RCKN2YTFZ61.jpg "(Wikipedia screenshot:) In August 2011, Fairey received a black eye and a bruised rib after being attacked outside of the Kodboderne 18 nightclub in Copenhagen, Denmark.
