Is this by Shepard Fairey or not?

Here is a very interesting piece I came across at The American Hotel:

I think it might be by Shepard Fairy, but I am not sure, since there is this piece missing:

Artemio Rodriguez

I remember seeing this poster below by Artemio Rodriguez in the subway back in 2004. I haven't seen this one for a while until last week at MacArthur Park's redline station:

I love how he snuck his name in on one of the tomb stones

Puro Muerto

I went to check out the Puro Muerto exhibit at the Central Library yesterday. I loved it. Go check it out!

Painting by Emilia Garcia

***

Also, there are going to be several Dia de Los Muertos celebrations all over the city. This is probably the most comprehensive list of events that I am aware of. If anybody knows of a more extensive list, please let me know.

This is my favorite festivity of the year.
