    I do agree with Joe Turnbull’s essay, and I also understand why Shepard Fairey keep continuing his artwork even though it might have raise so many ethical questions. Even though, the artists reserve the right to be able to express themselves within his/her artworks, the artwork should be within the range of appropriation.
