Who would buy one? There are already enough of his signatures out there on screwy legislation that his scribblings won’t be worth the paper they’re scribbled on.

Mr Fairey could have just picked up a pencil or piece of charcoal and drawn his stupid Obama picture – that’s what I would have done – but in the edgy, transgressive, taboo-busting world of contemporary art, that probably never even occurred to him. It gets more and more rare to find a piece of representaional art that is the outcome of the artist’s direct response to the subject. Instead, everything is mediated through the dead mechanical eye of the camera or the computer, with the artist serving only as a kind of technician. And not even that if they’re a big name like Mr Fairey, since he can hire people to do all that technical stuff for him.

I can picture Obama selling autographs on E-Bay some day, like O.J.
