To coincide with release of his short film, I’m Here, that recently premiered at Sundance, director Spike Jonze has dropped this 48 page book in full color. Not much else to say except that First Edition copies are actually available now at Nieves for $18. Deal.

Directed by Crystal Moselle, T Magazine sits down with famed artist Shepard Fairey at Art Basel 2009 in Miami. Fairey had several pieces on display at the fair (including two on canvas) and shows what started his passion 20 years ago. In the eight-foot mural that he installed in a vacant lot on 27th Street and North Miami Avenue (under the auspices of the Country Club, the Miami Art Museum and the Fountainhead program), Fairey displays all the art that’s gotten him noticed.

I Wait Here For You Forever as Long as It Takes is the work of German artist Stefan Marx. Being his first major book, it’s a selection from the persona drawing diaries, on which Stefan worked over the last two years, combining some of the finest paper paintings and drawings with book drawings and written notes. It’s an interesting collection of works, with much creativity being put into such natural creations, showing effortless skill.

The book packs 96 pages of wonderful creations. It’s available now at Ashtray for $40.

We recently turned you to a sneak peek at Arkitip’s latest collaboration with Incase, featuring Parisian artist André. The MacBook Sleeve + iPhone case combo has officially been outed and we’ve never been the ones to sport any French emblems but that may soon change. The signature Incase 15” Sleeve and Slider Case feature André’s distinctive “Mr. A” stick figure character once seen everywhere from city walls to high fashion magazines and collaborations. Both pieces are available today at goincase.com and arkitip.com, and also at the Carrousel du Louvre Apple Store, in Paris, France.

Hype Means Nothing currently offers a unique lineup of photo prints, which are featured on t-shirts and laptop cases, the most notable of the stars being the late, great Michael Jackson. Tokyo Dandy tells us Parisian retailer Colette began stocking HMN not too long ago, giving a much deserved push to the label. Some of these shots are just phenomenal and although we don’t endorse the wearing of entertainment figures on your body, some of these are actually cool.

Our favorites, you ask? Well, our top five dead or alive happen to be (in no particular order) Jay-Z, Michael Jackson, Notorious B.I.G., David Beckham, and Marilyn Monroe. Which shots do you like most?

Holy mother of cheesesteaks, Philadelphia’s got a shop we’d usually only find in our favorite Manhattan neighborhoods. A Continuous Lean turns us to Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction, the brainchild of Steve Grasse, the entrepreneur behind Gyro Mart and Root liquor. “Whether you’re searching for the newest Billykirk piece, new scents from CB I Hate Perfume or tobacco for your prized briar pipe, this shop has you covered. Nestled in Old City, this perfectly curated store brings a refreshing mix previously one might have needed to take the trip up to SoHo for. Art in the Age also has monthly art shows curated by another Philly staple, Space 1026.” Judging from the description, this may well be the best thing to hit Philly since Geno’s… or Pat’s? If you happen to be around 3rd and Arch, be sure to stop by and see what’s on display or on the shelves.
