Vanity Fair and MOCA Team Up for West Hollywood Mural Project

Vanity Fair has teamed up with MOCA–with cash from Cadillac–to commission murals from Shepard Fairey, Retna (a.k.a. Marquis Lewis), and Kenny Scharf to grace the walls of the new West Hollywood Library. The murals are already done, and you can check Retna’s here if you want. But the formal unveiling will be on October 12. David LaChapelle will photograph the murals for a Vanity Fair Cadillac advertorial in its November issue.

Funny. All that coordination to get murals from three guys who like to creep around at night and GIVE their art away.

Anywho, press release after the jump:

The three public murals displayed on the exterior walls of the new West Hollywood Library are the fruits of an innovative collaboration between Vanity Fair and Cadillac in partnership with The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA), and the City of West Hollywood.
