David Cameron and Barack Obama Swap Street and Pop Art

The UK’s new Prime Minister visited the Prez with gifts a-plenty, notably – 21st Century City, a painting by street artist, Eine, who is having a “weird day” now. In turn, Obama presented Cameron with pop artist Ed Ruscha’s lithograph Column with Speed Lines. Seeing how Eine is on an alphabet kick lately, check out the lowercase letters he recently free-handed all over London’s shutters.
