Vapors: Do you think you’ll be more famous when you’re dead?
Shawn Mortensen: Hell, ya! When I’m dead, I’ll be worth millions.

We say, priceless, Mr. Mortensen. Priceless. It was astounding when we heard about his death two months after we featured him in STATUS. But our great nomad photographer lives on in this comeback edition of Vapors Magazine whose staff were able to interview him before his Out of Mind exhibit last March. Friends like Shepard Fairey pay tribute to the free-spirited artist in this issue and pay him back more than he expected. A must-read. (via Vapors Magazine)
