INTERVIEW: DAVID CHOE MAKES $200 MILLION ON FACEBOOK MURAL
As you may have heard, street artist David Choe has made headlines after accepting stock in stead of cash for a mural at FaceBook headquarters long ago, much before those stocks garnered him some of the over $200 million he is now worth. Being a successful and probably quite rich artist on his own, Choe sits down for his first video interview since speaking with Howard Stern on air about how the money has changed his life.
In true David Choe fashion, the artist wishes away the attention and claims he would rather give up the money in exchange for some privacy. Choe has always been respected in graffiti communities as being a street artist with some balls, and his transition to the gallery space has been met with more praise than most artists from the street. You can see why with his state of realness in this video.
