Steve Jobs featured in Icons art exhibit, wins award at MWC
His Steveness was honored twice recently. First, he showed up in a piece of art featured in a New York exhibit. "Icons" is a set of portraits that shows off Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, Twitter founder Jack Dorsey, and of course our own iCEO. The art itself isn't that original (a takeoff on the old Warhol pieces), but the idea, I guess, is to enshrine the modern icons of the Internet in the same way we did back in the 60s with movie stars and musicians.
Jobs also won an actual award at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this week. He wasn't actually at the conference (don't you know Apple only does their own thing these days?), but he was still dubbed "Mobile Personality of the Year." Show host Stephen Fry didn't have anyone from Apple handy to give the award to, but he'd promise to get it to the right place. Two more achievements for Jobsy to place on his already crowded mantle.
