Katsu Vs Picasso

We saw this and thought it was a fun little piece, but after looking through the comments it seamed to really create and polo-rise some heated responses.

A nice little sequence from SUSO33 Madrid, Spain.

Cheba Cheba Y'all.

Caught in the act, but all above board.

Looks like a little commission for the People's Republic of Stokes Croft.


When asked about his installation at the Crimes of Passion exibition, he explained how stiked was by the opportunity to deface the INSIDE of the RWA.

Titanic tags

Clever stuff from the Graffiti Research Labs. They say...

"In its simplest form the Laser Tag system is a camera and laptop setup, tracking a green laser point across
the face of a building and generating graphics based on the laser's position which then get projected back
onto the building with a high power projector."

Big L.

They say...

"BEAUTIFUL LOSERS celebrates the spirit behind one of the most influential cultural moments of a generation

In the early 1990's a loose-knit group of likeminded outsiders found common ground at a little NYC storefront gallery. Rooted in the DIY (do-it-yourself) subcultures of skateboarding, surf, punk, hip hop & graffiti, they made art that reflected the lifestyles they led. Developing their craft with almost no influence from the "establishment" art world, this group, and the subcultures they sprang from, have now become a movement that has been transforming pop culture."

On the brink of Krink.

Craig "KR" Costello was a graf writer running from the cops like everyone else during the 90's. This film tells the story of his journey from notoriety to notes in his pocket.

Mulled cider and art.

Friend & Co. had their Christmas show yesterday, including work from 45RPM, Mr Jago and Faris Badwan.

We went down to take a look around.

Non caged heart.

Sickboy Exhibition.

Stay Free launches on December 3 from 18:30 to 22:00, and is open to the general public from December 4-10, 2008 between 12:00-18:00 at The Tramshed 6-8 Garden Walk Shoreditch London EC2A 3EQ.

He is touted as one of the most bankable artists, but Sickboy refuses to play by the rules of the mainstream art industry. Turning down offers by auction houses and galleries, the British artist defiantly stays true to his roots as he proved by the caged heart installation he dropped outside The Tate Modern earlier this week in response to the corporate backing of a graffiti show held there.

Guerilla Galleries: Credit Crunch Art.

We headed down to the 1st birthday party for Guerrilla Galleries on Bristol's Gloucester Rd. It featured new work from well known graff artists such as Ghostboy, and an impressive installation from Ziml. The pieces are cheaptastic.

The place was busy....few vacant onlookers around mind....but then it was Friday night.

Newcomers such as this young guy got to make their mark buy painting real time and exhibiting straight on the wall.

Bankable graffiti, bashing santa.

We saw this van outside a great little bar in Bristol. Artwork by Cheo.

The nature of street are is changing. Artist are now looking for possible fame and fortune in addition to getting exposure for their work. Taking to the streets, the BBC's Joby Waldman meets Elbow-Toe.
