Two of the most original voices working in street and gallery settings today, Chris Stain and Armsrock, have what looks to be an outstanding show coming up at Ad Hoc Art this Friday, August 7th. Both artists capture moments of hope and dignity in urban life without romanticizing the challenges and despair. We are very impressed with their new work and the installation they are currently preparing in the gallery.

Take a look at all the setup pics as well as a nice video after the jump…


The boys have collaborated on a beautiful roof top mural near Brooklyn’s Navy Yard. Our friends Steve Harrington and Jaime Rojo from Brooklyn Street Art captured the process with some fantastic photos and this great video.
