Releases: Draw A Line Limited Editions

Posted by SAL, November 29, 2013

Several days ago, a new art editions online shop, Draw A Line, was launched from Berlin. The main goal of this project is to create and sell limited art edition prints in collaboration with international artists, but also, telling a story about the artists and their work. In order to achieve this, they invite contributing artists to visit their Berlin studio, or their representatives meet the artist at their home base. This approach allows them to have a closer look inside the mind of the […]

In those two years, he traveled through the American suburbs documenting his entire journey through film and photography in what seems to be the natural progression of his prior show HOME, a personal look into his own suburban […]

Previews: Cyclops – ‘The Way of All Flesh’ @ Outsiders (London)

Posted by sven, November 26, 2013

For us here at AM, Cyclops has been one of the most interesting, and certainly most talented gallery artists to come from the contemporary graffiti world in the UK. His work has seen him revolve back and forth from using his real name to the moniker he was given whilst painting with the much lauded and sadly missed Burning Candy crew. The Way of All Flesh is very much a Cyclops show though – and what a show it appears to be. The exhibition features a series […]
