Videos: Banksy’s “The Antics Roadshow”

Posted by sleepboy, August 14, 2011

For our readers who aren’t located in the UK, you probably haven’t seen Banksy’s one hour TV special, The Antics Roadshow, which aired on Channel 4 over the weekend. Titled as a pun on the Antiques Roadshow, a long-running British television show, Banksy explores the “history of behaving badly in public, from anarchists and activists to attention seeking eccentrics” including many interviews and re-enactments with the actual protagonists. Discuss Banksy here.

Take a look at this off-the-wall video as a man takes an interactive stop-motion journey through the Art in the Streets exhibition that recently closed.

Videos: Ai Weiwei – “Art / Architecture” @ The Kunsthaus

Posted by sleepboy, August 10, 2011

The Kunsthaus in Bregenz, Austria recently opened up an exhibition Art / Architecture that explores the lesser known architectural work of the recently released Ai Weiwei. It’s certainly encouraging to see the Chinese artist continue to exhibit despite his imprisonment as well as him starting to enter social media again (Instagram & Twitter – English translation). Take a look at the video above from Vernissage TV with footage of the exhibition as well as an interview with director of the Kunsthaus Bregenz, Yilmaz Dziewior. Via Hypebeast. Discuss […]

Openings / Video – Brandon Shigeta – “ARTCUBE” @ Little Tokyo Design Week

Posted by sleepboy, August 9, 2011

Congratulations to contributing photographer Brandon Shigeta as his ARTCUBE installation for Little Tokyo Design Week (LTDW) was a smashing success. In fact, Brandon’s concept was chosen as the winner of this year’s Golden Astro Boy award award. This is what Jeffrey Deitch had to say – “There were a few reasons why I thought Brandon’s exhibit was the strongest. It wasn’t a piece that would have typically been found in a museum or gallery. He really conceived it for the container, and it worked well in that context. It also […]

Video: AJ Fosik x Mastodon

Posted by sleepboy, August 5, 2011

Have you ever wondered how AJ Fosik puts together one of his fantastic wood sculptures like the ones in this show last year in Denver? The video above which shows him putting together the piece seen on the new Mastodon album should satisfy some of the curious Fosik fans out there. For those in New York, look for a solo from the Portland-based artist at Jonathan LeVine Galley at the end of October. Take a look at the album cover after the jump…

AM Films: Vhils – “Deconstruction”

Posted by sleepboy, August 3, 2011

Recently, we brought you some photos of street artist Vhils working on a wall outside of the Post No Bills gallery in Venice, California. This particular piece was created in conjunction with the European Bailout Show (covered) that opened last week and really showcases what the Portuguese artist is know for – imprinting his work permanently into the surface of whatever he is working with whatever tools he deems necessary. AM filmmaker Carlos Gonzalez was on hand to capture some of the creative process in the footage […]
