Fresh off a weekend at Baby Tattooville, they will be flying out very soon to the design event as well as making a stop at the Outre Gallery on October 11th at 2 pm.

Baby Tattooville ’09: Buff Monster

Posted by sleepboy, October 5, 2009

One thing that Baby Tattooville attendees definitely noticed this year was the fact that they received much more original art to take home with them.Â Last year, there seemed to be more “art products” given out, ie prints, art toys, etc… That is not to say that they aren’t appreciated, especially the hand customized figures by Buff Monster for this years BT.Â Throughout the weekend, Buff Monster could be seen working on the toys as well as sketching for fans.Â You will also soon see […]

Following last night’s late sketch, swap and sketch again session, AM and the participating artists reconvened for the official commencement of Baby Tattooville 2009.Â Much like last year’s Shag badge (covered), this years attendees were greeted with a special name tag/art print by none other Greg “Craola” Simkins.Â In addition to this signed and numbered mini print, Baby Tattooville debuted this year’s “X in one” print, a complimentary, limited edition giclee featuring the art of all participating BT artists.Â Check out the goody, print and […]

Preview: Michael Lau – “Gardener 10th” @ De La Barracuda

Posted by sleepboy, September 29, 2009

When one thinks of Michael Lau, one thinks of the “godfather of vinyl” or the originator of the “art toy.”Â Without his innovation and hard work long ago, we would not have many of the art-related figures and projects we cover and collect from artists we love today.Â His epic show “Gardener 10th” opening at De La Barracuda tonight not only chronicles the 10 year history of his “Gardener” line but will also have much of the related artwork and sketches on display (and of […]

Posted by sven, September 24, 2009

If you are anything like the guys at AM, then you love to read and collect art booksâ€¦ Street Art has been widely documented over the last 25 years, since Martha Cooper (interviewed) and Henry Chalfant’s (interviewed) now legendary “Subway Art” hit the shelves back in 1984.

Publications: “The Rest Is Up To You”

Posted by sleepboy, September 23, 2009

In a way reminiscent of how some artists have collaborated with their kids in creating art (think Jeff Soto (interviewed) & daughter Shannon or Tim Biskup & daughter Tigerlily), there is a new book out entitled “The Rest Is Up To You.” We don’t know who Cohen Morano is, but his father sure hooked it up for the first-grader.Â He sent some watercolors by the boy to a illustrious list of artists and had them collaborate with the resulting art becoming the basis of this […]

Preview: COMPLEX Magazine October/November Issue – Clipse x KAWS Cover

Posted by Khoi, September 22, 2009

The ever productive KAWS has produced another sick magazine cover.Â He’s collaborated with the rap duo Clipse many times before (including designing their album art). This time, he puts them in his signature blister packaging with imagery in the background from a painting in his recentÂ Honor Fraser show “The Long Way Home” (covered here and here). The magazine hits newsstands on Oct. 6, but COMPLEX was nice enough to show us the cover and behind-the-scenes video before then. More images after the jump.

Behind the Scenes: The Date Farmers – “Medicine Crow” Print

Posted by sleepboy, September 21, 2009

We recently saw some behind the scenes photos of the making of The Date Farmersâ€™ newest print “Medicine Crow” from Modern Multiples. If the image looks familiar to you, it’s probably because you saw it at their most recent exhibition, “Strange Fruit,” currently showing at FIFTY24SF. Sounds like there are three colorways so far – “Watermelon,” “Cotton Candy” and “Southwest.” Take a look at the photo set after the jump.
