Streets: Dash Snow Tribute (New York)

Posted by sleepboy, November 23, 2010

It looks like the Barry McGee and Amaze mural on Houston & Bowery has been painted over with a giant fire extinguisher Sace Irak tag. If you want to check out this tribute to Dash Snow, you had better hurry as it sounds as though it will only be up for a day until a new winter mural goes up.

Streets: LUDO – “Co-Branding” (Paris)

Posted by sleepboy, November 21, 2010

If you remember, we brought you some “Halloweenism” from LUDO (interviewed) recently. Now, take a look at some of the origins of the series with the “co-branding” project that he’s been working on concurrently in Paris. The “Del Monte” trash can we posted last month was the first piece of this new series, so it looks like he’s branching out from his “Nature’s Revenge” imagery somewhat. Take a look at more bus stop interventions after the jump…

Streets: Aiko (New York)

Posted by sleepboy, November 18, 2010

It looks like Aiko recently completed a new mural in the Bronx. The wall references much of her recent imagery as well as big “Bunny” tag. If you are in NY, head over the 163rd and Park Ave and take a look for yourself. More photos after the jump…

Streets: Interesni Kazki in Barcelona

Posted by Patrick Nguyen, November 17, 2010

AM has been keeping a close eye on AEC and Waone, who together form the Ukranian duo Interesni Kazki (Interesting Fairy Tales). Earlier this year, the two Kiev-based artists had a solo show at Galerie All Over in Lyon, France. Last month, original drawings by them were displayed at Pictures On Walls in a group show coinciding with the launch (featured) of Tristan Manco‘s new book, Street Sketchbook: Journeys. Another exhibition of their colourful fantasy-world creations will be held next spring in Milan. Interesni Kazki […]

Streets: Blu (France)

Posted by sleepboy, November 11, 2010

Another masterpiece from Blu went up in Rennes recently with the artist painting a creature made from our unwanted and discarded trash. Perhaps like the Tin Man in “The Wizard of Oz”, it seems to have found a heart for itself. Take a closer look after the jump…

Reminder: Ron English – “Status Factory” @ Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion (OCC)

Posted by sleepboy, November 10, 2010

Apparently, that mural Ron English (featured) was working on in Miami that we first brought you here is completed. He ended with a cool extension of the wall piece onto the ground and with the placement of some of his “Camo Deer” figures. We first saw these pieces at his impressive “Status Factory” pop-up show in New York (covered) and for west coast fans of his work, make sure you stop by on Friday night (November 12th) as the show moves to the Frank M. […]

Basel Week Miami ’10: Ron English @ Wynwood Walls

Posted by juggernut3, November 6, 2010

With December just around the corner, you know that AM is itching to get to Basel week down in Miami. Fortunately, Ron English took to recon duty and is currently down in Florida creating this beauty. During last year’s Basel festivities you may remember that Ron created a mural for Primary Flight. This year, he’s working on his contribution to Wynwood Walls sponsored by Tony Goldman. We’re counting the days until we get down to Miami to bring you our annual on-site coverage from Basel […]

Streets / Teaser: ROA with Pop-Up Show (Los Angeles)

Posted by sleepboy, November 1, 2010

Last weekend, we visited with ROA as he worked on his first street piece in Los Angeles (7th and Mateo). It was produced in assocation with The LA Freewalls Project (other artists in the neighborhood for The LA Freewalls Project include Saber, Shepard Fairey, Herakut, and Ron English). As usual, there is always more to his pieces that meets the eye – check out the tail action. The Belgium-based artist is in town for his pop-up show next week at the New Puppy Gallery (presented […]

Streets: SABER and Shepard Fairey Flags Collaboration

Posted by Khoi, November 1, 2010

On LA’s famous Melrose Ave, near Fairfax Ave lies a collaboration by two of the city’s most pioneering street and graffiti artists. On a wall that previously held a Shepard Fairey mural now features two flags side-by-side, one an American flag as interpreted by Fairey and the other, an American flag as seen through the eyes of SABER. Street pieces do not get better than this. These two local heroes have provided the streets of Los Angeles and the rest of the world with innovative, […]

Streets: LUDO – “Halloweenism”

Posted by sleepboy, October 31, 2010

LUDO (interviewed) just completed a series of Parisian bus shelters ad takeovers entitled “Halloweenism.” A fitting project don’t you think with his view of monsters (Castro, Saddam, Stalin, Gaddafi, Mao, Mugabe) for this holiday. More after the jump…
