(All photo: just.ekosystem.org) One of the amazing things about the interwebz, and more particularly the blog-o-sphere (oh how I hate that term), is the way that it shrinks down geography. For example, I have never been to Oslo, or Berlin. But, I am eating up photos and day to day narratives of some pretty amazing … Continue reading Internacionale (just.ekosystem.org)→
I shot a couple of galleries, recently. One of them was on Broadway, just off of the NYU Campus. It’s kind of pathetic, but, sometimes I like the space more than the stuff hung there. Anyway, when I first entered the building, the elevator lobby was decorated in Keith Haring-eque patterns. I thought “hmm, someone … Continue reading Round about (sort of) street art o’ the week.→
Thursday afternoon, I decided to stop by the Mural the Shepard Fairey is working on, in the East Village. I had originally wanted to go by on Wednesday, but it ended up raining like crazy. Today worked out well, though. I was on my way through the neighborhood, anyway, for the Earth Day party at … Continue reading Street art o’ the week– Fairey on Houston→
Photo by: Reagan Apparently Reagan was so jealous of my new summer haircut, that she ran out and got one too! Hahahah. I have to admit, her’s came out much better than mine. Other unrelated items going on this week: Tonight, we are finally going to see Banky’s “Exit through the Giftshop.” I just purchased … Continue reading Bettah shot of the new do + copycat→
Not your garden variety of street art, this week. But, it is similar in concept to the Rub Kandy piece from last October. I will never get tired of them. The artist who created the work, above, goes by the name of Felice Varini. I came across his work via The World’s Best Ever. Now, … Continue reading Street art o’ the week, from another perspective→
Thursday night, I had the pleasure of shooting Justin Bua’s gallery opening at Pop International in SoHo. I was pretty stoked about it, being that I’m a huge fan of Bua’s. I actually did a piece on Bua and his work, in SoJones earlier this week. Be sure to check it, if you haven’t already. … Continue reading Bua @ Pop International→
The Deitch gallery has a pretty strong legacy, in the street art community. If you are a fan, then you have probably already heard that Deitch is closing its doors. As a final hoorah, the Deitch Gallery will be featuring an exhibit by Shepherd Fairey. I’m not going to lie. I’m pretty excited about it. … Continue reading Fairey Exhibit Coming to the Deitch gallery (as final exhibit)→
In a slight twist from the street art stuff that I usually post, these are actually photo-realist oil paintings by artist Kevin Peterson. They are from Peterson’s series “Graffiti Girls.” Peterson is based in Houston TX. You can check out a couple more pieces from the Graffiti Girls series on Format.
It’s Sundance time in Park City. Being a bit of a street art aficionado, I was pretty excited to hear that Banksy was throwing up some pieces in SLC and PC, since the film “Exit through the Gift Shop,” is debuting at the film festival. I’m hoping that the art will still be there in … Continue reading Weekend, here we come→
