I really like this piece by Sao Paolo street artist Treco, and the time-lapse video by director Rodrigo Piza Levy of him creating it. I wonder what went wrong with the original trunk, why’d he have to change it? I suppose it’s something I’ll never know… DEU TRECO from rodrigo piza levy on Vimeo.

In a world overpopulated with unimaginative “street” art, Space Invader always stays ahead of the curve. Aside from his mosaic tile work, he’s been doing art with Rubik’s Cubes which he has humorously coined “Rubikcubism”, and below is a video of the French artist at work.

When looking through Tixinda‘s portfolio, it’s hard not to get blown away almost immediately. What strikes you first is their talent for conflating the best of Western street culture with Hong Kong street culture, and lacing it out in Aztec and indigenous Mexican cultural influences.

This one really isn’t an easy concept to mentally digest at first. Initially, the project comes across as a game of “What’s wrong with this picture?” For instance: children, playing in a sandbox, nothing wrong with that…but children playing in a sandbox in the middle of a busy street? Seems very questionable. Each live sculpture […]

I have to say I really like what these by TrustoCorp guys are up to (remember these?). Yes, wheat pasting that little cool ghost or cartoon or stupid smiley face with long legs is tired as all hell, but taking the time to create metal signs and place them in public spaces is taking things […]

If you missed the dynamic duo combination of Phil Frost and Barry McGee three months ago at the Prism gallery, don’t fret my ravenous street art loving friends! Phil Frost is opening up his solo show tonight, Saturday, April 24th, at the Known Gallery from 8-11p. The show is titled Pale Writer and I suspect […]
