GraffotoViola Gallery 1a Turville St 21 Feb 2008 First, a short summary of recent street art history as background to tonight’s show. Several months ago a flutter occurred literally on the streets of London when a flock of pigeons appeared on the walls of Hoxton and Shoreditch. Thinkfly took the whole fluorescent pigeon with eyes […]
Black Rat Press Print ShowRivington Street 16 Feb 2008 With domestic interiors across the land filling up with prints from street artists, Black Rat Press have blessed the inquisitive and acquisitive with an education in the back stage aspects of the artists work. Sadly, the Rat couldn’t make it to BRP’s Print Show opening so […]
Islington Arts Factory 8 Feb 2008 There are many reasons why people move out of central London…less stress, better schools, nature, the environment and definitely more space! Jef Aerosol’s new Show at the Islington Art Centre, not too far from Newcastle and roughly level with Stavangar, certainly has more space, more space for hanging, more […]
I have never seen too many Arofish stencils around Shoreditch (primarily they crop up on the Southbank and surronding areas) but what he lacks in quantity he certainly makes up for in quality and they are always worth waiting for. Spotted by the now eagle eyed and very clued up Nolions. . . . . […]
(all photos Bonhams) Originating from the streets of Bristol, Brighton and London, growing up via galleries in the East End (TLSG and BRP well represented tonight), the street print and canvas fetish they call urban art arrived in the plush west end auction rooms of Bonhams tonight . Standing room only as Banksy stole the […]
After lunch, to Bonhams in the charabanc to view some arty items previewing for the so-called first ever Urban Art auction. No Sol or San Mig. so had to endure the daubings sober. The star piece imo is the ultra pink Sid/spikey punk canvas by Banksy. Most spectacular is the multiple Laugh Now from that […]
The Boy done good!
Judith wont be happy!
A few of the bits spotted in recent months, he must be busy as he has slowed down a bit (on my route at least) some of these pics are from a trip to Bristol in November. More of which will follow soon(ish)
Acting on a hunch, your intrepid wall sniffing scouts found a small group of shady individuals, one a genuis street artist, one a photographer and a couple of scaffolding monkeys setting up for a bit of street decoration. Judith Supine, for twas indeed the man himself, confirmed this was a kind of maybe, maybe not […]
Just to get my photographs of things other than graffiti out of the way, I thought I’d post a few of them.
Well, there may be a change in the name (second collective member not happy at being a Woofter) BUT Graffoto becomes two very very soon (In time for a Valentines day special for all you followers of the hot new happenings in Woofter World) Graffoto has gone global! Now covering North to Sarf, East to […]
Still not entirely sure what the Temple resembles (I’m off to read his new website www.thesickboy.com where I may or may not find out) However and whatever, as per usual, I care not for explanation, reason, cause or anything like it. It just looks the chuffin nuts :o) The Colab with Sweet Toof and Cyclops […]
I mailed him. . . . it was the wrong one, so please be aware and on the lookout 😉
