Two graffiti shows

Two major graffiti shows have opened (and one has closed) without me saying a thing. Sometimes I get too involved in street art and forget about graffiti and its awesomeness.

First is Futura’s Odyssey Two which was in Berlin but closed on the 27th. Futura is a graffiti legend, so I’m always interested in seeing some new work from him. Here are a few pics and a video interview:

And graffiti show number two is all the way in Santa Monica, California at Robert Berman Gallery. Retna and Mac are big names in California, but have yet to really become as well known over here in Europe. Known Gallery has a bunch of pics you can check out from the private view, but unfortunately I can’t download them to use on Vandalog so here’s the show’s flyer:
