Roa has spent the last week or so in London, and he’s been doing quite a bit of painting. He’s maybe the most prolific street artist I can think of. I went out this afternoon to take photos of the pieces I knew about and discovered 3 new ones walking around Brick Lane. These are most, but not all, of the pieces Roa has painted while in town.
Expect a time lapse of Roa painting plus video interview with him coming soon…
I think this might be the catalyst for a post sometime in the next week. A while back, I posted about recession-inspired street art, but there has been so much more recently that maybe another post is due.
At first glance I didn’t particularly care for this latest paste-up by Elbow-toe, but I can see how it fits into everything he’s been doing and I’ve begun to rather like it.

Last night Herakut painted live in Berlin, and unless I’m getting my Herakut news stories crossed, the work was painted to decorate a local hospital. Good stuff.

Just wanted to share these shots of case’s newly finished window installation.
His show, “The L.A. case”, runs from October 8th-29th. More pics of him getting ready for it here.
This is the artwork of Liesbeth Bussche, and I’m just going to let the pictures explain it. Very cool though.

I was hunting around a little while ago for pictures of Herakut’s new mural, painted for ARTotale in Luneburg, and, just when I stopped looking, my friend Sebastian put some up on Unurth!
We did a little preview of ARTotale back in August and were pretty impressed by the line up. Just, who took these photos of Herakut’s work, has documented the week long festival on Ekosystem. Check out his awesome photo stream.
Pedro Matos is an artist from Lisbon Portugal, and this is a piece he did recently in Santarem, Portugal. I’m really enjoying how he has brought together all these different styles into one piece without coming across as another artist pandering to the street art fad.
Probably one of the best spots that I have ever seen. The piece is indistinguishable from its placement. I really do questions whether he in fact wrote everything on that sign or just applied the piece. Anyways, he care and application is always generous and heartfelt.
Peace to Sabeth718 for the photo!
Here’s a new artist (or new to me at least). New York Ghost is one of a few artist/activists in New York with a habit of taking over public advertising spaces like bus stop advertisements. These are some of his works:
Sure, these two pieces would look better if they were printed on one large piece of paper, but the concepts are interesting.
And this is just cool.
Thought I’d post a few photos from Asker, an Italian graffiti artist whose work I’ve really been enjoying recently.
Check out more on Asker’s website.
