Primary Flight

My highlight of Art Basel was almost definitely Primary Flight, the huge mural project in the Wynwood district. They had over 100 artists painting murals, from big names like Shepard Fairey and Nick Walker to local graffiti writers. Here’s some of what they did.

Joe and I made a video about the project:

‘RJ’s Street Art London’ on Babelgum

babelgum

Recently I’ve been posting some videos here from Babelgum.com. This week was the launch of my show there, RJ’s Street Art London. About two episodes will go online each week. So far I’ve interviewed Luc Price, filmed Roa painting, given tours of The Thousands and wandered around numerous art openings in London.

You can visit RJ’s Street Art London at www.babelgum.com/rj

Oh, and thanks to Jon Hammer aka ELATE for painting the logo.

Lazarides ‘Grifters’ preview pics

The folks in town for the Lazarides’ Grifters show sure are busy. Ian Cox has been taking some great photos of their progress:

Yes, this post is a bit Choe heavy, but his pieces look really great even if you only see a segment of them, someone like Mode2, you really need to see the finished product. If your curious what else has been going on though, Ian’s flickr stream has more pics.

UPDATE: Even more David Choe:
