I know Vandalog doesn’t usually post about non-street art shows, but the latest at London Miles Gallery off Brick Lane piqued my interest. The show is entitled Guilty Pleasures & Modern Vices, which artists will depict a modern version of the Seven Deadly Sins. The line-up consists of mostly pop surrealists and contemporary modern …

A couple of weeks ago, I had a chance to stop by Clownsoldier‘s studio in New York. After his participation in Up Close and Personal, I realized that Clownsoldier is much more than another artist putting up a logo. Once I saw how much more he did besides the Clownsoldier logo wheatpaste, I had to …

I met Julio Rölle of the Berlin-based 44flavours artist collective a number of years ago in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I immediately fell in love with its zine, 44flavours, for its intelligent mix of graffiti/street art culture, graphic design, interviews, prose and poetry.

If you looked at Vandalog this week, you’d think it was a slow week in street art. That’s not so, but I’ve been locked down working on Up Close and Personal (opening pics here). So here’s some of what I missed covering this week: This post at Brooklyn Street Art has the info on a …

When I last visited the Dorian Grey Gallery, a relatively new space in NYC’s East Village that has already featured solo shows by such artists as Crash and LA II, I was drawn to a few images — almost hidden from view — lying on a desk. I discovered that they are the work of …
