Who is one artist doing really great work right now?
Cake: My answer would be Know Hope. Complete openness and honesty presented in a vulnerable and humble form so that we can all relate to it and not be scared off by it. Know Hope creates from a place of sensitivity and openness and he is one of my favorite artists right now without a doubt because I can actually experience his work beyond its form and I am able to feel it’s emotions. And I always end up feeling good and at peace.

Who is one artist doing really great work right now?
I’d say that the artist that impressed me most, recently, must be Claire Fahys.
I discovered her work thanks to Caroline Leluel of the French Art studio.
I work with them and Claire does too.
I really love her art and can’t believe how mature it is considering she’s only 24 years old.
I hope she’ll very soon get the broad recognition she deserves.
You can see some of her work there.

Vhils has some new work on Lazarides’ website. First, there’s three screenprints with edition sizes between 11 and 17. They are individualized and £375 each, which sounds like an amazing deal given that I just got a Vhils print from POW this week for £335 and that’s an edition of 65. I do think the POW print looks nicer though.
And for those with a bit more cash, there’s also one Vhils original on Laz’s site for £14,000. One of the cutout pieces like Vhils did at Cans2.

I’ve been a bit light on posts this week. Schoolwork has been piling up a bit, and I submit my university applications next week, so I’ve been working on those. I have been following the news though, and it seems like everybody is talking about tags this week.

Street artists from across the world have been given one post to give away to one artist who they feel has been doing great work recently. Today it’s Gaia’s turn (if you missed it, he was L.E.T.‘s pick yesterday). This response was actually taken from a larger Q&A with Gaia that will be posted on Vandalog as soon as I get my university applications in (I’ll hit “submit” this Friday).
Who is one artist doing really great work right now?
Gaia: The one person who has been really making a splash is the writer Booker/ReadMoreBooks/Rancour/HoodRich. While he has been getting up for quite some time now, his recent slew of rollers that he has pulled off in the past year are astounding. Always imaginative, always clean, and he has such a unique and free style.

L.E.T: The artist who’s great right now is Gaia.
Gaia has a piece at Ad Hoc Art’s Brooklyn Block Party which opened last night. It has work from nearly a dozen artists working with wood or lino blocks.

As part of Vandalog’s “Great in ’08” series, which will be running every day for the rest of the month. Check out previous posts here. Street artists from across the world have been given one post to give away to one artist who they feel has been doing great work recently. Today Armsrock (whose show with elbowtoe opens at thinkspace gallery today) and PaintGoggles have both picked the same artist.
Who is one artist doing really great work right now?
PaintGoggles: One artist making great stuff right now is C215. C215 creates work that is beautiful and seemingly personal. He consistently makes paintings that are both delicate and aggressive. The use of light in his work is truly amazing. He is also crazy prolific.
Armsrock: One of the people who’s work in the streets continues to impress and inspire me, is C215.
To me he seems to be constantly exploring the idea of what stencil art can do and could be. His pictures have a wonderful way of acknowledging and integrating themselves in their surroundings, taking in regard the space and the people who inhabits it. There is something deeply compassionate and honest in his pictures, and I greatly admire him for that.
C215 has a show opening tonight at Ad Hoc Art‘s project room. See more photos of C215’s work after the jump… Continue reading “Great In ’08: Armsrock and PaintGoggles Say…”
