CopyRight - Signs of the Times. . .

Cant beleive it's taken me this long in to mention my fave street splasher (and boy does he splash!) He has a new print out soon to go with his new batch of amended street signs.

Check out his pics @ http://www.flickr.com/photos/copyright/

Update on Shit Shutter. . .

It's getting no better. Have been told it is occupied by squatters and they are using it as a "street window gallery". . . This'll go on and on. Word also has it that a certain Pink Fiend may have an itchy painting finger :)

Jef Rocks My Aer (o) Sol

Have known the name for a while, but never properly checked out Jef until his recent bout of paste ups. Amazingly simple and simply amazing . . . .(pass me the sick bag after that large dose of cheese please stewardess)

Piss Holes in the Snow. . .

Well, on Old Street for now at least. I first saw these things in Amsterdam about 5 or 6 years ago, they rolled them out "for ze tourishts at ze veekend" and then rolled away and things back to relative normality (In Dam at least) for Monday morning.


So just outside the Police station (at least I believe it is?) on Old Street this afternoon, I am not sure if this is to be a permanent installation, but a few people have already been spotted using it.
Quite frankly, yes, fair game when I'm lashed on a Thu/Fri/Sat/Sun and couldn't give a flying chuff...but the opportunity for billy big bollocks to piss inches away from me walking past casually eating my Subway meatball £1.99 sub of the day? Fuck that shit !

New Eine Website

I do actually manage to talk about other artists in between thankfully, but I cant get enough of Eine (in case you hadn't already noticed)



A long overdue website has just gone up for him. Not too much that hasnt been seen before, but hopefully a good place that he will update with his stuff going on now. Yummy.

Found Was Friggin Fabulous

Last nights "Found" show at The Leonard Street Gallery was simply amazing. mentioned earlier last week it featured scores of artists, most of whom had produced new versions of old stuff specially for the show, and also included older (and more expensive mostly) pieces from the likes of Obey and Nick Walker amongst others.

Asbestos

It is running for an undisclosed amount of time, and they will be switiching the items on show around, I think the stuff they have waiting in the wings could fill the place out all over again, so will be a whole different expereince in a couple of weeks.

Sweet Toof


It was hosted with the usual effortless charm of the gallery's staff (I'm sure the women are getting more attractive. . . or is it the extremely strong vodka cocktails they serve up) Either way, both were plentiful.

If at first you don't Faile, Faile and Faile again. . .

Faile have always been masters of utilising the same spot when they hit up around East London (and Everywhere for that matter) so it's always nice that for the most part their stuff stays intact in readiness for when they next pay us a visit. So it saddens me when a good spot goes like this one did recently

So it annoyed me when I saw this at the weekend, and then to have the cheek to leave a note! Dickheads!





I sincerely hope the next time I pass it has been well and truly spanked!
