CITYCLOUDS

The area Fitzroy in Melbourne is likewise famous for its alternative szene like the szene of Friedrichshain in Berlin. And often I was told that both citys are quite similar. So I was interested how streetart covers this szene. What I discovered, sometimes with luck and sometimes with the help of structured search for the untouched and secret places, is shown in my collages. I found for example stencils from Dolk, „Imperial Walker“, „I am your father“ and “R2D2″ and „Zebras“ from Plush. Very exiting!

This might be the most impressive Combination of Street Art and Interactive Media i´ve seen in a long time. Blu is no unknown for who has some interest in street art and David Ellis does some delightful pieces himself. In this cooperation they used an entire building with all aspects and details..brilliant!

Again through Wooster Collective (so far best street art blog i´ve got in my reader) comes this great Total Panic Crisis Button project by Jason Eppink. I love it!

Really cool and apparently inspired by Jason´s work comes an attempt from Ryan from New Haven, CT. Good work!

All locals from Berlin probably know the giant murals painted close to Warschauer Straße in Berlin. Blu has marked several cities in the world and pleased our eyes with a fantastic animation film MUTO to be seen here.
He´s back with some new giant mural painted in a city in Italy during the FAME festival. Apparently the Land and the Population of Taranto suffered a lot of damage due to a giant factory located in the Place and his work doesn’t leave any doubts of what he meant.

More about the piece here.

This one really made me laugh. I was walking up a street close to where i live in Berlin. ..and i see a trap! My first thought was like: “Man, imagine that you´re coming home from a party and really want that freakin golden bottle.”

No clue who did it. Very cool though.

So this might be a reason for me to head over to Bristol this Summer to visit some Friends, go to some nice Dubstep parties and to check out the Banksy exhibition at the Bristol Museum.
He did an Interview with Times Online (rare thing to have Banksy on the Press)… read it here.

Plus there is a nice little Video by the BBC with an Interview with the director of the Museum. Full Press Coverage!!!!
By the way… the exhibiton lasts till the 31st of August and entrance is free!

I want to intodruce you to a very famous Artist from Melbourne. RekaOne. He is belonging to the street art scene. Of course he is not only a illustration genius by painting a wall. His illustration gave us a insight in a surrealistic and curious world of unique characters. Tomorrow I will visit a Club in Fitzroy, Melbourne, he created the wallpaintings. So I will see how his work looks in real.

I found a very inspiring video about street art and graffiti in Sao Paulo this morning. Thanks of a friend of mine who sent me a Cool Hunting Video on Youtube about “Pixacao”, a special way of Tagging in Brazil…
This 13 min Film shows how some Artists are raising awareness to social problems in Sao Paulo through their Art and reveals the “Art less Pollution” project by Alexandre Orion, where Imagery is obtained through cleaning polluted Areas.  He “cleans” 3500 Skulls on the walls of a tunel during 17 consecutive nights… it´s in the video but check out the Site.

The Video is not embedabble but still worth watching, so just follow this Link!

But there is one about the tunnel cleaning..so here we go.
