Graffiti Taxonomy by Evan Roth - S

Tags are important for graffiti. Ask a graffiti artist what the first thing he put up was, and it most likely be a tag with a shit Edison marker somewhere. Tags are a form of typography and the artists are highly specialised in the specific letters of their name. For most it takes years to create interesting hand styles. Yet tags are mostly just seen as acts of vandalism, even by the most open-minded art lovers.

So how do you show the beauty of tags?…Read More »

Baloji ft. Konono Nº1 &#...

Yesterday, Arden and myself were thinking about our ‘music department’ – Crackforyourears.  Before revamping the website, it had been offline for over an year. Our focus had always been on electronic music, at least that is what we thought. But looking back it actually was never like that. True, we posted loads of electronic based stuff. But that was probably a result of our main approach to everything concerning…Read More »

Ciclocolor – by Nar...

Narcelio Grud is an impressive and surprising (street / graffiti) artist! His works vary from amazingly skilled murals, characters and other aerosol art to installations and interventions in the public space. Previously we were already happily surprised by the creativity of a public sound sculpture. This time he came up with an amazing bicycles, guaranteed to brighten your day! Enjoy Ciclocolor!

Expo Boteco

It’s not a secret that we’re big fans of Brazil and it’s people. Lucas Zappa is traveling to Europe this June. Together with his illustrator friend he’s developing a project of low cost exhibitions. At the moment they’re doing it in Rio de Janeiro, but hopefully they will bless the streets of Europe with the same project.

Have a look at the Burning Saxony crew from (where else) Saxony, Germany!

Boa Mistura

Loving the works and video’s of spanish writer team Boa Mistura. They’ve got a whole lot of video’s of their work going on, and I liked this one in particular because of the honest and down to earth concept; painting the people you see around them, dignity by portraiture so to say. Check more on their Vimeo channel. Via Miya Eerian

Graffiti Keuken

Fuck yes. Time for some shameless self promotion! Dutch graffiti artist Karski, who we also worked with for the cfye @ the revelry wall, came to me with an idea about a stop motion video recently, and together with his buddy Thyz we created a kick-ass video. People who follow us know that we’ve done some stop motion videos before, like the cfye @ the revelry wall, the crazy huge…Read More »
