Faile's 'Temple' in Lisbon is stunning, large, and incredibly detailed. For those of us not in Lisbon, Stick2Target has a lot of great images, and this video walk-through. The piece was created as part of Portugal Arte '10.
Probably the largest piece of street art in LA; a stencil-based train that stretches 380ft.
Assisted by Bumblebee, M-City completed this wall in 4 days.
It's striking from a distance, but also really special up close: the smoke streams are incredibly intricate cityscapes.
M-City was in town for a show at the Carmichael Gallery, which included stencilled canvases and some really stunning machine-like installations.
Fauxreel's latest installation, a convincing illusion of abandoned store fronts, is for an exhibition at Toronto's Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art (MOCCA). It is inspired by a project he did with Specter in 2008 called 'A City Renewal Project', whereby they recreated abandoned storefronts 'as artistic monuments and documenting their history amidst the gentrified frenzy of urban change'.
A wonderful mixture of tape art & remixed ads, installation & performance. This is a timely release of a collaboration between Aakash & Poster Boy, who was recently jailed for his art (evidently messing with ads is an especially evil thing).
You can join a 'Free Henry' Facebook group, although that seems altogether too passive a response to such a ridiculous situation. [although this is really lame]
