Erik Burke, who recently did the fantastic "Writers Bench" tribute sent us a link to the video below. He writes:

"Following the DIY memorial to the Writers Bench, I found a simple and playful way to reenact subway graffiti. With a little help from my friends we went to a subway platform in Manhattan and Brooklyn to give life to the old saying "My Piece is Still Running."

Brenden Bells Five ( Dramatic Pauses )

Five ( Dramatic Pauses ) from Brendan Bell on Vimeo.

Artist Statement:

"We let the television news into the perceived safety of our lives on a daily basis. Even without direct contact, the language of the medium connects with us via background noise, internet blips, and watercooler small-talk. It has a distinct, and often overlooked, authority over the way we think and feel.

The nightly half-hour national news format attempts to condense the state of the world into easily digestible soundbites. My intention is to release these soundbites, inherent powers intact, realign them and force them to interact in unintended ways.

For seven months, I watched NBC Nightly News, recording phrases that piqued my interest. I focused on this single media outlet to give the project a specific voice and began reconfiguring the phrases into what can best be described as collage poems. Poetry, like the news media, uses evocative language to provide insight into the inner workings of the world. However, poetry allows subtleties and subtext to take center stage. The resulting collage poems highlight the ambiguous spaces between language and life, exposing the vagaries of the ostensibly concrete world around us.

The term (Dramatic Pause) implies a brief deviation from an intended script, or a small crack in real time, where things that are normally hidden become visible. It is based on instructions written for news broadcasters on their teleprompters."

"I would rather you hate me than ignore me"

For many years we've been fascinated by Pixação. There's an energy in the tags that's undeniable and, for us, extremely powerful.

But to be honest, we've never fully understood the nuances of Pixação and in some ways become comfortable with it.

And then today we came across a terrific video from Cool Hunting that in some ways is a "Pixação 101"

There's a great line in the video that for us, struck a strong chord:

"I would rather you hate me than ignore me"

"Chemical Warfare Project" Phase 1

Every day for the last eight months, Eric Pakurar has been taking a photo of one specific door on Greene St in Manhattan to assemble into a time-lapse movie of how the graffiti and street art builds over time. Eric tells us: "I like to think I'm documenting a sort of collaborative art project -- lots of different contributions continually adding to a living work of art."

Eric is now looking to acknowledge all the different individual artists who have added to the door over that time and is hoping that people will "crowdsource" the names of the artists on his Flickr page here.

LIFE IS A BRIDGE

From 2501:

"Italy it's going through a weird moment right now,everyday we suffer more and more restrictions upon our personal liberty. Berlusconi "the King" of our Republic is eating up the city of Milan beat by beat. Since 2000 squats and populist cultural centers have been the homes of myself and many other like minded artist. In march 2006 24 people were arrested were trying to put a stop to a fascist demonstration. They were convicted of in-sighting a riot and were forced to serve 9 months of a 4 years prison sentence. Meanwhile, the violent and ruthless actions of Italian cops operating at the G8 summit have continued to go unpunished. In september 2008 Valentina a young artist with no previous criminal record that was among the 24 accused of rioting died tragically in a car accident. She was only 26 years old; the stop lights at that intersection were out of order. The city of Milan is devoting its resources to a private war against free and ungoverned cultural spaces, funneling money away from public services.

This video is a tribute to Valentina and to everyone who still resists."

"La Entrada is a collaborative art project of public art in personal spaces. Infused as murals and art workshops throughout the new landscape rising in San Diego California. The project actively cultivates culture in the community and is a reflection of social change. The core mural pieces are embedded on the new architectural development of affordable income housing in Logan Heights. La Entrada's design have a meaningful approach that speaks with the people's language; the imagery becomes cultural tools of social engagement and in its stories of experiences move and circulate as positive information which become vehicles for connections within the community."

all city animation project, video 1, Milano

From Ryan Spring Dooley:

"I just finished the first of my all city animation projects, an 850 drawing long film looking at Milan and trying to capture it's current spirit, a bit broken. The film touches on recent repression in Milan, Italy and some hopeful ways around it, check out the final cut, it has been projected in neighborhoods highly affected by recent
re-gentrification and cultural cleansing. many underground venues and occupied houses, artists cooperatives and unique local institutions have been literally destroyed in preparation for the 2015 worlds fair. Local governments are boasting about having expelled 1300 people of color in recent months using military and police in a way never expected from a contemporary democracy. If there is anyone interested in the current situation in italy, please consult the website of a historic cultural site painted by Blu, being forced to close by police, http://cox18.noblogs.org/

Among the accolades Shepard Fairey has been receiving recently is "Character Approved" a new award from USA Network that honors leading innovators who are shaping American Culture.

For the awards, Henry Alex Rubin (the director of Murderball) has put together a fantastic five minute vignette about Shepard that is, for us, one of the most informative "Shepard Fairey 101's" we've yet seen.

Ever wonder why Shepard uses only red and black in his images?

The video clip above, fir the song Río (River ) by the band Aterciopelados, was created by the artist Bastardilla frame by frame through photographs with the art drawn on glass and transparent surfaces that were located in multiple locations around Bogota.

Bastardilla tells us:

"The river Bogota is the most polluted in the world and the message of this song is clear, ecological awareness and action against the Bogota River, water and environment in the world in general. The concept of the video Clip is based on the Boa, animal that according to the story of some indigenous communities the trapeze amazónico, she is the mother of water and the mother of life."

"One Line..." From Dave The Chimp

"when I make graffiti in the street I don't write my name. I developed a way to draw characters with one line, as a kind of tag that is a character and not a name. I decided to make a stop-motion animation piece of these "tags" as a way to show the movement of them being drawn. each frame was hand painted on a large sheet of paper, taped to my flatmate's bedroom wall. the final animation was shown at my solo show ("Searching For The Perfect Line") at Vicious Gallery in Hamburg, alongside the paper the animation was painted on."...

"All City Animation Project": A Nice Little Animation By Ryan Dooley

choo chooooo

From Ryan: "All city animation project" is a simple means of expressing our territory and our community through an itinerary of projections taking place on different walls in different zones of OUR CITY, this project requires nothing else but a plug in for the projector and the participation of the viewers who can become potential critics or musicians depending on their relative comfort and enthusiasm INSIDE their LIVING spaces. The animated film "Choo Choo" by Ryan Spring Dooley, is a surreal hand drawn film about how it is often our thoughts that project our realities onto the the barriers that compose our surroundings and how these barriers indeed well modified by media and municipal repression are always OUR OWN. Inviting Ryan to project
his film from your living room, participating as a mini site specific festival of animation, choosing from what point or window to diplay this big drawing, you become active as a critic and a PARTICIPANT ( it is strongly encouraged that the crowd improvises the soundtrack and reflects on the meaning of the film.) The simple event of projecting animation onto the walls of a neighbor or the car parked behind your
bicycle in front of your apartment, next to the grocery store, at the back of the alley or in the biggest castle in town; gives a new attention to how much of the space around you is governed by your own thought and how much is just left to nothing and nobody, an empty chair or wall that could be OURS or at least a reflection of OUR will and thought. An authority very unique and very real, let's give this away, let's hang out a bit, eat some popcorn."

Project starts in January in Milano, Febuary in Berlin, March in Dresden, April in Naples, May in Paris; June, July and August in the United States, *all films are site specific, hand drawn impressions of the city in question, the trailer on My space is a reflection of Milan, Italy?

Love It: Sam3's" Water Kiss"

Street animation like this that been exciting the hell out of us these days. While not as elaborate as Blu's Muto, for us, Sam3's "Water Kiss" is equally inspiring.

Shit We're Diggin: Lorcan Finnegan's Photocopy Music Video For Sickboy

From Lorcan:

"The second music video I directed for Dublin band Sickboy. There are a few idea behind this video; two of the band members, Colm and Brian are identical twin brothers - like carbon copies of each other, which got me interested in the idea of copying and reproduction of images. I was also interested in the aesthetic of the home made fliers and self promotional material being produced by local bands, often cracked and torn black and white photocopies showing a picture of the band and a date etc. Also the idea of animating 'silent' photocopies of a face smushed up against the glass of a photocopier to make it appear as though they are singing was part of the idea.. So I photocopied colm's face in a photocopier and got him to move it around as the light from the copier passed his face to create distortions - we made hundreds of photocopies with all the main mouth/facial shapes needed for lip sync. Then I shot them playing on whitescreen, photocopied the frames etc - put the mouth shapes in order and photographed them etc. I think it worked out pretty well in the end..."

Robert Lepage Goes Massive in Quebec City

From Ironic Sans:

Bunge Grain complex in Quebec City is made up of 81 individual silos 30 meters tall. In celebration of Quebec’s 400th Anniversary, artist Robert Lepage used the complex as a screen for an incredible site-specific motion picture called The Image Mill. The film tells the story of Quebec’s 400 years through video, pictures, and sound. I expected a cheesy patriotic movie. But what I saw was subtle and elegant. The video, which shows 10 minutes of the 40 minute film, gives a good idea of what the movie was like. It shows how Lepage made innovative use of the contours of the silos, turning them into bullets, candles, a printing press, cigarettes, etc, and how he turned the entire complex into other kinds of buildings completely, such as a factory and an airport.

SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST

Above_Dejando_Wooster.jpg

Fresh of the heels of tours of the U.S. and Europe, ABOVE has spent the past 6 months painting his way across South/Central America. Starting in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and ending in Mexico City, Mexico, the artist has documented his travels in a four part series of videos, the first of which is available today.

From ABOVE:

"DEJANDO LO MEJOR PARA EL FINAL." Is Spanish for "SAVE THE BEST FOR LAST."

This Word/Play was painted in Bogota, Colombia in an area where every building around this "Last" building was being torn down and demolished for new construction.
Bogota is going through a transitional period "rebirth" as many of the older buildings are being torn down. By now this building is probably already destroyed!

Credit Crunch

"As the economy worsens here in the UK it seems to be becoming more and and more relevant. It features Gordon Brown and our chancellor of the exchequer Alistair Darling... they often pin the blame on the economic situation on the US sub prime market... failing to remember that Gordon Brown, now PM, was in charge of the economy for the past ten years. Politicians tend to have a very short memory."

IDENTITY/Madrid

"IDENTITY/Madrid documents a constant dialogue between neighbors who follow the production of one of Jorge Rodriguez-Gerada´s urban charcoal murals.
IDENTITY/Madrid shows the changing identity of a city being physically and socially reconstructed

By questioning the controls imposed on public space, the role models that represents us in the public space and the type of events that are guarded by the collective memory Rodriguez-Gerada breaks preconceptions of where art is permitted, when art is needed and to whom it is directed."
