Check out some nutty Brazilians scale a building face and tag it up:

Fuck that shit. Three man human ladder and shit, while two stories off the ground…? They don’t get shit for style points from me, but ‘DAMN’ for balls-out-ed-ness!

If you live in a big city (in Europe), you’ve probably had the opportunity to check one of these ‘Hyper Facades’ out. For the rest of us, there’s the YouTube version. The good stuff starts at about 30 seconds in:

Yes, it is just another big budget advertising gimmick, but at least it’s a visual treat. Not like a billboard that sits for weeks on end, looking shitty until some brave graffiti artists puts something worthwhile on it.

Thx @ Xiaman for the link.

The Mud Maid at Heligan Gardens by Sue and Pete Hill (brother/sister). Pretty badass… I’d love to stumble upon something like this while hiking. What a trip.

People tend to like messes (as long as they don’t have to clean them up). Here’s a big one by some random Bay Area kids with spray cans…

Thx @ Bonner (Via Jux)

The fight to save Los Angeles’ murals continues… Yes, there are dumbasses out there that are hell bent on removing Los Angeles’s culture one mural at a time. Shit is pretty retarded.

Saber AWR makes a bold statement. In the sky. I think this might be a first for ‘graffiti’. Anyway, this content was stolen from LATaco.com:
In an unprecedented show of aerial force, LA Artist SABER bombarded Downtown Los Angeles today with skywriting jets to protest the city’s mural moratorium. SABER is no stranger to big statements; in 1997 the artist executed the world’s largest graffiti piece on the concrete bank of the LA river. His latest target is City Hall and the unconstitutional mural moratorium that has been force for several years. Los Angeles, The Mural Capital of the World, has been able to find massive amounts of public space for corporate advertisements, but not for works of art. The city spends more than $10,000,000+ on graffiti abatement programs, but none on mural programs that divert young artist to legal walls to display their art. Existing murals are crumbling and the city’s best artists are forced to go to Europe and other US cities to display their largest and best works.

SABER’s personal act of skyward rebellion is a call to arms for the city’s artists and art lovers. What are you doing to fight the city’s war on public art? One thing everyone can do right now is sign the petition.

What up folks? Just saw this commercial from the Osiris folks, featuring Del The Funky Homosapien and Risk One. Don’t blink…or you’ll miss it:

More info (from original poster): Conceptualized by Osiris, produced by Futuristic Films and directed by Nicholaus Goossen, who was a first-time director at age 26, making the cult-classic, “Grandma’s Boy” for Adam Sandler, We Are Osiris, subtly infuses iconic Osiris athletes, a graffiti artist and a rapper through notable action clips that tell the brand story in a unique documentary style — all in 30 seconds.

*I expected this to be cooler for some reason…I mean, Grandma’s Boy is hands down one of the funniest movies around. Add in graffiti and Hip-Hop…pffff…
For those that ‘missed’ that Risk One piece in the quarter second it was displayed, here you go. Frozen in time:

Risk One – Osiris – 2011

Hearda a dude named “Monster”? Homie goes by DEM189 and is out of France, paints murals…but check out these hyper-detailed sketches:

Monster kills it with detail:

Freshness:

Dem’s pieces are about as detailed as his sketches, but for some reason I just really dig his paper style. Super crisp and super detailed. Check out his website (MonstreViande) for a ton more sketches, murals, etc. Remember though…the dude is French, although there’s not much written. It’s mostly pics so you can be visually entertained for quite a while.
