Capturing An Artist At Work
/Black Palace is a Mexican-based street art installation by the NY-based artist WK. This short doc on it's installation is pretty great unto itself.
New York Is A Zoo
/
The City is a playground. Art is all around. Good ideas abound. Huckleberry is a hound.
Thanks to street artist Joshua Allen Harris for these wonderful creations. Clink on the link to watch the video and see them come alive -- sorry about the commercial, but it can't be helped... (And thanks Melissa G. for the tip!)
The Art Of Clean
/Moose does "reverse" graffiti. He cleans away the dirt and grime to leave cool images on the newly clean surfaces. Not only does he make the world a better place to look at it, but he helps us realize how dirty the world really is (tip BoingBoing). For more info, check it out here.
Best Film of 2008: Blu
/I saw another installation/film of Blu's awhile back at a gallery in NYC with my family and we were blown (bluwn?) away. In that one you could see him painting the animation but this one, sans human, with the sun and clouds working as the clock, adds onto the prior one's promise.
Right now, this is my favorite film of the 2008. This guy's imagination soars -- and thus does the same for mine. My son had loved the first one as much as I did. You might want to scout this one first before screening for the young 'uns as it is a tad freaky -- but good freaky fun if you ask me.
Of course it is ultimately graffiti and you may have to explain that one, less your walls start to change. Not to mention the explanation on why Buenos Aires is looking cooler than NYC.
