GREAT SHOW TO GO CHECK OUT!!!

Banksy is at it again! This rare solo show is a must see! Banksy, who still remains completely anonymous despite his fame and how many years hes been in the game, is probably one of the best street artist the world has ever seen. His political and social commentaries are hilarious and dead on. Please go see this show, i promise you it will be great.

Cheers,
Mute

PS: sorry for not getting this to you guys before the opening.

Seen On The Streets of Seattle - Ryan's Refriderator Magnet Billboard

By far one of my favorite billboard hacks in a long time. Ryan, an artist in Seattle used
low-tac adhesive vinyl so that the words could be re-arranged like refrigerator magnets.
He made the "Clear Channel" banner as well to create the full effect.

December Is Shaping Up To Be A Great Time To Be In New York

As was the case last year, December is shaping up to be an amazing month of shows in New York.

And then on Saturday night, Blek le Rat, Blu, Bo130, D*Face, Microbo and Space Invader will all be showing new work as part of "The Streets of Europe: A Survey of European Street Art" opening at the Jonathan Levine Gallery in Chelsea.
