Ludo has made a welcome return to London in recent weeks with works from his Natures Revenge series appearing all over the East End of London. I managed to track down a few last Friday but if you want to see them in person be quick – just like real flo…

While I love Shok-1′s recent monochrome fixation the colour in this latest piece really makes the image ‘pop’ off the wall. Shok claims that he’s only working his way back to full colour at present so expect more hues to creep in on the next …

Loving this punker on the side of Shok-1′s latest vehicle makeover. The vehicle itself is an old bus converted into a mobile tattooing parlour and if you get a chance to see it in person check out the amazing level of detail.

Been a while since the last post. Partly because I’ve been taking a bit of time out and partly because there’s been nothing going on. Well, except for Eine painting an entire new alphabet in just one street! Lower case all the way, it turns a road off …

Candy Shop – A Burning Candy pop up show, 8th May to 22nd May 2010 at 10 Palmers Road, London E2 OSY. Thu – Sat, 1-7pm. Check highrollersociety.co.uk for details.
Don’t know Burning Candy? They are responsible for work like this all over London:

The Elephant Parade in London recently started with a scale and scope in an outside art project that has rarely been seen before. Over 250 elephants were custom painted by artists and some celebrities and placed in central London. I…

It’s election day tomorrow where we get the chance to put an X in a box to choose between the Conservative/Labour duopoly that’s been in control for all our lives (with apologies to any readers who were over 18 years old about 60 years ago). As usual w…

With a big thanks to Warholian again and the photographers credited here are 5 more Banksy pieces that have surfaced in the San Francisco area over the past few days.

This week saw the launch of the latest section of the London Overground to go live. Running from Dalston Junction down through to New Cross it runs straight through areas like Hoxton and Shoreditch at roof top level. Which is pretty damn handy if you w…

It’s a work in progress but this ‘Urban Assault Vehicle’ can currently be seen turning heads on the streets of London. Shok-1′s given one of the city’s most infamous and battered vans a completely new paint job in his own organic graffiti style. T…

Banksy has at least six pieces in San Francisco now – thanks again to Warholian.com for the use of their pictures. These photos show both the pieces and their context which as always shows up some really relevant placement. Warholian’s Flickr stre…

The latest copy of VNA  (verynearlyalmost) landed on the doormat this morning with a reassuring thud. Sure enough its another 100 pages of quality content with the usual great pictorial roundups of graffiti, tags, stickers, stencils and paste ups….

Hot on the heels of his work in L.A. (coinciding with the Stateside release of Exit Through The Gift Shop film) further new Banksy work has now appeared in San Francisco. Warholian were pretty much first up with the news and kindly sent these pict…

As both hoped for and expected Roa has been hitting the streets of London with massive new works to coincide with his show at the Pure Evil Gallery. I tracked down a couple of the most recent ones today which were lit up by the fantastic sunshine we’ve…

Escif’s show opens at Pictures On Walls on Friday (16th April) evening between 6 – 9pm . Prior to the opening work from the Spanish artist has gone up on the shutters outside the pictureonwalls ground floor premises at 46-48 Commercial S…

If you’ve seen Banksy’s Exit Through The Gift Shop or even just the new extended trailer for the film you’ll have seen one of the funniest moments – graffiti artist Escif getting arrested in quite ridulculous head gear while painting a wall. Other (sli…

Roa’s work translates easily from the streets to a gallery setting and this show in the small but perfectly formed Pure Evil Gallery in Shoreditch is one of the finest I’ve seen in a long time. Featuring a pretty unique interactive element many of the …

Over the past year Roa has been, in my humble opinion, smashing it worldwide. So its great to see that he has his first solo show in London opening on Thursday night (April 8th) at the Pure Evil Gallery.

Roa in London:

So the elections been called and we get to choose between two brands of basically the same washing powder.
Of course other parties are available but short of a hung Parliament there’s no chance they will wield any real power.
Here’s Dr D taking on the…

Robbo’s well documented take back of his original eighties piece location and the taunting slogans painted on a further three Banksy works on the Regents Canal all received a new twist late last week. Where he had painted ‘King Robbo’ three l…
