The time has finally come for me to release some Urban MUSTS of my taste, letting you know about some of the greatest people the Internet has ever for seen under the grand title of Urban art.
This great graffiti based site is the must, if you want to consider yourself a true stencil artist. Hundreds of street art gurus, thousands of users and a great directory of every kind of forum you could ever relate to this kind of art. From tags to throwies, from stencils to wheatpastes, from sculptures to books – everything you will ever need, including some of the greatest tutorials I’ve ever seen in my life, can be found here.
A UK based artist who not-so-long-ago made the [Bli:p] look like it’s looking now. This man advised me a lot on my style, thoughts and the whole concept, provoking me to get to the real deal of stencil art.
This person is working in a, I believe, very minimalistic kind of street art – he’s making simply beautiful stickers, canvases and more.... His little stickmans and doggies are ever-so-neat, leaving a deep point inside of them.
A Vancouver based artist, who dances, paints, photographs and sells her production to all ‘round the world. Seems great right now, but that’s not it... Her production on Cargoh has risen her to be one of the few promoted artists of the Cargoh store itself – Artists profile videos and the front-page promotion will definitely bring a great future to her.
If we talk about the art of indigo, there is little to be told... To be precise, the perfect description of the feelings the canvases rise is impossible to write. The perfection of the beautifully carved details and the emotions that have been purified and smitten with the wet paint are simply amazing and can’t be described by anyone anywhere.
This street artist, lyricist, poet, urban explorer and photographer can be mainly met in Vancouver, where he pastes excellent wheatpastes of poetry, interesting slogans of both charm and thought and a lot more. One of my favorite works of his whole art persona is the MASAT, where a group of people invaded the rollers of the urban advertising in Madrid and had them replaced with minimalistic slogans of thought. Another great item of perfection are the Abandonment Issues that can always be found in his wonderful blog.
These are the few people people I’d really like you to meet, as the works and the effort they’ve put in to become who they are is so incredible and the works they’ve made and shared in the process are even better.
Stay tuned for the next SLAFT post, expected within a few weeks time. Meanwhile, the redirection of this post can always be found on the front page of the InvadingSAM...
