** 1 Night ** 14 Artists ** at BlackApple LA **.CONTRABAND., by bjornca on Nov 2, 2013 0:03:00 GMT 1, F me. I'm now in NYC next weekend so can't attend. Was really looking forward to this (once I actually heard about it). I think we should push the event back a week, as I'm pretty sure Json would agree... (ps congrats Json).

Also submitted my name. It'll be nice to not have to wait in line for once.

I'd say no so everyone who still took pics would think they are even more special, like I did when I was in the Vatican Museums, but course you can take pics.

I'd say no so everyone who still took pics would think they are even more special, like I did when I was in the Vatican Museums, but course you can take pics. Pondering a thread to post the best "unauthorized" gallery snapshots. My worst bust was in the Cathedral of Saint John in Valetta. Got greedy sneaking pics from the hip of Caravaggioโs, Beheading of St. John the Baptist. Mind you there are three security guards in there, and I already shot two but had to go in for one close up and boom. Guy made me scroll through my phone and delete each one. Felt like a deviant little kid but laughed quite a bit after. Hell, they even let you take pics of the Mona Lisa in the Louver.

** 1 Night ** 14 Artists ** at BlackApple LA **.CONTRABAND., by Black Apple Art on Nov 3, 2013 22:41:07 GMT 1, I have had an overwhelming response to many of the pieces for the show but there was one I was especially curious about as well which was the Martin Whatson & Roamcouch collaboration on the "Bombed" piece. I had a chat with Martin about this piece and he was happy to tell the story and thought I'd share it with the board.
"I ended up doing this collab with Roamcouch because we have known each other for a couple of years now and have been discussing techniques and styles frequently. We decided to do the collaboration before my Tokyo show so it was natural to go for it when I was there. Roamcouch created the stencils, painted the canvases and sent them to my friend in Tokyo where I painted the tags and then had the canvases delivered back to him." "When Roamcouch suggested doing a collaboration some time ago, I was happy to work with him. For me, the collaboration was very interesting because I abandoned the Hyper Realistic stencils a few years ago and he seems to be one of the best doing them at the moment and it was very nice for me to see how it would work with the new rough style I'm working on at the moment. My favorite thing about the end result is the large gap between japanese patience and sense of detail combined with my Norwegian rough northern style. Don't really know what more to say that we are both very happy with how it turned out!"
- Martin Whatson
One of the two versions "Bombed" (Sepia) will be featured at LA Contraband Nov 9th. Click here for location and invites. I want to thank Whatson and the other 14 artists who worked hard to help get their works to the US, many for the first time, and make this all possible.

Really think this is a significant step in the art and culture that we love so very much and we only hope many others follow his lead.
