Just read this on Brooklynite's site.... SORRY FOLKS!!!!

I guess the volcanic ash has something to do with this...

The opening date for DOLK • M-CITY's "EUROTRASH" show has
be postponed indefinitely. More info to come shortly.

VERY nice! and just $175 each for hand stenciled pieces! I would have expected double that price.

Very nice prints.

Especially taken a shine to M-CITY 293

ive always wondered why hand stenciled prints werent cheaper.

i mean really. is there any difference between a hand stenciled and a silkscreen? a handstenciled is probably quicker as well.... never understood why there arent more of these hand stenciled ones!

Well done to M-City for putting these out at such a great price!

prints are up now...

For Immediate Release:

Carmichael Gallery is pleased to present a showcase of new canvases, site-specific gallery

Perhaps the most systematic in his stenciling process of all the artists of the genre, Marius
Waras aka M-City is famed for the intricately immersive industrial cityscapes he stencils in large
scale on the walls of what are often equally industrialized areas. The academically trained
artist’s work is expansive in scale and scope, ranging from inflated renderings of urban forms
and life-size wooden reproductions of machinery to monochromatic stenciled murals, canvases
and screen prints.

M-City is widely acknowledged as an important, if somewhat elusive member of the global street
art movement, yet his work is quite unlike that of his peers. The reductive nature of his pieces
lends them a timeless quality, while their austere coloring of the world as a brutally capitalist yet
marvelously sensible, beautiful machine evokes the Futurist perspective drawings of Antonio
Sant’Elia and the Utopian visions of the early Modernists. Recurring images include monolithic
cloud-scraping tower-blocks, factories, ships and other man-made structures that rise from and
within unsuspecting abandoned walls. The elements of these technically complex ‘m-cities’ are
taken to new heights with each successive project using a strict set of ingredients that recall the
philosophy of Le Corbusier, who saw function as the basis for all form.

M-City’s monochromatic murals and canvases have graced urban and gallery walls across the
world. The steady growth of his admirers, the strength of his imagery and the steadfast
message contained within his work provides him with a solid foundation as he continues his
efforts to strive for a visual realization of utopian urban efficiency, an effort he makes on a
conceptual plane as yet unparalleled by the rest of the stencil movement.
