Urban sculpture artists , by sakyamuni on Feb 22, 2016 15:54:10 GMT 1, I would add a few names.... First, Isaac cordal, quite famous now. SAM3 and Agostino iacurci are also using 3d on a regular basis, with great results. Graphic surgery too. I also love the "street vitrines" of Benjamin Affagard/Come. To finish, maybe not "urban" but great too, Steph COP, amazing sculptures !

Lazarides : Group Show: A Decade of Lazarides., by sakyamuni on Feb 15, 2016 17:56:49 GMT 1, Some great pics...thanks! I like a lot of the pieces, but I love that JR "Hold Up". Me too, stunning art! Sorry if this is a stupid question: Is there an affordable print series of this image? or only the signed limited ones which seem to sell at least for 1k? Love it. there was one opened edition called "Ladj braquage", originally sold by crakedz in 2008, the online shop selling Kourtrajme products. Cost was 29 euros. They did a Favela print too, same price. But I think they are long gone now...

art stamps french i think, by sakyamuni on Feb 13, 2016 20:55:51 GMT 1, They were for sale during the street art exhibition at the Musee de la poste. Price for the set was under 10 euros (8.9 euros). They were still for sale the last time i went... not online but at the museum shop. Nice little set but not really worth spending more than the cost price...

Banksy Street Art โข Les Miserables, by sakyamuni on Jan 25, 2016 14:25:04 GMT 1, BBC:- A new Banksy artwork criticising the use of teargas on refugees in the Calais "Jungle" camp has appeared on a building opposite the French Embassy. The mural, in Knightsbridge, is based on the poster for musical Les Miserables and shows a young girl with tears in her eyes as a can of CS gas lies beneath her. French authorities have been using bulldozers to clear the camp. Banksy has created several works inspired by the refugee crisis. The picture of the girl, sprayed on the corner of a large complex, includes an interactive QR code. 'Important message' When scanned with a mobile phone, it links to a video which appears to show teargas and rubber bullets being used during a raid at the camp on 5 January. Fans have been visiting the area to look at the elusive street artist's latest creation. Image copyrightGetty Images Image caption Graffiti has been added to Banksy's depiction of Steve Jobs in 'The Jungle' Image copyrightAFP Image caption In December the elusive street artist created a mural on a beach in Calais Image copyrightAFP Image caption Banksy recreated The Raft Of The Medusa by French painter Theodore Gericault in another tribute Julie Moore, a consultant living in London, called the piece "beautiful" and "an important message". Charity worker Nick Papavassiliou said he hoped "it will raise awareness of conditions in the camp". The mural was boarded up for a brief time earlier but the boards were removed shortly afterwards. Attempts have also been made to remove the piece causing damage to the sides of the artwork. Image copyrightPA Image caption The sides of the mural have been damaged following attempts to remove it from the wall Image copyrightGetty Images Image caption Builders tried to cover up the mural but were told to take the boarding down A piece showing the late Apple-founder Steve Jobs as a migrant was painted on a wall in the makeshift Calais camp in December. Parts of the artist's Dismaland theme park, which was temporarily based in Weston-super-Mare last summer, were sent to the camp to be used as shelters. The French government has promised to keep law and order during efforts to relocate the controversial "Jungle" settlement. Interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve said 25 people were arrested on Saturday after migrants attempted to board a UK-bound ferry. interesting to see how the british press is describing the situation. According to a local newspaper (from Calais), what the government has decided is to clear an area of 100m between the tents and the main road, not the "jungle" as a whole. This is where they are using the bulldozer, to avoid new constructions, and where the incidents on 5 January took place. This is the area where incidents happen as people try to board trucks before they enter the tunnel on this track. I don't mean to say that what the French government is doing is great, or deny the abuses and brutality by French police, but I think it is misleading to announce that "French authorities have been using bulldozers to clear the camp" without providing more details on what has been decided exactly. They have also started to build a camp to receive 1500 migrants and it should be done quite soon. No mention of that neither.
As mentioned several time, this is a complex situation, with different issues: police abuses and brutality (which have to be addressed and if proven, prosecuted), humanitarian situation for migrants who want to travel to the UK (France has enough money to provide shelter), legal and humanitarian situation for those who have or want to apply for asylum (same, they need shelter and support while their demand are looked at). Mixing all this to raise awareness is not the best strategy in my view...

Banksy Street Art โข Les Miserables, by sakyamuni on Jan 25, 2016 12:16:12 GMT 1, food for thoughts Human rights watch, by far the most reliable human rights organization, did a research on the issue a year ago. Things are pretty much the same but based on a serious investigation.
www.hrw.org/news/2015/01/20/france-migrants-asylum-seekers-abused-and-destitute
In my view, these issues are a bit too complex to summarize in a single stencil, even if the author is the most talented one...

Share the STIK love!, by sakyamuni on Jan 22, 2016 10:35:32 GMT 1, Let's just forget about prices in this thread. I loved Stik from the beginning, and I still do but I would never spend so much money for his work. However that doesn't change anything about my appreciation of his work. I haven't bought anything signed by him since the Single mum print but that doesn't mean I cannot get anything from him at reasonable prices. I bought the Don't panic/big issue prints and his book, and they provide me as much joy as the diva/single mum's I have on my walls. The price of his work today is another subject and should be dedicated to another thread if enough members are interested. And an additional for "share ther stik hate" maybe ?
