New video from Viet Nam

MAC — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:13:00 +0000

Here’s a new video put together by the good folks at VNTWT in Saigon, VietNam. It’s based on footage and interviews from when I painted there in 2010. I don’t think I was as eloquent as I could have been, but other than that I think it’s a great video and hopefully gives a little bit of an insight into how/why I paint what I do. I really found a lot of inspiration in VietNam and look forward to going back to paint there some more, and hopefully visit some other parts of SE Asia as well.

Also, I have a bunch of other updates to put up, but I’ve been locked away in the studio preparing for upcoming gallery shows & mural projects, but I’ll be adding some more stuff soon..

There is still an ace up last year’s sleeve. Photograff Collectif invited one hundred artists to come and paint a mini city made of paper. This video tells the tale:

MURIS, FROM TURKEY

MTN Cans — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 13:24:12 +0000

Muris from the Bokcrew, a regular contributor to Donut Store, our distributors in Turkey, sent us these two videos of some murals done last month, with various settings, styles, and concepts. These videos show different perspectives on how to use spray paint, and different ways of looking at and understanding it all.

RISK…Beautifully Destroyed….

RISK — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 03:37:17 +0000

Came across this searching the web the other day…… All I can say is well put, No comment….

Risk has been working on a series of pieces called “beautifully destroyed” where he paints totally mundane objects. By painting these random ordinary objects with beautiful splashes of color He exposes the dynamic power of color. He believes he has found the root of his graffiti addiction through color and architecture. (for more on this visit his site riskrock.com.) Rumor has it pieces have randomly disappeared across the United States and reappeared the next day “beautifully destroyed”….
We think the artist objective is to “give back” and let these pieces take their course in society. Unfortunately the public does not get a chance to enjoy these pieces very long. They are usually stolen very quickly and sold to collectors for exuberant prices. The artist does not get any money from this and we don’t get to enjoy them, maybe this is the “course” of our mad society…..
