Graffiti Art Magazine #12

July 14, 2011 butterfly

For the 3rd year anniversary of GRAFFITI ART magazine, I was pleased to contribute to the #12 Issue and shared my experience of Los Angeles, from the multiple openings to the Art in the Streets exhibition at the MOCA.

If you are not already familiar with this bilingual French/English magazine, Graffiti Art is a cross-functional mag focussing on rising talents as well as confirmed ones across the international scene. Featuring: street art, painting, illustration, photo, design, graffiti… And artists that find their inspiration in both the city and urban space.

Here are some pics from the current issue, featuring also an interview with brazilian twins Os Gemeos and more.

Graffiti Art is available throughout Europe and the United States in specialized shops as well as stations and airports.

For the “Border Line” show at Signal Gallery, C215 is exhibiting his stencils together with photographer Jeremy Gibbs aka RomanyWG.

C215 new body of work is exploring the imagery of the artist Caravaggio, and his dramatic and intensely troubled world on the edge of sanity.
