June 12, 2015 butterfly 4 Comments

For the 4th year running, the Open Summer Festival invited twenty international artists in Toulouse at the new creative hub Cinquante Cinq / Espace Cobalt. Outside the exhibition space, guests enjoyed live painting sessions with a Graffiti Jam, but also relaxed with a good summer feeling including barbecue and music. We also bumped into artists from the Toulouse scene like Tilt, 100Taur.

Invited artists included: Babz – Katre – Twopy – Moner – Arnem – Meyer – Druid81 – Most – Heis – Fasim – Royce – Taroe – Grems – Opera – Gomer – Dashe – Reso – Demon – Panks – Azek – Sherio – Redy – Ofusk – Smice

London: Brazilian invasion

May 6, 2015 butterfly

Brazilian artists are currently bringing lots of colours to the streets of London. After his solo show at Montana Barcelona ( covered here) Cranio has been hitting the streets with his witty characters. In parallel, two São Paulo street artists, Mateus Bailon and Rafael Sliks are currently showing new paintings and limited editions in a joint exhibition titled ‘Naturally Unstable’ hosted by Dope Gallery.

Bailon colourful paintings are inspired by myths, tropical birds and nature reminiscent of Amazonian Rainforest, while Sliks pixação style is very energic and abstract.

At the opening guests could also enjoy a live painting session with the two artists joined with Cranio.
