When people think about graffiti or the "art of" they usually associate it with the outdoors. The side of a train or the ubiquitous wall are the canvas of choice for most aerosol artists. The Art of the Streets has been permeating the higher echelons of art for years now, with pseudo-celebrity artists making headline news earlier this year or with high profile heists like the Marc Ecko gallery theft, it would seem our Artists have are finally coming out of the shadows and are getting the respect they deserved.
Crewest has been taking Graffiti Art to the next level since 2002, currently featuring URBNLUX, an expansion (of the definition) of Graffiti Art that adds industrial design elements to the fray. Should IKEA start circling the wagons? You decide.
Show opened October 8 and closes October 29.
