Hasn’t been 3 weeks and already Shepard Fairey’s May Day Mural, an advertisement for his show at Deitch Projects, has been tagged. The mural, located on Houston and Bowery (New York), was bombed early this morning. There are a lot of mixed opinions on this, but everyone needs to realize, that’s graffiti. That is where Shepard Fairey got his start. No denying that.
Big ups to ADEK JADE FUCT REFRY. This is REAL GRAFFITI.
Talented artist, and close friend, Andy “Midzt” Rios has unfortunately been wrongly accused of painting “cat” figures in and around downtown LA. This video shows just how stupid and ignorant the LAPD can be. Best wishes out to the homie. We will keep you updated as soon as we know anything further. YOU GOT OUR SUPPORT MY FRIEND!

Last weekend we TO DIE FOR added a huge landmark to their Flagship store in Costa Mesa, Ca. Montana GOLD paint flowed them several boxes of paint to collaborate a mural with artists Greg “Craola” Simkins of IMSCARED, Deph of To Die For, and Maxx242 of The Wild Ones. Montana is one of today’s premier paint leaders that sets the standards for the art movement of graffiti. Click on the images below to view the mural.
