Wyatt Mills Reader Find

By Wyatt Mills in New Art on Tuesday 4 December 2012

I’ve noticed lately that people are confusing the term ‘street art’ with ‘graffiti’. I think it’s a necessary reminder for us all to take a look at the work of Borondo, a street artist based in Spain. He focuses on painterly, large scale figurative works that absorbs and interacts with their environment.

Street art by Dioz

Meital Bar Natan Reader Find

By Meital Bar Natan in New Art on Wednesday 7 November 2012

Dioz is an upcoming artist whose paintings, illustrations, street art, and animation have a uniquely rough voice and a defined line to them. Dioz manages to present his figures as pathetic, grotesque, trashy, yet appealing to the viewer. You can find a lot of his works on the streets of Tel Aviv, Jaffa, Barcelona and Hamburg.

Ron English Reader Find

By Ron English in New Art on Monday 22 October 2012

Street Art is fast becoming an international institution, the likes of which the insular Art World has never seen. As a cultural phenomenon, Street Art has become something more akin to a stadium rap/rock concert than the sparsely attended pictures on walls model which has served as the Art World’s signature profile for some time now.

Lost Street Art of London: a Lomo series by Gavin Hammond

Nini Baseema Contributor

By Nini Baseema in New Art on Thursday 18 October 2012

Graffiti and street art have always been transient forms of self-expression. Deemed by many to be mere acts of vandalism, the artists’ work generally exists only for a very short period of time (unless we’re talking Banksy, Bambi or Roa), before being washed away in the next public clean-up.

New art by Beau Stanton

Ron English Reader Find

By Ron English in New Art on Tuesday 16 October 2012

Delivering a profound statement in a seductive manner is the ultimate goal of artist Beau Stanton. Balancing a love for innovation and an intrigue of decay, Beau poetically expresses steely-eyed vision of the now simultaneously seen from the future and the past. Stanton caught the attention of the art world last season with a solo show in New York’s Chelsea arts district and then spent the summer spreading the love street art style throughout Europe, culminating with a painting on a section of the Berlin Wall.

Ukrainian street art by Kislow

Mareike Muller Contributor

By Mareike Muller in New Art on Tuesday 16 October 2012

Kislow is one of the most outstanding and talented street artists from the Ukraine. The Kiev-born artist prettifies gigantic murals with his very imaginative, playful and personal style. Even though Surrealism is the epoch that probably influenced him the most, his highly detailed art could as well be inspired by fairytales from the last century.

Mars 1, Brin Berliner, Alex and Allison Grey: The Visionaries

Ron English Reader Find

By Ron English in New Art on Monday 15 October 2012

When I hear about ‘visionary art’ I usually react with a cringe. Most of this genre is the product of under-talented, overdosed navel gazers. Many who are attracted to visionary arts are promised a retinal nirvana, a focused porthole into another dimension, a deeply conceptual experience that is a visual open door. But this artistic sojourn requires such an intense level of skill and endurance that only a blessed few are up for the task. I recently had the good fortune to spend an evening with three artists who have taken that difficult journey to its biblical mountaintop.

My solo show, Crucial Fiction, opens November 1 at Opera Gallery NYC. It’s a collaboration with my former self.
