Leeside Skatepark in Vancouver, British Columbia is known not only for its loyal following of skateboarders, but also for its open invitation to street artists and graffiti artist alike to lay claim to its two-sided tunnel. The skate haven celebrates with its annual “Leeside Halloween Jam.” The night welcomes costumed skaters to shred the square footage of its abandoned transit tunnel venue for one night amidst a sea of fireworks and bottle-rockets. Can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2012. Enjoy.

Once the metal birds that soared the sky, decommissioned planes have now been largely relegated to the junkyard. However an initiative that began in 2010 by Eric Firestone and Carlo McCormick is taking shape with another exhibition to beautify these massive canvases. The Boneyard Project “Return Trip” has invited Andrew Schoultz, How & Nosm, Nunca, Retna and Faile to each paint their own planes. This honor will sit alongside last year’s work including Aiko, Bast, Crash, Daze, El Mac, Ron English, Shepard Fairey, Futura, Erik Foss, Tara Mcpherson, Richard Prince, Lee Quinones and Kenny Scharf among others.
Now showing at:
Pima Air & Space Museum
6000 East Valencia Road

The first video in the Montana Colors Big Addict series comes in the form of this time-lapse offering dubbed, “Endless Obsession.” Directed by Benjamin Roude and with music by Dick Laurent is Dead, the one-part hypnotic, and equal parts obsessive video exploration into the art of the throwup is achieved masterfully. Utilizing only blacks and whites, TILT showcases that a good graffiti artist’s work is never done.

This past weekend I.T.S. Music Playground hosted Good Listener’s album release party at 1980 Gallery in Costa Mesa, CA. I was invited by my good friend Steven Kerns (who’s birthday was also being celebrated) to come by to do some live painting for the show. Beat dropping live performances went down by DJ’s TerribleFolly, Cloud Life, Yes Mistress, GKEN-E, Alphabets, ThirdRock, Smurko, Myrcene and Good Listener. Installation art was set up all around with sweet neon flowers and black lights by Burning Man artist Dana Troy. Overall great night of art and music… always a good time with the ITS family, here are a few flicks from the night.

Made in China
Produced using more than 5500 toy soldiers. the portrait is of a Chinese soldier boy by multimedia artist, Joe Black (Photograph taken by Robert Capa). The image was used on the front cover of LIFE magazine, January 1938 to highlight the Sino Japanese War. The toy soldiers are manufactured in China, hence the title “Made in China”.
This is just one of many amazing pieces by Joe Black. Make sure to check out his website: www.mrjoeblack.com

This past Saturday Fyasko headed up to the EXPO Art Center in Long Beach for Blackbook Session 11. The day was filled with live art, music, workshops and giveaways from sponsors such as Stussy, Famous Stars and Straps, The Wild Ones plus many more. An art contest for different category ages was held where 1st place winners in the 18 -25 age group were eligible for scholarship grants and major prizes by sponsors. DJ Rated R kept it live with the music rolling while the Hawg City Smokers BBQ’ed up some mean burgers and hotdogs. Overall the event was a success with a ton of art and talented youngsters.
