NASTY inaugure les ateliers d'artistes du 14e

Les Journées portes ouvertes des ateliers d'artistes du 14e, se déroulent les 29 et 30 mai. Invité spécial : Nasty, qui réalisera un happening.

150 ateliers ouverts au public : Avec plus de 150 participants, les Journées portes ouvertes des ateliers du 14e constituent la plus importante manifestation de ce genre à Paris. Durant deux jours, peintres, sculpteurs, photographes, artisans d'art ouvrent les portes de leur atelier pour accueillir le public dans l'intimité de leur lieu de création. Les ateliers se concentrent dans le quartier Montparnasse, toujours haut lieu de la création, autour du parc Montsouris et dans le quartier Pernety.

Nasty, performance graffiti art : l 'artiste urbain reconnu pour ses supports uniques reconstituera un mur de 30M2 a partir de Lunablock : legos géants créés par la marque Lunatic Construction, avec laquelle il s'était associé lors de sa dernière exposition a la Galerie Bailly Contemporain, en Septembre 2009.

Il réalisera dessus une immense fresque sur le thème des droits de l'homme. Une occasion unique de présenter le Graffiti Art sous un angle résolument urbain et original :

_La fresque sera ensuite exposée à l'intérieur de la Mairie pour une durée de 2 mois.

_Un atelier pédagogique permettra aux enfants de reproduire la fresque de l'artiste et de les sensibiliser au droits de l'homme a travers une technique ludique et une approche originale.

Un grand marché de la création : Les amateurs pourront aussi faire un tour (et, pourquoi pas, céder à un coup de cœur et repartir avec une toile ou une sculpture) sur le marché de la création où plus de 70 artistes peintres, sculpteurs, artisans d'art et photographes exposent.

Journées portes ouvertes des ateliers d'artistes du 14e : Samedi 29 mai de 14h30 à 20h ; dimanche 30 mai de 11h à 19h. Nombreux ateliers accessibles aux personnes handicapées.

Germany, Karlsruhe: June 5-July 3, 2010: Street Art Exhibition

Nuthouse Red Carpet Exibition

From *05.06.2010* till *03.07.2010* the Exhibition will take place at
Gotec Kulturhaus in Karlsruhe, Germany
organized by the Nuthouse Gallery.

Ambition of this group exibition is to show work of free artists and designers who have their origins in streetart.

The vernissage is taking place on 05.06.2010 from **7:00 pm** till **1:00** am.
From that day on, the exhibition will be opened every Thursday from 18:00 h on.

Artists:
  • Rafael Gerlach/ Satone (Munich/Germany)
  • Werner Zwakhalen/Nash (Sittard/Netherlands)
  • Joos van Barneveld/Does (Sittard/Netherlands)
  • Yuske Imai (**São Paulo/Brasil)
  • Alexander Becherer /Biserama (Gengenbach/Germany)
  • Octavi Serra Arrizabalaga/Aryz (Barcelona/Spain)
To provide insight to the worldwide streetart scene and by that create awareness and acceptance for this art form- not less than that the NUTHOUSE GALLERY made its ambition. Founded in 2006 by Kelly Amann and Christian Krämer, the gallery today presents itself as platform for contemporary urban art and serves as mediator concerning art in public spaces. What here is just evident to the insider the NUTHOUSE GALLERY wants to make accessible to everyone to reveal background and intention of the artists. Exhibitions take place at regular intervals and show the current works of active, not only to street art restricted artists. The NUTHOUSE GALLERY presents the different facets of the global Graffiti movement, from its classic beginnings of "style writing" all the way to three-dimensional nameplates and stencil graffiti which lead to surreal and abstract designed character- and designertoys.

London Miles Gallery is proud to present a group exhibition featuring a bold selection of international artists from the burgeoning New Contemporary Art movement. Produced in collaboration with Los Angeles Thinkspace Gallery, and showcasing a comprehensive selection of forty-five of the most exciting and talented individuals working within this movement, 'The Next Generation' brings new international talent to the doorstep of London's Contemporary art community.

For many of these artists this exhibition marks their first showing on UK soil, to date having cultivated avid followings across the globe.

Curator and Thinkspace Gallery Director Andrew Hosner says "We are excited to be able to bring to London a survey of some of the most exciting artists from the new contemporary art movement. When we had the idea of doing this show, only one gallery came to mind, and that's London Miles. Their commitment to bringing more attention and acclaim to this movement in the UK is unparalleled and we are honored to be working with them on this groundbreaking exhibition.

Tempt and the fantastic Eyewriter

Tempt is one of San Francisco's and Los Angeles' best loved writers, and for years he published the awesome graffiti magazine, Big Time.

In 2003, Tempt was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), a rare neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive muscle weakness and resulting in paralysis. His family, friends, tribe and crews (K2S/STN) have been providing support and holding benefits for him ever since.

You may already have heard about Tempt and Eyewriter, an important system for writing with your eyes, that Graffiti Research Lab has been working on.

OPENING SATURDAY //12.06.10 // FROM 7 PM

OPENING HOURS MONDAY - FRIDAY/ 11.00-19.00 SATURDAY // 11.00 – 18.00

The first edition of PUBLIC PROVOCATIONS at Carhartt Gallery opened with an overwhelming sucess in 2009. The second edition will be on display from June till October 2010. Famous protagonists of the graffiti and urban art scene meet in Weil am Rhein simultaneously to the international art fair ART BASEL. This unique compilation of urban art with its extraordinary diversity of styles and shapes will continue the curatorial work of Sigi von Koeding I Dare.

Walls, backyards and contemporary city landscapes are hardly imaginable without all kinds of artistic forms of expression. Through colours, shapes and conversion artists claim the public space to be their sphere of expression and not only of provocation. Over the years new techniques, materials and platforms found their use. Thereby the art work was more and more respected and finally found its way into the galleries.

The exhibition boxes of the Carhartt Gallery show exceptional artists who have influenced or still influence the complexity of urban and street art with their styles. This unique compilation of national and international scripts and styles shows a varied profile of contemporary urban art.

KNOWN GALLERY presents:

POSE Rumble!! and KC ORTIZ Forced Rebellion

Known Gallery is pleased to present two Chicago based artists, graffiti based artist Pose and photographer KC Ortiz.

Opening Reception will be held for the artists Saturday, May 22nd, 8-11pm. The Exhibition will be on display from May 22nd though to June 12th, 2010.

POSE "RUMBLE!!"

Pose currently lives and works in Chicago, he is a member of the acclaimed West Coast artist collective The Seventh Letter, as well as being a founder of his own Chicago based design and art firm We Are Supervision. He has traveled internationally on his own and with The Seventh Letter specifically to showcase his skills as one of the best graffiti artists out there. This is Pose's first solo exhibition at Known Gallery.

In this exhibition Pose investigates a traditional style of comic book illustration and painting, infusing it with his own recognizable twist. Complexly layered, his work is bursting at the seams, often stunning and confusing onlookers with an intense amount of intricate detail. In this body of work, Pose has translated his trademarks in his signature graffiti style, (classic cartoon characters, sign painting fonts, a flat graphic style, and vivid color choices) from the street to the studio, creating elaborate large- and small-scale paintings. These new works explore imagery figuration in bold ways, with traces of his personality... the struggle, humor, sarcasm, love, hate, and always a feverish push towards the new.

KC ORITZ "FORCED REBELLION"

KC Ortiz is a photojournalist based out of his hometown, Chicago. His work focuses on under-reported issues and over looked people and has taken him to all corners of the globe in pursuit of his work. This series of photographs documents the remaining Hmong's daily lives and the desperate struggle faced from exposure to the never ending "Secret War" in the mountainous jungles of Laos. Rebels, Communists and CIA agents all played their part in KC Ortiz's photo reportage; over a year of planning, secret meetings, and a clandestine entry into Laos brought him to the Hmong rebels and a world unseen by outsiders where there for three weeks he lived with the jungle Hmong in order to document their plight and living conditions.

Ortiz's has been published in numerous international publications, including The Independent and A-Magasinet.

Vitche
Rodez

Babui



Conquistadores is an overview of fresh contemporary talent from Spain and Latin America that is – at least metaphorically speaking – out to conquer the world. Globalization has affected both the Spanish and Latin American art scene. Recent art contributions from these countries seem to be nothing but a footnote in global art history books. Far from it! Both art cultures are more alive than ever! And that is what the exhibition Conquistadores is about.
