obama illuminati

shepard fairey's piece in copenhagen is looking tough as fuck right now. he dropped the word 'peace' and gave up the bottom third up to some local artists i believe who got gnarly on it.
after his peace mural was done, he got punched in the face for being 'obama illuminati'. it got completely bombed now and looks terrible which is too bad, it was mad clean looking.

exit through the gift shop


BANKSY DOCUMENTARY premiers tonight in NYC
definitly gonna try and check this over the weekend. ive always been so impressed by banksy. his anonymity, political statements, skills, plus the dude has got some serious balls on him. hopefully he threw up a piece in the city considering all the hype around the film.

he just put this up in LA and the owner of the building already took it down and threw it up on ebay yesterday for $5000.

the rock n roll photographer

jim marshall passed away last week
in his new york city hotel room at age 74
you may not know the name jim marshall
but you have most likely seen some of his photography
hes photographed iconic bands and musicians such as
the beatles, the rolling stones, miles davis, and jim morrison

at monterey international pop festival in 1967


ray charles


probably the most famous photograph of johnny cash

bob dylan


his ability of naturally capturing musicians on and off stage was unparalleled
you are an inspiration to me
rest in peace

jonathan levine gallery

i went into chelsea the other day to check out this street art exhibit. the building wound up being like 12 stories just full of galleries. ran into some wild stuff there.(click on the pictures to see the bigger image)


holland tunnel


weirdest thing of the day. one of the first things we saw after we parked the car


rubiks cubes


jonathan levine gallery. peep the shepard fairey piece in the back. i really liked all the pieces there but the shepard fairey one was especially rad


skate or die


i can only say dont touch anything so many times


this was real sick. there was a camera or sensor in the middle and the shingles would move accordingly. pretty crazy


favorite picture of the day
