Todd Schorr

Todd Schorr’s work is purely phenomenal. His concepts are intriguing and he has the unique ability to skillfully render all of his works with such realism. His style is so refined that it distinguishes him from many of the artist in the Low-Brow scene. http://www.toddschorr.com/

Max’s Kansas City exhibit at the Steven Kasher Gallery

Many of New York’s finest artists and musicians who went on to produce world renowned astounding works through out the 70’s, would often frequent Max’s Kansas City.
http://www.maxskansascity.com/ Max’s Kansas City is another one of New York’s lost cornerstones for the arts. This was a place where many of the artists could escape, network, and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Exit Through a gift Shop

Exit Through a gift Shop is a film about the life Thierry Guetta, who is French immigrant living in Los Angeles and who has an intense desire to fulfill his love for Street Art. Film also sheds light an various other street artist as well. In my opinion I believe the film is a documentary based on the life of Bansky and his transformation as a street artist into his career as a filmmaker. But all around the film is definitely a must it will keep your interest from beginning till the end. I’ve also left you a video which gives you some info on some of the Bansky and some the projects he’s done which gave him his recognition.

Herakut
Herakut, consist of two German graffiti artist, Jasmin(Hera) and Falk(Akut), who make an excellent team as they collaborate to produce such remarkable works of art. In “Permission To Paint” they painted on the walls of the Leonard Street Gallery in London’s East End. This work was open to the public between December 14th 2007 and January 11th 2008. You can see more of Herakut’s work at http://www.herakut.de/ and www.myspace.com/herakut here are two videos for you to check out. Even though the one video is in German it is more of a currant example of why these two are a dynamic dual.

Infamy

Out of all the graffiti documentaries that’s been released this film is definitely one of the best. The film reveals the love and respect that each writer has for the art and the culture; the time it took for them to establish them selves, and the sacrifice that they’ve made to peruse their passion.
