OUTSIDERS NYC
Ok everybody already posted this so I will save the words and show the art something not so many people posted.
Blu
Kaws,Kr and Reas in front of a Reas/Todd James piece that was ill…Reas is one of my favorite artists he’s unique,funny and just plain fresh
Stole this from Miss Infos site I didnt have any good shots of Todd’s work
Mode 2 he is an amazing artist….I wanna see a solo show in NYC someday soon….Also hes a great dude…More on him later
Space Invader is always pretty fresh to me
More Space Invader
David Cho….He had several pieces in the show this was my favorite…
Here go a few newer guys I dug…Ian Francis
One more by Ian Francis
Johnathon Yeo has a really cool style of taking porno pics and creating collages on top of sketches of people to create amazing paintings….It’s unique and impressive to me
Connor Harrington…Good painter craze government name….he sounds like a waspy knucklehead…..He should change his name to Ray Ray or Pookie for street cred
JR … He’s a photographer he had a few pieces in the show… I liked this the others not so much
Not always a fan of Paul Insects work but this piece was cool ………
This piece by Vihls was super dope….
Ok here’s some people who were there: Steve Lazirides the curator and producer of the show and my pal from China Lin Lin aint she cute!
Old School: Wane COD the mayor of grafitti, my high school cutting partner Sharp and myself !
Daze and Keo my dudes!
All in all a good show some stuff I really liked a bunch of stuff. What I liked the most was the effort to come to NYC and open up shop, the platform it gave some great artists and friends of mine and the energy that some of the newer artist bring to the table I particularly dig Johnathon Yeo hes sick…….Steve Lazirides continues to push the envelope and showed us that you can empower yourself and show the artist’s you believe are important and that in itself is an art. Food for thought…….

Missed this opening, but the works are looking good people!
All props due to the organizers of this show. Curators- keep digging if you really want to see what’s happening with outsider / underground art in this city - a lot of great work is being overlooked for trends…( and i don’t mean my own work )
