Ladrillo y Carne, Smithe.
Smithe. Mexico City, 1987.
After more than 10 years of painting in the streets, Smithe, a young artist, presents his first solo show in Vertigo, an art gallery in Mexico City. Ladrillo y Carne, shows us his perspective of the mexican society.
Las ciudades no están terminadas; sus calles, muros, edificios y efigies lucen incompletas y así funcionan. Sobran contrucciones en este laberinto mal hecho. Entender a los ciudadanos como obras negras, inacabados, que avanzan rumbo a sus empleos, familias e infiernos. Atrapados en una rutina: nacer, crecer, reproducirse y morir. Y entre cada una de esas rutinas, más rutinas: trabajar, no dormir, encontrar el amor, etc.
Estamos entre paredes, atrapados y condenados a desgastarnos para permanecer con un objetivo claro: la lenta destrucción.
-Smithe.
Brad Downey – grafitti restoration 2
Brad Downey experimented graffiti restoration in Wien, last year.
He did it again with the restoration of a piece Banksy painted for the 1st Backjumps festival in Berlin.
The squares on the wall were the spots where Banksy painted. Where are those paintings ? Extracted by Brad Downey to be sold on ebay ? Already stolen by someone else ? Time will tell…

Sandwriting
It is probably the biggest tag in the world. And it’s -surprisingly- made by a wealthy sheikh. He has written his name on the surface of his own private island (United Arab Emirates ) so big it can be seen from Google map. The letters seem to be a full kilometer tall in some places.
Jim Denevan is an American artist who creates temporary land art. He makes drawings on sand, earth and ice that are eventually erased by waves and weather.
