Jef Aérosol Fresh Work: Sicily!
Monday, August 24th, 2009
Legendary street artist Jef Aérosol has been busy recently with new work. He has updated his Flickr today with a host of images showing his latest pieces.
The work is up on the walls of Sicily, Italy.
For those of you who aren’t familiar with Jef Aérosol, he is a French artist who led the street art stencil revolution in France back in the 80’s. Widely recognised as one of the great stencil artists, Jef Aérosol’s work is comparable to that of Banksy – whilst there are similarities between the two, Jef should be recognised for his work independently.
Check more images of his work below.
Shepard Fairy Interviews Banksy

One influential artist interviewing, one of the most world renowned street artists of our times. This interview needs little introduction, and I’m sure it has already been re-posted around the inter-web several times since me writing this post. Check it out below
FAKE On The Streets – Street Action
Wednesday, August 12th, 2009FAKE is a street artist from Amsterdam with a huge range of pieces of work which all seem to revolve around children… just kidding, although they do feature heavily in his work.
FAKE mainly uses stencils to create his masterpieces and sticks to black and white paint only using colour to highlight sections of his work. He has recently uploaded one of his ‘Street Action’ videos showing him getting up in his home town of Amsterdam.
The video is short and sweet and shows him getting one of his iconic designs up on a bill board. Watch the video below:
LukeDaDuke: Iconic Dog
Monday, August 10th, 2009
If you thought Funky Red Dog was dog mad, then check out LukeDaDuke. LukeDaDuke is a sticker and poster artist from the Netherlands. He is most renowned for his polygonal dog character which can been seen on walls around the world.
His iconic dog character has been perfected and is synonymous with the dutch artist. The design has been around for a few years now which just demonstrates how timeless a good image can be. Whether it’s blown up to paste on a skyscraper or miniaturized to print on a sticker it still looks great.

The show featured no less than 100 pieces, submitted from various artists all over the world, with one main concept, that their pieces were free to the public.

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009Just stumbled across this amazing 200X200cm piece by LECKO. I stared at my screen for ages when i first came across this, the photo realism is unreal! so much detail. This may be down to the 300 stencils and 250 hours of work that went into the piece!
