Dutch multidisciplinary street artist Eelco van den Berg (‘Virus) was in back in Brooklyn last week for a minute putting up a new wall with the Bushwick Collective – cat, fox, and bid in his distinctive style. “In the eighties I got infected with the hip hop virus,” he says, “Especially with graffiti.” Though he has painted with some of the masters of the graffiti scene, his own style evokes the folkloric and the graffuturist and 3-D modeling. Illustrator, painter, graffitist, all – Eelco is making an impression with his aerosol work no matter the label.
