Stikman Never Gets BOARD; New Piece for Silent Auction

The Ever Clever Stikman does a little robotic dance to spring!

There is no end to the permutations that street art icon Stikman takes; a 3-D sculpture of sticks, screen printed on vinyl, doing a wiggly move on a page of notated music, and of course, smashed into the pavement for you to gaze upon while waiting for the “WALK” sign.

For the Street Art New York Silent Auction Benefit, Stikman has mutated and mounted a weathered piece of lumber, looking in context!

Winter Chill? Burn Your Art!

A few weeks ago Street Artist Celso and some of his friends decided to have an art show in Miami Beach during the much ballyhooed Art Basel show.

As a response to the aforementioned ballyhoo, and perhaps as a commentary about the romance with and commercialization of street art, the culmination of the “Art Burn” show was to light all of it on fire and grin mischievously. As an additional dystopian thrill for the assembled pyro-artiacts, a copy of Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury was torched also, after memorizing of course.

Thanks to Hargo for the excellent atmospheric pics – and to learn more about the project check out fabulous Carolina Miranda at C-Monster.net
