BSA Images Of The Week: 10.16.22

October 16, 2022 ,

Welcome to BSA Images of the Week!

The hits just keep on coming! The mark-making on the streets accompanies us through the rain and sun and turning leaves and a flood of new migrants arriving and attacks on the subway. Not to say that crime is up, but inflation is robbing people’s buying power everywhere right now, and the poor are feeling it first. What would you do if your 2 jobs still don’t pay the rent and buy groceries for the family?

At least there is an ongoing art exhibition on New York streets in every borough.

Here’s our weekly interview with the street, this week featuring: Royce Bannon, Matt Siren, Clown Soldier, Dark Clouds, TCK Crew, OH!, Fresh, Shag, Caty Wooley, CN ONE, GOO, Sluto, SinArt, Desierto Norte, SK8, Dose, Absurd Conclave, ToastOro, Spot, DIP, and Pares.

Living Walls are Alive! : BSA Update from Atlanta

Living Walls are Alive! : BSA Update from Atlanta

Living Walls
Jenna Duffy and Jayne McGinn have been chasing Street Art in Atlanta and taking in the whole carnival of art that is The Living Walls Conference.  Jenna is an experienced fashion photographer and she has been capturing the amazing vibe with her camera while Jayne tell us in her own words what’s the mood for Saturday nights’ Eyedrum Opening. Here is their first dispatch exclusively for BSA:

Currently, Eyedrum, home of the Living Wall’s Gallery Show, and the adjacent loft where the artists are staying, has transformed into what one artist called “a summer camp meets a wedding, meets a reality show”. Street artists from around the world blew up air mattresses and slept slumber party style, painting, working, and hanging out into dawn with a collective of volunteers.

The long white hallway in Eyedrum became the artists’ free-for-all, each given pick and creative freedom to stake claim on any spot not taken. The enormity of Living Walls is evident here; once an eyesore, it is now almost completely covered with pieces large and small. Gaia, Greg Mike, Chris Bakay, Marcos Sueno, Never, Nasdaq, Hugh Leeman and other artists have thrown up murals and wheat pastes. The ultimate goal to cover the hallway is awe-inducing, but when executed the collage of local and international street artists will be an ocular feast.
