KAWS has been our fave for quite sometime.  From seeing his stuff along the NJ Transit line in Newark in the early days to his infamous subway line ad doctoring to his vinyl toys, the guy is an inspiration.  It’s great to see a guy have success that started out on the street.  This pillow is one of the new pieces in his collection.  Click the photo to check out more KAWS merchandise.

Art x Graffitti x Graphic Design all go hand in hand.  Superblast has all three down on lock.  Click the photo to read more about this great designer.

We’re interested in all graffitti and street art. We ran across this little gem over at the Obey site. Thanks guys! Click the photo to go to the Flickr page.

We dig graffitti, period.  How about the 25th Anniversary of Subway Art?  This is what we’re talking about, the real deal.

Fecal Face is our boy Mildew’s fave website here in the office. He sent this over to me today inbetween pixels and stogies.  Check out the full on fashion sense a la LA Chola style.  Love it.  Click the photo for more Photos of the Day.

We love new art and art shows. Whether it’s at the Parlour Gallery here in Asbury Park, or frequent Asbury Park, NJ visitor Jonathan Levine’s gallery in NYC, we love checking out new stuff. It just so happens that Levine has a show going on at his gallery until May show of Phil Frost on paper. You may remember Frost’s work from the DJ Shadow record Preemptive Strike. If you don’t know this guy, get familiar. Check out more info on Phil Frost from Jonathan Levine’s website. Click the photo.

We dig art.  Whether it’s graffitti, street art, gallery shows, sculptures, or vintage fonts and signs, we dig it it all.  Pharrell from N.E.R.D. has come up with something cool, ARTST Gallery and Guild.  Upload your art to this site and be seen!  You know you want to.  Click the photo to check out the site.  Sweet!
