JR - Women Are Heroes - Paris, by closeencounters on Sept 30, 2009 19:30:57 GMT 1, wow, what an incredible project! i was in the greek street space a couple of months back and they were showing the film made when JR was in Brazil i think it was, it was one of the most impressive films i've seen this year. tight editing, brilliant camera work and a beautiful sound track too - if you haven't seen it i think you can see it through his sight and it's well worth a watch!

Meeting Of Styles โข Graffiti Event, by closeencounters on Jun 7, 2009 23:09:33 GMT 1, Was treated to some live painting for this down on Sclater St. yesterday afternoon. I can't see Inkie down for this but he was definitely there yesterday along with Cheo and (I think) Soker. Was a pleasure watching them doing the outlines for their pieces. The whole length of Scalter St has been whited out for this so it's going to be huge down there this weekend. Recommended viewing I'd day for those in London.
some cool pieces gone up there by the looks of things, any pics of the above after they'd finished??
will have to head over there next weekend...
