Invader Will Bring His Signature Street-Art Mosaics to NYC, by South Bound on Nov 20, 2015 15:03:34 GMT 1, http://instagr.am/p/-SjRyGIMCO Anyone know if he just walked by the studio or if he really made an appearance? Edit: Apparently he did, looking for footage right now.. he was on air and places an invader on the set and then ran off. I caught it half way through so not sure if he did anything else. I am sure the video will be posted later today.

Edit: Apparently he did, looking for footage right now.. I still can't find. Might be best to find someone with the cbs streaming app or OnDemand and have them dvr it. He is in the show open.

Invader Will Bring His Signature Street-Art Mosaics to NYC, by tone on Nov 27, 2015 22:27:32 GMT 1, To answer your questionโ in 2015, I think it does (for street artists and festivals). Festivals do give a wide range of people the chance to discover new artists (see Dismaland). But for individual street artists, the tacticts employed today would have been considered anti--anti-culture ten+ years ago when the attention to the scene was more fanboy than mainstream. IMO: If Invader can enhance his ability to pull off larger scale invasions, more people will discover his pixelated talents, thus further appreciation for his body of work and the scene in general? Yes, it could be construed as the street art version of 'selling out' to do interviews with the NY Times and getting pre-approval from building owners to pull off his goals, but i'm sure, just as Shepard Fairey did some illegal walls while putting up commissioned walls for Library Street Collective in Detroit, Invader will still make his mark in only the sneaky and clever ways he knows how. I completely get the point of view, and how it would apply, to take your own example, to Shep. Some stuff he does illegally, other is comissioned and that is probably fine. But Invader's artistic process is an Invasion, which by definition is uninvited. You don't send a fax asking for permission to Invade... I may appear to be slashing Invader, but I actually really admire and respect him, and this will not change my general appreciation of him as an artist. But the fact remains that for the sake of aesthetics and safety he has, in my eyes, compromised the integrity of his process.. Maybe this one should be called "Invader decorates New York" instead of "Invades" ? I disagree, he's probably looking for consent so his art actually stays up longer then two weeks. Whole point of an invasion "grab the map find the pieces and have fun". I feel a lot of people forget about that.

Invader Will Bring His Signature Street-Art Mosaics to NYC, by Happy Shopper on Dec 2, 2015 13:25:42 GMT 1, He was bound to get arrested... although I thought a lot of the pieces looked like they were probably legal. I'm surprised he's allowed into the U.S. Maybe he won't be anymore!

Invader Will Bring His Signature Street-Art Mosaics to NYC, by cyberkid on Dec 11, 2015 22:04:13 GMT 1, NYC 2015 / 6th wave of Invasion in New York City
42 new pieces have just appeared in the Big Apple. This is the most accomplished Invasion ever undertaken in this city, with some space invaders mosaics but also tributes to great icons of NYC like Andy Warhol, Lou Reed, Woody Allen, the Ramones, Revs & Cost, Spider man or the Ninja Turtles !
