admin — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 14:15:01 +0000

Stick ‘Em Up! is an alluring and captivating film that delves into the little known world of wheat pasting, an inner city art form that’s as provocative as it is misunderstood. Documentary filmmaker Alex ‘PR!MO’ Luster delves into the minds and motivations behind several guerilla street artists capturing the lifespan of their art… conception, creation, placement and ultimately the removal by the city abatement enforcement.
With commentary by legendary street artists and from top local law enforcement officials, “Stick ’Em Up!” is a gritty, street smart documentary that reveals the secret truth behind some of the prolific images you see everyday.

Graffiti artists GONZO247 and MERGE360 began to document on video what they were doing both legally and illegally. They established a pen pal system with graffiti artists in other cities, exchanging videos of their work. They then compiled these videos from all over the world under the name Aerosol Warfare to create a video magazine covering all aspects of emerging hip-hop culture; centered on graffiti, the magazine is now sold worldwide…. read the entire entry on Wikipedia

If you think graffiti is vandalism but not art, Aerosol Warfare Gallery and CKC StArt Street and Urban Arts just might change your mind. If you’re an artist trying to make the transition, as their websites put it, from train boxcars to art galleries, these East Downtown institutions just might be your new home.
