Wynwood Walls 2010

In the last few years, the Wynwood area of Miami has gone from a desolate no-mans land to a thriving arts hub littered with dozens of local galleries and some of the best street art in the country. At the heart of this cultural explosion lies the Wynwood Walls.

Originally created in conjunction with New York powerhouse gallery Deitch Projects and real estate developer Goldman Properties, the Wynwood Walls now boast a Shepard Fairey designed restaurant, pop up gallery space (see our post on LeVine's Urban Alchemists show from yesterday), and of course, buckets of street art. This year Ron English, Jeff Soto, Ryan McGinness and Logan Hicks (amongst many more) blessed the open air space with new murals while Kenny Scharf brought down his infamous customized Airstream trailer. Get a look at many of the new additions that took place this year, here on Hi-Fructose.

Gil Bruvel’s work seems to be both modern and craft movement inspired at the same time. They are made of hundreds of parts; intricate, yet, when those parts are viewed from a distance, are smooth and cohesive. We’ve asked the artist to delve into his process and themes and a bit of his background as an artist. Click the image above to read our Hi-Fructose exclusive with the artist

(Above: Drone photo by stephan pruitt/fiasco media) We are living in even stranger times. While fires are ravaging Los Angeles on the west coast of the United States, affecting many of our friends and collaborators, the scores of artists in Asheville affected by Hurricane Helene in December are still reeling from the loss of their homes and studios. To provide support, Bender Gallery has organized an art show with their local artists to support the River Arts District. Click above to read all about it and see a few works on display.
