Preview: “DUBL TRUBL” Street Art Show at Urban Spree Gallery

Urban Spree Gallery in Berlin is now making preparations for their huge street art show opening September 18th, “DUBL TRUBL”. Curated by artist Dscreet, the exhibition will boast 80 names you might be familiar with- Miss Van & Ciro, Ghostpatrol & Merda, Lush & Dscreet, Tizer & Ebot, Anthony Lister, Dabs and Myla, Pure Evil, and many more. The project is aptly named in anticipation of ‘doubling up’ artists who will be collaborating in addition to showing new work. We previously reviewed Miss Van and Ciro’s collaborative work last September, making this an anniversary of sorts. The artists in this show are paired because of their clashing styles, rather than similarities, celebrating the spontaneity and improvisation that comes with collaboration. It’s always fun when artists who don't normally work together join efforts.

It’s always fun when artists who don’t normally work together join efforts. Despite Urban Spree’s impressive art compound, as we’ve just seen with Pow! Wow! Taiwan (covered here and here), the colliding worlds of street art are infectious. Perhaps Germany will enjoy the exciting bonus of unplanned results.

Dalek’s Latest Series of Colorful Geometric Paintings

First featured in Hi-Fructose Vol. 15, North Carolina based artist James Marshall aka Dalek was exposed to punk rock, skateboarding and painting graffiti early on. His earlier works feature abstract illustrations of characters, strongly influenced by his time as an assistant to Japanese Pop artist Takashi Murakami, and over the years, have progressed into more geometrical works. Dalek has always liked things that are "super flat" and graphic, and he approaches his art with a mathematical sensibility. His paintings today feature geometric shapes that seem to morph when viewed from different angle.

Rustam QBic’s Storybook-Like Murals Feature Cryptic Imagery

A prominent player in Russia's burgeoning street art scene, Rustam QBic paints enormous walls that feature colorful, illustration-inspired imagery that stands out against the bright snow. The artist recently painted a mural called "Blossom" in Nizhny Novgorod for New City, the metropolis's first street art festival. "Blossom" alludes to the power of the imagination. As they hunch over their books, three boys' heads bloom into pink peonies. QBic's storybook-like murals often feature youthful characters navigating their surreal settings, where mundane objects often transform into dreamlike amalgamations of symbols. Take a look at some of QBic's latest murals below.

Dan Ferrer’s Medium-Spanning Madness

Dan Ferrer, also known by the moniker Freeuno, is a street artist/illustrator based in Madrid, Spain, where his works populate both enormous public walls and traditional canvases. His works often combine the subversively abstract with the strikingly real, whether rendered with oils, spray paint, or a Wacom pencil.

On View: “Carbon” New Works by Li-Hill at Cave Gallery

The work of Brooklyn based artist Li-Hill can be compared to a thunderstorm of images which dissipate into surrounding blank space. Like the element of "Carbon", the title of his series currently on view at C.A.V.E. Gallery, Li-Hill's illustrations break into tiny pieces that makeup a whole. The show is named after its inspiration. He chose to portray animals which are directly threatened by climate change due to carbon emissions. Jaguars, caribou, grizzly bears, wolves, and vultures are just a few represented in fleeting monochromatic graphite drawings smeared with aerosol, a carbon-concentrated material.
