Turning the Page – قلبة الصفحة – in Beirut, Lebanon with Spaz, Kabrit and Exist Street Art

Image
To turn the page is to progress. It is often difficult, though, to turn a page. Each page  — as is each new day — is a fresh start that holds uncertainties. Eventually, the page must turn, no matter how long we take to reflect on it. And in Beirut, a city plagued by tragedy, poverty, economic crisis and corruption, we’ve learned how to turn the page and move forward. The work pictured here, Turning the Page – قلبة الصفحة – is how three artists — Spaz , Kabrit and Exist — are moving forward in collaboration with the nonprofit organization Beitelbaraka to renovate Geitewe, a neighborhood that had been devastated by Beirut’s 2020 massive explosion.

EL MUELLE: THE MADRID GRAFFITI LEGEND

Image
Montana Colors is proud to present a Limited Edition aerosol dedicated to the legendary icon of graffiti in Madrid: El Muelle . Considered to be a pioneer of graffiti in Spain, his charismatic personality, massive influence and his untimely death have made him much more than a story: he is a symbol of alternative culture in the Spanish capital and a trailblazer of one of the most important graffiti scenes in Europe. To celebrate this very special launch, we’ve produced a short documentary about Muelle's work and legacy, from his emergence to his most emblematic work. The video helps to explain the influence that he had on graffiti and on society in Madrid, from the first writers known as “flecheros” to the institutions that have since paid tribute to his work.   The video is made up of exclusive interviews with some of Muelle's relatives as well as other authorities on his work including Art Restorer Elena Gallo, pioneering graffiti artist Remebe and active writer Buny K

German Street Artist LAPIZ Makes a Statement on Russia’s Putin, Digital Escapism & the Female Body

Image
German street artist LAPIZ recently unveiled a nearly 10-foot tall, brightly-colored rendition of Russia’s President Vladimir Putin kissing himself on a prized wall in Munich’s Werksviertel , a vibrant urban conglomerate of modern and historical commercial, residential and cultural sites. The mural is a recreation of a piece first constructed in 2018, where it was featured in a festival in Lemwerder. During that time, the FIFA World Cup was being held in Russia, and the mural aimed to highlight Putin’s narcissism and homophobia. Four years later, the motive rings truer than ever. Planet B detail “When I pitched the idea to Loomit [a pioneer of the Munich street art scene, Loomit is regarded as the godfather of graffiti in Germany and has been based out of the Werksviertel-Mitte area since 1996] , he immediately understood that it needed to be regenerated,” said LAPIZ. “And just like that, he gave away part of his most prized wall in Werksviertel, which featured a piece he painted
