Skywriting: SABER tags LA skies

Photo from  BOMIT NINJAS . Using several planes, Saber wrote OBEY on LA skies noontime of the 19th of September, 2011. Other than that he also wrote names of other known fellow writers such as: Photo from Arrested Motion MSK by SABER from LA TACO on Vimeo . The crux of Saber's skywriting is not to mount an incredible stunt to keep heads in awe of skytagging action but to protest the Mural Moratorium in LA. According to La Taco , "t he city spends more than $10,000,000+ on graffiti abatement programs, but none on mural programs that divert young artist to legal walls to display their art." It has also shown priority for advertisements which flood the city's landscape rather than artistic murals.  What if the city fails to look up? Let's hope they do lest their city's artists go on exodus en masse to other places with more free walls. Photo from Arrested Motion

Valenzuela Streets: Rise of Gori

Two months ago, Gori pasted his first paper gorilla on a Malabon wall right along a Barrios piece . Gori had been doing graffiti for a time in Valenzuela with ARK. A week ago, he pasted his follow through pieces--two mean-looking gorillas who seem to be rocking it. In Gen T. de Leon In Tamarraw Hills Ext. In Gori's FB, he credits Barrios for accompanying him in his second paste-up session. It's good to know Gori and Barrios are sticking it. It will just be a matter of time when these two actually collaborate on a piece. In the mean time, let's watch Gori help raise the walls of Valenzuela.

Ongoco images via dex fernandez In XOXOXO , Dex Fernandez plays around with images culled from adult magazines, putting a new spin on them by adding layers of mixed media on the repainted images. Thus, he only hints at their original context, turning them into nearly abstract configurations, especially when viewed from a distance.             Fernandez is not afraid to say, “Art is porn, and porn is art,” not drawing a line between what is acceptable and what is taboo. To him, both aim to entertain and satisfy the senses. And he hopes viewers will be as open-minded as he is when they see his latest works. More than just polishing his skills, he also sees himself as a “warrior,” fighting to open viewers’ minds to other types of art, particularly the so-called low brow art, in which the standards of fine art does not
