The much anticipated exhibition of street art / urban art, Outside, opened at 34FineArt in Woodstock last night. We were there to check it out. Painting by AME72.
It was really rad to be able to see the details of work by artists that alot of us having only ever seen on the internet or in print. Mixed media screenprint by Grafter.
Asha Zero. The South African artists really owned the show, holding their own amongst some of the biggest names in the game.
Shepard Fairey / Obey Giant.
Banksy.
Again it was really great to be able to see the work up close and personal.
One of the highlights of the show is this painting by South African artist Ello. With the majority of the international working consisting of screenprints, it was really rad seeing original work.
Faith 47 pushing boundaries.
This is a painting that has to be seen in person. Truly amazing.
