Banksy Filmed Painting Live For Exclusive Sunday Times Magazine Cover
So everyone has heard about the new Banksy film by now, ‘Exit Through the Gift Shop’, well he did an interview for the English Newspaper Magazine ‘The Sunday Times’ at the end of February 2010. They filmed him paint an exclusive chimp stencil for their cover and featured a pretty interesting interview with the man (done remotely of course…). Have a look…

Exclusive Banksy Exhibition, UK – Original Stencil Art Sold- Sneak Look October 2009…
Exclusive Banksy Exhibition, UK – Original Stencil Art Sold- Sneak Look October 2009…
I was a lucky lad on Monday (big shout to James W for sorting it!) and got the chance to go to a private Banksy exhibition and sale in London at a members-only club deeeeeeeep in the ground.
We weren’t allowed to take photos so apologies for the poor quality of the pics, but it ain’t easy to be subtle with a bloody huge camera phone so I did my best to shoot what I could!
It was great to see the art in the flesh instead of just prints, and there were a couple there I’ve never seen pics of before so that was pretty cool. I’d say it was about as far away from the ethos of graffiti art as it could possibly be, big money and plush surroundings…
As an added bonus there was art from Nick Walker, a friend of Banksy’s I believe. He is known for the men in suits and bowler hats, here is a Nick Walker ‘Vandal’ piece from New York. I actually prefer him to Banksy, bit more colour and less in your face political commenting.
But anyway, here are the pics, I took a note of some of the prices of the originals too in case you’ve ever wondered how much an original Banksy can cost….
5 Banksy Rats - £35,000 ($50,000)
Banksy Grim Reaper Original Print - Stencil Art - This was one of the few prints at the exhibition £11,000 ($17,000)
Banksy Kate Moss Print, one of 20 - about £15,000 ($25,000)
Original Banksy Art - Mona Lisa - Said price was POA, so it's got to be pretty expensive
Original Banksy Stencil Art - Devon Police - Another one priced at 'POA'

Bomb IT Graffiti Documentary – Interview with Jon Reiss – Watch Full Doc Now!
Bomb IT Graffiti Documentary – Interview with Jon Reiss – Watch Full Doc Now!
Graffiti van
Sao Paulo, Brazil Pixacao Tags
‘Bomb IT’ is a new graffiti and urban art documentary from director Jon Reiss, it looks at a broad range of urban art from the likes of Brazil’s Os Gemeos, COPE2 from NY, stencil legend Blek le Rat and a load more legends from all over the world.
World Graffiti Urban Art has an interview with Jon Reiss, the trailers to the movie and the links to watch the ‘BOMB IT’ Graffiti Documentary totally free on Babelgum.com, see below. Really, it’s free and it’s AWESOME!
It’s one of the best graffiti and urban art documentary films we’ve seen, covering exciting graff scenes from as far as South Africa and Brazil. The Brazil coverage is particularly facinating, as they follow pixador artists around Sao Paulo and meet a sewer artist who reveals some pretty heart-breaking scenes.
Pixador graff artist climbs billboard - Sau Paulo, Brazil
The doc is also full of some of the sickest new and old urban art around and even the most hardcore writer will learn something new about the different graffiti scenes around the world.
The full-length documentary, which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and has screened at over 20 other festivals including Full Frame Doc Fest, is available to watch on Babelgum’s Metropolis Channel, which is dedicated to showcasing videos about art, urban culture and trends.
MICKEY - Holland (Amsterdam) Graffiti Art
Named one of Daily Variety’s “Ten Digital Directors To Watch” John Reiss’s BOMB IT tells the story of graffiti through interviews and guerilla footage of graffiti writers in action following the movement as it paints the globe from Paris to Sao Paolo and Los Angeles to Cape Town. Featuring old school legends and current favorites such as Taki 183, Cornbread, Stay High 149, T-Kid, Cope 2, Zephyr, Revs, Os Gemeos, KET, Chino, Shepard Fairey, Revok, and Mear One. This cutting edge documentary tracks down today’s most innovative and pervasive street artists as they battle for control over the urban visual landscape.
Check out the trailers below, and an interview with the director Jon Reiss as he talks to World Graffiti about the making of the documentary.
Bomb It: Trailer – No. 1
Q : so how did you hook up with Cornbread? You agree that he’s the first graff writer?
A: We already had at the time a very good relationship with Pose 2 who in turn introduced us to Cornbread. He is one of the first modern graff writers – Cornbread even refers to a freeway writer who was working in the 50s. But for me graff goes back to the birth of human consciousness.
ICE - South Africa Graffiti
Blek le Rat interview - France Stencil and Paste-Up Art
People have been wanting to write on walls since that had something to write with and on! It will continue until we kill ourselves off. Go to Italy – even though there are a lot of writers there – much of the graff in the streets is either political or amourous. People need to express themselves in public.
Q: How long did it take to make the documentary?
A: Started 5 years ago – Bomb IT took three years but its been 2 years in the distribution. The project is expanding not only with the episodes on Babelgum, but we will eventually cut 4-6 more films from our 400 hours of footage. Bomb IT: Sao Paulo is 1/2 way done. NY and LA are in progress.
Bomb It: Urban Trailer – No. 2
Q: Most interesting/weirdest featured artist?
A: Never going to pick favorites – you should know that – all the others will be hating on me.
Q: The gang world and graff world are intertwined in many people’s minds, can the 2 be separated? Do you think the gang connection made by the general public hurts the urban art scene?
A: The link between gangs and graff is mostly established by the media. Even the NYC Vandal Squad laughs at the concept that writers are in gangs. However there are stronger links between gangs and graff in a couple of cities – like LA where some writers have done some things that help the media in their cause to link the two – unfortunately. Education is the best bet – part of the reason I made Bomb It, so that people could understand and appreciate the many many faces of graff.
Q: What’s your favourite graffiti decade? 70s 80s etc?
A: NOW!
Q: Tell me a bit about you, you always been into graff?
A: Nope. Fell into it – a DJ from my film Better Living Through Circuitry introduced me to Sharp and 2ESAE on a trip to NY. Two things hooked me in those meeting – the intelligence and depth of the culture, and the nocturnal run that 2EASE took me out on.
Q: Whats your opinion of the ‘broken window’ theory, that graff leads ultimately to more crime & urban decay?
A: I think my opinion is reflected in the film. As Tkid says “whose quality of life?”.
Q: What was your favourite part of making a documentary like this?
A: Getting people to appreciate a culture that they used to hate.
Bomb It: Worldwide Trailer – No. 3
Q: it was cool you went to Cape Town, great to see some African writers, not usually featured in docs. Totally different style of writing too, you liked it there?
A: Cape Town is amazing! Love it – really generous people.
Q: Do you find yourself looking around for art when you walk around?
A: All the time. Once you start – you can’t stop.

Thanks very much to Jon for answering my questions, go check out the film, I can’t recommend it enough.

Urban Art By ID-IOM (SHOLTO & HUGO) – London & Isle of Man, UK Urban Art
Urban Art By ID-IOM (SHOLTO & HUGO) – London & Isle of Man, UK Stencil Art And Paste-Ups
I first came across ID-IOM when they were selling their art, they’ve got some pretty sick stencils and graffiti-inspired pieces for sale on there (UK & Worldwide), I wanted to know more so here’s a bit of an interview with them!
WG – Where do you come from and where do/did you write?
ID-IOM – We are brothers (SHOLTO & HUGO) originally from the Isle of Man but now living in South London, UK. We use mainly stencils, paste-ups and artwork drops in our street work which we’ll put up pretty much wherever we like. It’s usually best to find somewhere so the piece has some kind of context or, failing that, somewhere high traffic or even perhaps somewhere you can take your time. It’s particularly fun if you are on your travels. Most of our work is up and around London but when we have the chance to leave we always take a few spraycans and paste ups with us.
Tel Aviv, Israel
Check out these awesome Nonoloa graffiti and urban art tshirts…
WG – So what first got you into graffiti?
ID-IOM – We originally started doing t-shirts for nights out when we were students, then moved on to canvas and eventually out on to the street. I think we used to look around at some of the low grade graf and think either ‘that’s crap’ or ‘i could do better’. Whether or not ours is any better is, of course, open to debate but we generally try and put at least a little thought into what we are doing.
WG – What names do you use when you write?
ID-IOM – ID-IOM or perhaps JIM. It depends on how naughty we are being!!
WG – What graff artists out there do you admire or take influence from?
ID-IOM – There are plenty of people doing solid work. I’m interested in all forms of street art whether it be sculpture, graf, stencils, wheatpaste, etc. Graffiti Research Labs do some interesting work and Conor Harrington is very talented too.
Amy Winehouse favourite quote
WG – How long have you been doing your stencil art?
ID-IOM – As i said before we started doing t-shirt designs about 5 years ago and have just progressed from there. It’s taken a bit of time but neither of us are trained in any form of art.
WG – What influences your artwork?
ID-IOM – Music, pop culture, things you hear on the bus, books. We get our influences from pretty much anywhere and everywhere, it just depends if we can think of something to do with what we’ve come across.
WG – From looking at your website, you’re both pretty ambitious – what’s the ultimate goal?
ID-IOM – It would be nice to take over the world, or die trying.
WG – What do you think of the urban art scene at the moment?
ID-IOM – I think its lost some of it’s sparkle but there is still a lot of good stuff out there, you just have to look a little harder to find the real gems. I’m definitely down with the more experimental stuff, the mixing of mediums and the like but if it’s a good idea it doesn’t matter how its produced I suppose.
WG – What are your favourite type of trainers?
SHOLTO – I’ve got a bad-ass pair of customised black Nike Air Force One’s that are pretty sweet.
HUGO - I really like just plain white trainers, my favourite at the minute are a pair of Puma El Ray.
Cheers very much to the guys for taking the time to chat, you can see ID-IOM’s work for sale on Ebay, or check out their website, got some goodness on there. They also have a Flickr which is packed to the nuts with their paste-ups, stencil art and studio work too…

Brighton graffiti, Lesbos Street Art and Reading Bathroom Tagging
Got a bit of a mix of stuff today… The Brighton graffiti scene has always been pretty lively, and the good man Pete N has sent over some stunning graffiti photos from his collection to feature. So here they are.
There are also a couple of great bits of street art from the island of Lesbos (awesome portraits!), Greece, a video game stencil piece from Lille, France (space invaders? correct me if I’m wrong) and some toilet tags from Reading which made me laugh.

Scratchadelia – Hip Hop Inspired Urban Art from Marseille/Paris/London
Scratchadelia – Hip Hop Inspired Urban Art
Got an bit of an interview with Scratchadelia today! Their urban art has a wicked hip hop flavour and a pretty unique look, with lighting being an integral part of the art.
They’re a confident pair too, good on ‘em.
Kid Koala Eating Vinyl
Scratchadelia have got a solo show on at THE DALSTON SUPERSTORE until August 2nd 2009, get down there while you can!
Let’s get to it then…
WG – How many of you are there, just you or are you a group? Where are you based?
Scratchadelia – We ain’t a crew or collective. We are 2, my brother Kass (Paris) and me (London) – originally from Marseille, but soon it’s gonna be a movement like graffiti…
Grand Master Flash
WG – Have you been doing this style of art for long?
Scratchadelia – Since mid-90’s on Buses, Trains, Streets and 2003 on the wallpaper.
WG – How did you start getting into this style of art?
Scratchadelia – At school, on the wood desk.
Actually maybe earlier, u know when u are a kid u scratch everything u can and I remember that when I was about 3/5 years old, I scratched my gran mother’s table with the fork… She was so p*ssed off !!! She never gave me back a fork and/or a knife, only spoon. True story 
Don't Think n Keep Walkin
WG – Are there any artists out there at the moment that inspire you or that you enjoy?
Scratchadelia – The inspiration for the WE SCRATCH THE DALSTON SUPERSTORE SHOW
Jasper Goodall (Tigress, Bad Bambi), @tmccool ( unknown artist from Twitter) for the Money Lisa.
But right now, not really… it’s quite boring, everybody do the same stuff…
Everybody wants to be an artist nowdays…
Check out these awesome Nonoloa graffiti and urban art tshirts…
Don't Make Them Arrest U
WG – What are your main influences when choosing subjects to do pieces on?
Scratchadelia – We don’t really have a main influence, everything is inspiration for us.
For an exhibition: the venue, the people, we try to create an energy there.
For us: our thoughts, fantasies, what we want to touch, we play with the repetition of common/daily pictures/photos you see in magazines/advertisement/TV/movies/Life
DJ Qbert
WG – What music you into at the moment?
Scratchadelia – Hip Hop 4 ever
WG – How long does it take to do a piece usually?
Scratchadelia – Depends what we scratch (letters/word, portrait, scene,…) and how big it is.
WG – What sort of materials/equipment do you use?
Scratchadelia – JOKER (WG – Not giving anything away then!)
Who's Bad?- aka Bad Bambi Jasper Goodall - 2009
Short and sweet. They’re all over the place online, you can join their Facebook group and see their latest art (more to come soon) – SCRATCHADELIA Fan page.
Find them on MySpace (Sick Deltron tune on there too…) or on Twitter – @scratchadelia.
Cheers to Scratchadelia for taking the time out to talk!

Banksy art has become synonymous with graffiti over the past few years after a number of high profile sales to celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
As with anything, there has been a backlash against Banksy as he becomes more mainstream and well-known (actually, loads of graff writers never liked him), but there’s no denying his art and popularity has had a positive effect on how urban art is seen by the public.
Check out these new Banksy stencil art pieces in Mali, Africa.
