Our man Charlie loves Brazil and for two years running has been fortunate enough to hang out with some amazing artists at Meeting of the Favelas. Check out the film he put together for us…
Really nice video by Cept…

What a great event this year… The Moniker Art Fair 2012 not only was the venue for the VNA issue 20 launch party, but also a very impressive art fair featuring the likes of Ludo, Remi Rough, Hush, Pam Glew and many more. Check out the following video shot by Boxfresh for a little recap….
I got the heads up on this new artsist VERMIBUS by Frankie from Moniker Projects and although the images end up pretty creepy, the effect of manipulating the ink is amazing…

Austrian graffiti writer Nychos passed through London last month and even with loads of rain, overzealous council workers buffing a piece on a private wall (within hours of it being finished) and several days dealing with a mysterious illness, he managed to paint some amazing murals. Our guys João Retorta and Luke Atkinson were there to capture him in action. Check the video below…

A big thanks to Montana Gold for the paint hookup, Dscreet for the wall and the rest of you who helped make it happen.

This is a really nice video from the guys at LRG featuring the Australian duo Dabs & Myla. Really nice to see how these two work together as artists whilst staying a strong couple…
Australian duo Dabs & Myla are a true artistic representation that you “get back what you put in.” Having been partners both in art and romance for over 7 years, their inventive and daring approach is a byproduct of both their adopted home of Los Angeles as well as their unique collaborative ability that is unmatched in the competitive art world. Never afraid to give priority to individual works rather than an individual’s feelings, the result is always something that Dabs & Myla can both be proud of. It would be wise to heed their words: “the harder you work, the luckier you get.”
Yeah! Love this promo video from Vinnie Nylon (Featured in issue 8 ) Check it out and be sure to go check out his show at High Roller Society in a couple of weeks…

Welcome to Poptimism, the first solo show in London by Vinnie Nylon.
Vinnie Nylon has been involved in the street art and graffiti movement for over 25 years, producing walls, print, paintings, graphics and billboards for a variety of small and international companies and commissioners.
This all new body of work is born out of a lifelong collecting obsession, a visual playground in which all of the collected toys and mascots meet head on, a collision designed to level the fields of high and low art. Where old meets new and ultra cute takes on a slightly sinister undertone.
Since the mid 90s Vinnie Nylon has been placing an army of candy coloured characters and advertising mascots onto canvas and walls. A new spin on old favourites, a savage twist on others, all harking back to a simpler post war era when the distinction between childhood and adulthood was so much clearer.
Lost icons that are no longer employed to distract us from the austerity of mid century Britain and America take on their new guise to reclaim their rightful place in a new visual universe.
Television as smokescreen, popular as social acceptance, reality sugar coated with a big goofy smile slapped on it. Poptimism reintroduces, reevaluates and explores the themes of seduction by ad media, sentimental attachment and mass production.
The works on show include vintage petrol cans, sticker art, fanzine and screen print as well as a number of new paintings and mixed media pieces. Trademark bright colours and thick impasto sit beside the more demure offerings of hand finished print and collage pieces.
The frame is the door that leads into a world of visual pop delights and plastic fantastic high low art for all to enjoy, so step inside and keep it pop, never stop playing.
