We haven’t seen a show from the phenomenal New Zealand artist Askew for a while, but this one coming up looks like it’d be worth the wait (and a flight over if we could spare the time!). Askew has to count as one of the most prominent, and in our eyes, influential modern graffiti artists
READ MOREThe problem with long weekends is that when we get back from them, there seems to be an avalanche of last minute news to put up about events! We only just saw this one in time for tonight … Well, we’re not entirely sure as to what the show is about, but we are going
READ MOREWe headed to the Maitreya festival last weekend to support our friends over at Online Clubber. While we were there we had a chance to check out a whole shitload art that was going on.

As always, loving the vibe at Backwoods, and Rekas show was awesome. We particularly loved how he is broadening his style out and we really loved the painted cans (which were actually portraits of
READ MOREWe got to Paradise Hills last night as well for Melbourne’s Burning – fantastic fkn show as always, Josh Lord did a great job of putting it all together, the crowd was rad and the art was superb. Get down and see it if you didn’t get there last night, its on for a bit!
READ MOREMick Rafferty was a busy boy last night, and he also headed over to West Footscray for the Steamscape show at Post Industrial Design!

READ MOREOur man Mick Rafferty, who will be taking over a bunch of our photographic duties, got down to Seasons of Change at Revolver Upstairs last night to check out the work from Sabeth and Frame.
