And then, not to far away from the Lazarides Greek St show, was the Faile “A Decade of Faile” exhibition. The first time I had been here was for the Vhils premiere back in July last year, and it was amazing. And now, for someone who had only seen all of these works via internet, it was astonishing to find so many great pieces in one house.
Again, great job from Faile and Lazarides.

After circulating the street up and down, as I hadn’t took the number with me, I was finding hard to believe I was in the right street, but that I couldn’t find the gallery itself. So I started asking the nearby workers. The first had no idea what I was talking about, so I decided the next door would be easier, as it was arts related. End up, they had no idea what I was talking about either, and themselves were in the art business. Last option, roam the street up again, and that’s when I catch a door shutter being raised, and realize it was a bit soon for the opening time. Can you believe that I was 2 doors away from the gallery and no one knew where it was? Anyway, all I have to say is that from all the exhibitions I had been to, Lazarides was by far the best with its exhibition from Faile and Bast.

“Sweet Cuts” is the new Add Fuel To The Fire show @ Waves & Woods this Saturday 13th. This is a first hand news, so be sure to show up and support national artists.
It’s not even gonna rain this saturday, so there’s no excuse. Details inside.

Stolen Space was the hardest one to find. I had been for minutes circulating the streets without finding it out. When I finally found it, I was happy to discover a couple of Kid Acne paste-ups in the next door, since he’s one of my favorite artists for a long time. Anyway, Stolen Space was hosting the “Original Cultures”, a show composed by Erica Il Caine, DEM and Will Barras.

Signal Gallery is hosting Case’s newest show “Never Odd or Even”, and was almost closing time when I just got there. Still, there was plenty of time for some quick shots, as the gallery itself isn’t that big. Case is a member of the Ma’Claim crew, world known from their photo-realistic graffiti works, and who’s members have also been here in Lisboa for one of the VSP editions.

Pure Evil gallery was a total surprise. I had no idea what I was about to see (rather than Pure Evils works), but instead I found a house adapted to a gallery showroom, a studio and a music rehearsal bunker down stairs. The amount of artworks found in the rooms, stairs and halls from so many different artists blew my mind. Eine, Sten, C215, ROA… wow!
This was a pleasant surprise, right before heading on the way to the Eelus show next door.

Pictures On Walls is a gallery/shop located in Shoreditch, London. If you’re a streetart enthusiast like me, then this has to be one of the best places to find all sorts of artworks from your favourite artists. Just name it, and most likely they’ll have it. I flipped through the prints on sale, and was appalled to how many of those I’d love to have in my home. And to top it all, at the moment that I talked to someone from the shop, they were just sending out a package to a fellow/friend artist from Portugal. Small world indeed, eheh.
Just enjoy some pics from the enormous (in goods) Pictures On Walls. I’ll be back…

This is currently not news anymore since it’s out for more than a week, but I just couldn’t let this one go by. Loved the way this project came out.

Every once in a while, I have to give credit to the guys who inspire me, and Dj Ride is without a doubt one of the strongest artists to bring Portuguese sounds to a new level.
I currently leave his albums on repeat, because I just can’t have enough of his music.
The 4 times National Turntablism/Scratch Dj Champ, is here with a new site and a new album “Psychedelic Sound Waves”.
