Last week I had the amazing opportunity to meet Roadsworth and Phil Allard and have a chat with them. They were invited by Pop Up to build a piece in Lisboa, and myself being a great admirer of the work from Roadsworth, I was pleased to know he was in town. Sadly things didn’t work out too well, for the place they had to do their piece had been cancelled by the city council at the last minute. Hopefully not all was lost, since they still managed to do a piece just before catching their plain plane. Hope they find their way back to Lisboa. Summer time is always nice…

Adres has just released another piece on the streets, relative to the General Strike that will take place on November 24th.

Just got this in the mail. It kind of reminds me something, I just don’t know what…

A car park in Cais do Sodré, Lisboa has just suffered a little modification during the night. Yesterday morning, a car park official gave notice that all the spots were marked for handicap people, making it a handicap exclusive park. Confused, she called EMEL to confirm if these had been done by them…

Vhils is involved in NuArt 10, one of the greatest street art festivals to happen this year, with artists like Dolk, JR, M-City, EVOL, ROA, Blu & Ericailcaine and many more. Check his latest works inside, and the NuArt page for more amazing pieces by all the other artists.
UPDATE: NuArt posted some more info on this piece.

Ship & Smile exhibition blogged here ended up last week, but before it finished Miss K made it to the closing party in Leiria and as always, ended up taking her machine and snapping some shots. I love the phrase that goes on the window, as some people might actually mistaken it for a photo. Towards the ending, a debate on the state of graffiti and street art was taken following the subject from the book by Ricardo Campos, “Porque pintamos a cidade” (Why we paint the city).

And already inside, some of the walls have been painted for the latest show from Skran, Ayer, Hesp, Frame01, Erom, Pluz, Keims, Smile & ON. Unable to attend the first days, Skran dropped me some flicks of the walls and what they’ve been up to. Check inside. Also in the outside walls, there’s some old Vhils, Mar and DirtyCop pieces that I’ve never left here, but that’s for another day.

Our Portuguese artist Vhils has left his mark in San Diego. He’s done new pieces for the Museum of Contemporary Art of San Diego exhibition “Viva La Revolucion”, alongside other big names like Swoon, Gémeos, Faile and many others.

Clearly inspired by Banksy, this stencil just showed up near the Sta Apolónia station in Lisboa.
Artist unknown.

Adres just left a new piece out on the highway. Pic inside and location.
