Super Super Monday!
Back in London again after OFFF and straight to the Serpentine Gallery for the private view of Paul Chans 7 Lights Expo. Very dissapointed, NO FREE BOOZE! But very nice snacks for free tho ( had to pass those as I had a crappy sandwich beforehand and felt a bit sick, DAMN!). Anyway, bought the latest issue of SuperSuperMag in the Gallery shop, had a lot of drinks at Mother Bar and I just feel that I have to spread the word now about this insanity of a magazine! New Nu Rave bollocks whateva, it's Smash Hits on speed, hurts your eyes and has a tranny to give you style advice. Thumbs up from my side! I especially like the price: 2.99£! Eat that I-D!!!!
( P.S: Oh, and the apple juice dj dude is on the cover, damn I have just such a 6th sense about the stars of tommorrow! look and scroll down a bit! )

JAPANESE GRAFFITI Expo at Stolenspace
Fresh from my inbox...
RACKGAKI
JAPANESE GRAFFITI
By Suridh Hassan and Ryo Sanada
EXHIBITION: 10TH MAY - 20TH MAY
The first dedicated to Japan's explosive graffiti scene, this book
illustrates the work of the major graffiti artists—or "writers"—working
in Japan today. RackGaki showcases the creativity that lies within this
new and relatively unexplored form of contemporary Japanese art.
Interviews with the "writers" and the authors' own experiences in
documenting the different aspects of this subculture, fill out a
picture of an art form at the cutting edge and often at odds with
police and civic authorities.
The exhibition accompanies the publication of the first book
on Japanese graffiti, RackGaki, by Ryo Sanda and Suridh Hassan. This is
the first book devoted to the Japanese scene. The exhibition will also
feature work by other artists in the book and a screening of the
accompanying DVD. Japan’s two leading Graffiti artists’ KRESS and ESOW
are flying over from Tokyo to create a piece which will form the
centrepiece of the Exhibition. In addition to the graffiti piece, there
will be canvases, books, limited addition screen prints and books for
sale at the exhibition.

Barcelona PT.1
This city rocks and thanks to the great people I am staying with wasn´t I wasting my time with spanish culture or sunbathing: I got dragged straight into the style nerd shops of the mighty B! First stop: Chikashitsu. Sounds japanese and looks japanese. Stocking the likes of Futura Labs, Surrender, Original Fake, W)Taps and Neighbourhood. All black, minimal and serious this place revealed a pair of tasty black and white dunks to me, hmm.
Next stop across the street: Limited Edition. Looks like the spanish version of Size? and has a fucking dope set of Nike AF1 Ad figures. Didn´t see those before... damn SWEET!!!
And I was wondering why this cat was in any other shoeshop on my way through the maze of sidestreets. Hint: It´s the shoes!
There are good stencils and bad stencils. This is a good one...
