The Temple Bar traders association has created a project where all the traffic signal boxes will be covered with work from various artists. According to this clip on RTE it’s all thanks to people tagging the boxes. So if it wasn’t for graffiti the boxes would still look dull and grey. Most of the art work is shit so I’d love to see the entries that didn’t make the grade. Read more from the traders association here.
Candy Collective got 70 creatives (who the fuck came up with that term) to do cover versions of their favourite album covers.
Here’s a few done by Risto, Jor and Mase.
ESG - South Bronx Story
E.S.T. - Seven Days Of Falling
Maser?
Nice to see the likes of EINE and CEPT will be visiting our shores next week, for the Stella Dore exhibiton which is doing the rounds. Hopefully they’ll escape the trendy hangers-on and do a spot of painting while they’re over.

Such a concentration of artfags for one small area…
Spotted this stencil by Banksy in a small little seaside town in Sligo. No, wait, it’s just some douche bag ripping him off. He even goes as far as to copy the banksy logo to sign his own piece. Prick.
