Wow...this is an awesome piece. Legit.

‘The Last Fiesta’ is my 12-skateboard deck shout-out to Leonardo da Vinci’s ‘The Last Supper’ with Jesus Christos and his 12 Luchador apostles getting down one last time.

Defining what is now the new southern California mainstream...

Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Mister Cartoon (born Mark Machado) has become famous over the years for his many designs that range from sign painting and graffiti, to automobile murals and magazine illustrations. A master of the ink and needle, his client list includes a wide variety of celebrities like Dr. Dre, Travis Barker, 50 Cent, Eminem, Justin Timberlake and Beyonce. For its “Art in the Streets” exhibition, the MOCA has chosen to display several pieces that are comprehensive of his work like a tagged hood and an airbrushed ice cream truck.

Chegou a vez de São Paulo receber a exibição Transfer, que em 2008 fez barulho em Porto Alegre com a primeira expressiva mostra de skate-arte brasileira e uma escultura skatável. Essa exposição ecoou pelo Brasil e vários países, com boas críticas.

São Paulo is hosting the 'Transfer' skate art show right now. This follows on the success of an exhibition held in Porto Alegre back in 2008. It was the first show to document skate art influence in Brazil, receiving international attention.

I visited Brazil earlier this decade and a lasting impression were the artists involved in the artes-plastica-plastic arts scene. Curious to know and see how this discipline plays out in the 'Transfer' exhibition. Be worth another viaje ao Brasil!
