INDOOR MURAL PROJECT @ 941 Geary

A few weeks ago I painted a 12 x 8 foot mural at 941 Geary along with a bunch of other amazing artists including Damon Soule, Skinner, Chor Boogie, Hush, Blek Le Rat and more. The closing party for the show is this Saturday, April 23rd. Check out some in progress shots of my piece below along with the press release.

The Indoor Mural Project: A Living Survey of Street Art Opening Party – Saturday, April 23rd, 6-9pm

White Walls and Montana Colors are proud to present The Indoor Mural Project: A Living Survey of Street Art, a series of works by both local and international street artists. Since March 1st, 941 Geary has been playing host to a series of site-specific works by an impressive lineup of graffiti and street artists in the heart of San Francisco. The Indoor Mural Project is a living, multi-layered exhibition where street art enthusiasts are invited to observe the progression and transformation of a contemporary gallery space by some of the most exciting artists working today.

During the exhibition, 941 Geary has operated as a 3,000-square-foot blank canvas for the selected artists to use as a starting point to build, collaborate and riff off of each other’s work organically. The Indoor Mural Project aims to energize the clean, formal space of the gallery with an infusion of movement, action, reaction and a generous amount of spray paint fumes (courtesy of Montana Colors). Championing the movement for the last six years, Justin Giarla has been working tirelessly to foster a strong community of artists, spectators, collectors, writers and curators actively engaged in the ongoing dialogue of graffiti and street art. The Indoor Mural Project serves as a tribute to both the artists and the community that has developed around their work. This one day show features an opening party, this Saturday, April 23rd from 6-9pm! We’re excited to invite you to come see the metamorphosis of 941Geary!





ART IN THE STREETS: LA TRIP

So this past Thursday, I headed down to LA for the ART IN THE STREETS artist reception at MOCA. Words cannot describe how amazing this show is. If you are in LA at any point before the end of August, I highly suggest you check it out. Big props to Jefferey Deitch, Roger Gastman and Aaron Rose for making it happen. History in the making.
