Processing vs Print

Processing work is so beautiful and impressive, more with the right colors, interesting usage of shapes and very important, huge print format display. German artist Eno Hanze has showed that processing is not just for animation. He is translating his analogue experiences in digital work through VVVV. Enjoy!

The piece above called Der Wirklichkeitsschaum was programmed using VVVV, final size of 33 X 11.5 feet and was built using 288 A3 prints.

Adidas: The Left Right Project

To celebrate and pay tribute to the iconic Superstar, adidas Originals produced a pair of giant, SUV-size exact replicas, down to the fire-hose shoe laces. Housed in separate studios, we invited friends and artists at Surface2Air (NYC) and Upper Playground (San Francisco) to celebrate their own originality by customizing these huge sneakers – the right shoe for the East Coast and the left shoe for the West Coast. For three days, the artists’ collectives (Surface2Air featuring Gordon Hull, Daniel Jackson and Alexia Stamatiou and Upper Playground featuring Sam Flores) went to work. Upon completion, the shoes were put on a flat bed truck and the two parties set off to meet in Venice Beach, CA. The showdown on the boardwalk drew L.A.’s finest “originals.”

Sosaku Miyazaki

Sosaku Miyazaki

This is a sneak preview of the new works by this talented japanese artist. He is one of my favourite artists and it is no secret.

"From the restless mind of the creative, to the surprise that every page that this book offers , there is only one step, the combination between Sosaku's mind and one pencil, one spray, one photographic camera or one paintbrush."

You can get a hold on a selection of his talent buying his monograph book entitled "Dirty Color Stereo Cooking Video Tape Dance Party" at ROJO® shop or if you are more of an art collector, you will soon be able to check his originals out in a solo exhibition next September in Barcelona.

More news soon... promised.
