DR. RAT AMSTERDAM 1981

This article was posted by Bates 3 days, 50 minutes ago.

Dr. Rat (real name Ivar Vics) was a well known dutch graffiti-artist, and started to be an almost mythical figure when he died at the early age of 21 years old. His work can be considered as groundbreaking in the European graffitiscene, working in a provo- and punkcontext, focusing heavily on themes like mortality and pop-iconism. This is a registration of him painting in a alley next to the famous Kalverstraat, also known as the Pissteeg (‘Pissalley’) made by ‘pirate-tv’-makers PKP TV.
Dr. Rat’s life has been documented in the dutch graffiti-documentary ‘Kroonjuwelen’, and in Martijn Haas’ biography: ‘Dr. Rat, Grondlegger van de Nederlandse graffiti’ (Lebowski Publishers - 2011).

DIVINE BEAUTY

This article was posted by Bates 4 days, 2 hours, 32 minutes ago.

DesignWars Team is proud to present its second project in series, the “Divine Beauty”. The artist “Insane51” suddenly is waked up by an odd dream, finding himself clueless and literally landed on a deserted place. Covered by lots of useless stuff and scrap papers, he gets up finding near him some spray cans, but also a unique item, a draft drawing. Instantly the power within rises, ordering him to represent it immediately. Picking up the first spray can, Insane51 is teleported to a journey that we invite you to watch.

“Insane51” is a young grafitti artist, born in Athens in 1992. Beginning in his childhood he showed great interest in art and installations. As a teenager Insane51 traveled around the city to discover the fascination of the imposing walls of massive structures. His first mural was achieved in 2006, while his works are based on portraits using experimental techniques and colors. A student of Fine Arts nowadays, Insane51 specializes in photorealism and character creation on empty walls. Despite the young of his age, Insane51 posseses such great talent, that will probably drive you insane through his works!

Works that serve the cause and the philosophy of DESIGNWARS:

Spreading the Inspiration and the Expression through Art.

WCA “ALL THE WAY TO HEAVEN”

This article was posted by Bates 5 days, 11 hours, 57 minutes ago.

Bates member of Wca,
Wisk and Ser - “All the Way to Heaven”
Tells the story:

Shot,Directed and Composed by:General Moe
Edited by:Tommy Canales Burns

I Shot and Directed this 22 minute Mini-Documentary on Wisk and Ser of the legendary crew West Coast Artists. In this day and age of the Los Angeles graffiti art culture i think it is very necessary for today’s writers and artists to have an understanding of what actually took place in the “streets” during the golden era, so i interviewed two of the golden era’s well respected, innovative writers that were determined to be successful with taking street bombing to a higher level in the 1980’s and early 90’s.

It literally took eleven hour day and night sessions with my editor to bring this classic story and vision to light. During the course of my filming missions around Los Angeles it didn’t always go as smooth as it may look on this video, many times i was stopped and questioned by L.A.P.D officers and Security Guards due to certain locations i dared to go into, it consisted of going to very grimy areas in the city in the AM all alone, hanging over many dangerous freeway overpasses, just determined to get that one shot that i considered dam near perfect, plus almost dropping my cellular phone while on one of the 110 freeway overpasses in the process of getting certain shots! Enjoy it because i put alot into composing this piece, its for the Los Angeles “street legends” of the graffiti art culture and for the one’s who wants to know more about it.
