A lot of excitement surrounded the trip to Paris as Parisien friends had hinted towards an interesting location for the project: a tunnel and train track next to a hidden gypsy camp. After a long walk through the forest with a pack of canvasses, Does and Stephan Polman stumbled upon this trackside spot in Paris. On the way back while walking through the gypsy garden, Does found a rusty ‘get away’ van with bullet holes and could not resist the temptation of giving it a layer of paint.
After this extraordinary painting session they went straight to Paris centre, where a few glasses of fine French wine were awaiting them. On the way back they stopped at the square in front of La Basilique Du Sacre Coeur as sunrise was kicking in, the streets were being cleaned and the fresh milk was being delivered: “Il est cinq heures, Paris s’eveille”. The icing on the cake was Blankeroy’s email with beats and melodies for each of the cities they visited so far.

Danish graffiti 1984-2013 at Kunsten Aalborg
Words from KUNSTEN Museum of Modern Art:
Works by more than 100 graffiti artists take visitors on a journey through 30 years of Danish graffiti.
The exhibition will present canvases, walls, books, photos and even toy trains, but will also venture out into the city itself, where several of the artists will conduct workshops and create permanent artworks together with children and young people. The exhibition spotlights an artistic genre, which for many children and young people represents an introduction to art in general, and is a legitimate platform for creative expression.The exhibition will also focus on how this totally unique art form has become more and more refined and multi-facetted over the last 30 years. Like rap music and other areas of “street” culture, graffiti has become a part of our everyday lives. It breaks down barriers and makes room for a culture, which is not reserved for an elite, but reaches out to every level of society.
In Danish:
Kunsten Aalborg viser den første udstilling, der udelukkende har fokus på dansk graffiti som kunstart
og rummer en overflod af værker, der viser den enorme spændvidde, der eksisterer indenfor graffitikunsten, som vi møder i den moderne storby.
Over 100 graffitikunstnere tager publikum med gennem 30 års dansk graffiti og viser lærreder, vægge, bøger, fotos og sågar Märklintog.

Any reason is good when you travel and extend your ties with friends in other countries. This is what Gris One and Onycks (Lyon, France)had in mind when they went on a tour in Barcelona, Sevilla and Elche. Their final destination was Barcelona where we had the opportunity to make a wall with them, Some good food and a conversation over some wine.
