When you’re compelled, you gotta do what you gotta do.
But what if you suddenly can’t do that anymore?
Then you gotta do what you can, and you work with what you’ve got.
In this collection of recent paintings and collages, Cassius Fouler has graffiti on the brain, and the work provides a glimpse into the nature of creative compulsion as well as the increasingly hazy line between graffiti and fine art.

In celebration of Klughaus Gallery’s one-year anniversary, we are thrilled to announce “Snap Back – Dangerous Drawings About New York,” a dual artist show featuring Brooklyn natives RIME (Jersey Joe) and TOPER. “Snap Back” will feature illustrations and paintings that integrate elements of the artists’ past experiences living in New York City; each piece is inspired by a personal story. “TOPER is one of my oldest friends and a very talented guy with a very interesting life experience,” says RIME. “This show aims to tap into our life experience coming up in New York.”
Best known for his explosive use of color combined with dynamic lettering and innovative characters, RIME started painting graffiti in Staten Island in 1991. He spent many years mastering his style throughout New York and New Jersey and had achieved international recognition for his distinct aesthetic by 2003. In 2005, RIME moved to Los Angeles to concentrate on fine art. It was also in 2005 that he became a member of the legendary crew MSK. This marks the first time in almost a decade that RIME will be headlining a show back in his hometown.
TOPER grew up painting alongside such legends as Dash Snow (SACE), REVS, DG, SETUP, SCOPE, and of course, RIME, after the two met growing up in Staten Island. TOPER’s name has been known and respected in the New York graffiti art scene since the mid-to-late 1990s as a writer known for his distinctive New York street-motivated style, a technique he is now channeling into his fine art.
Not much is known to the world about the bizarre countries within Central Asia all ending with ‘stan. ‘Meet the Stans’ documents the journey of a group of various skateboarders traveling along the ancient Silk Road traversing China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Afghanistan.
Featuring Dave Bachinsky, Jimmy McDonald, Laurence Keefe, Dan Zvereff, Stas Provotorov, Gosha Konyshev, Walker Ryan, Kenny Reed and Michael Mackrodt.

We had a chance to produce and illustrate an animation for Grantland based off an amazing story from mister Jalen Rose. Jalen, former NBA player and basketball legend gave us plenty of material to have fun with. Extra props to Stephan Halker for the illustration and the Doubleday and Cartwright family for the animation and directing.

I send my positive vibrations to my friends and all the people in Manhattan without electricity. I hope everything will come back to normal soon. Here is 3 shots I took from my roof at 10.30 tonight.
You can clearly see the Williamsburg bridge’s power being cut right in the middle between Brooklyn and the Lower East Side. Downtown looks like a ghost town.
This is a shot from about Delancey to 25th Street… Pretty damn dark.
Few blocks bellow the Empire State Building is were the power starts to be out.
Those photos do not show how crazy it looks in real life.
