STREET ART COOK BOOK
by CHRIS GROSSO on Jun.25, 2010, under COLLABS, Chris Grosso, GRAFFITI, STREET ART, THINGS YOU WISH YOU HAD

Street Art Cookbook is a complete guide to the materials and techniques used within today’s most creative and progressive art movement. In hundreds of pictures and illustrations and a dozen of interviews with some of the world’s most famous artists author Benke Carlsson and street artist Hop Louie shows how street art is made. From stencils and stickers to lasertagging and guerilla gardening, Street Art Cookbook takes us on a trip around the world in the search of the tricks and trades of street artists. Street artists don’t ask for permission. They skip the established channels and communicate when and where they want. Posters, stickers, screenprint, mosaic och sculptures – there are no limits for their imagination.

PATRICK MARTINEZ PRESENTS THE ARIZONA WETBACKS
by CHRIS GROSSO on Jun.18, 2010, under ART, COLLABS, Chris Grosso, EVENTS, PHOTOGRAPHY, SHIT YOU WISH YOU HAD, STREETWEAR



Artist Patrick Martinez, connects the dots with the major league baseball team the “Arizona Diamondbacks” and the new immigration law in Arizona to create a subtle but yet hard hitting visual. Martinez teamed up with Quintin to produce three limited hats that work as art pieces and will be shown in a gallery context.
“I created the hat pieces to visually show the connection between the racist republicans that run the “Arizona Diamondbacks”(a major league baseball team) and how they are helping to push the Arizona SB1070 law by generous funding. I re-named the team with the racist inspired name Arizona Wetbacks because I believe it’s more of a fit based on the racist actions the owners are taking with the SB1070 bill which they are helping to advance.I created three hats for the three players on the diamondbacks of latin decent (Juan Guitterez, Gerardo Parra, and Rodrigo Lopez) that will be celebrated on the field then asked for their papers when they leave it.”
“This bill is a step backwards in terms of progression. It is also a giant slap in the face to the many people that fought for equal rights in the past as well as the present. The SB1070 law has the feeling of the beginning stages of apartheid.This bill should be stopped. Arizona is down with the brown, fo-real.”

Z trip got busy, one of the few DJ’s in the game I would say you must see live

“I call you Pha real cuz you da truth”

EMINEM + TRAVS BRKR + THE ALCHEMIST
Last night I took advantage of the rare opportunity to see live music and drink for free all thanks to the people at the staples center and Activision. The only bummer of the event was the absence of Tony Hawk shreding on a wire dropped ramp, he just hit a five footer and pumped a Tony Hawk Shread game. It was kind of cool being drunk off free staples center beer on the court, listening to eminem and knowing in this very spot, Kobe will beat the Celtics here tomorrow.
Anyway, saw a dope sequence of Black ops with fire works and the whole deal, game is gonna be a must have!
SIX FLAGS OVER MY APARTMENT
by CHRIS GROSSO on Jun.14, 2010, under ART, Chris Grosso, PHOTOGRAPHY, SHIT YOU WISH YOU HAD



As usual, none of the sick architecture goes down in America, the progressive/innovative work always takes place in some obscure location with loose building codes and laws.
“The ‘everrich 2′ apartments by vietnamese dwp architects is a housing complex which
measures 630,000 square meters, and reaches a height of 37 storeys. in total,
there are 3,100 apartment units ranging from 120 to 250 square meters each,
with two floors of mixed retail and public space on the ground level. the project aims to be
a self-sustaining community in district 7, ho chi minh city, and construction has already
begun with approval from local authorities.”
