The blueprint: Collaborating the iconic LADS characters drawn by CHAZ with the tight architectural and illustrative landscapes of BOB GIBSON.

IMAGES OF THE YEAR from Brooklyn Street Art
‘Whether from a rooftop in Bushwick, Brooklyn, a block-long wall in Miami, or the "Art in the Streets" show at LA MOCA, BSA readers got to see a lot of great images this year. Here's a selection of some of the best in 2011 all jammed together in one little video. As you sample this eye-candy platter, dig the staccato soundtrack made of sounds culled from Brooklyn's streets by electro duo Javelin, who spent a day in the Red Hook neighborhood collecting sounds and then mixed them in the back of their car. Released today, the video is top story on Brooklyn Street Art and Huffington Post Arts today. Enjoy!’ text by BSA

I think we can all agree that The London Police website is poor to say the least. Pathetic. While some of the content is OK, it’s bland design and irregular updates make for a dull read. That’s where Facebook and Instagram comes in. Don’t be shy to like us and share in what is going on...
This cheeky little film shows a recent mural project in downtown Hollywood just north of Miami. What isn’t there to like? Art, sunshine, palm trees, an award winning film maker and a tune by Fujiya and Miyagi...
