INSA Mural for LA Freewalls

UK artist and designer INSA took to downtown Los Angeles in a spray painting frenzy this month, giving the Artshare building in the heart of the Arts District a much needed facelift. In a collaborative effort with LA Freewalls and Daniel Lahoda of Jet Set Graffiti, who supplied the material and equipment, the idealistic INSA had to raise his own fare for the flight and logistics by selling a dozen paper paintings online. This completed mural pays ode to the free enjoyment of public art, and commemorates the twelve buyers who have made it possible by having their names painted on the final LA wall.

Kidult Tags SoHo Marc Jacobs Store

Kidult has added to his growing list of victims, this time by tagging the Marc Jacobs store in SoHo with the word ‘ART’ spray painted across the front. From what we hear, store employees were a bit shook when they saw it and they took a proactive approach to the removal of the graffiti from the shop. Kidult tweeted out the photo earlier and said: I did some ART?

Take a look at the cleanup after the jump.

Rios called “La leyanda de la Malena.”  Created in Jaen in Southern Spain last year, this project takes street art to a whole new level. Brush up on your Spanish and watch in amazement as Belin and Rios create one of the most unique graffiti pieces in the world.
