Diplo Presents: @LARGE – CREATORS AT WORK: 1x2

Streets Are Watching

The “Godfather” of street art does some reverse shoplifting, placing his art into a supermarket for others to “steal” and also creates his own fake storefront supermarket full of fake products all of which are quite polemic. He gives away his art in return for donations to a women’s shelter. Blake Shaw rose to prominence for his video paintings, which were featured in the New York Times. His latest project finds him working in Israel, collaborating with young artists on both sides of the separation barrier and projecting their works on each side of the wall.
