More from Semi-Permanent: Stupid Krap's 'Kids Today'
More from Ms. Alana Armstrong, reporting live from Australia:
The spacious MTV galleries in Sydney played host to Stupid Krap’s, Kids Today show, which packed out the space with artists, bands and the residual masses from Semi-Permanent.
Breifly, Stupid Krap is the brainchild of Aussie artists, Madeline Boyd and Ben Frost who aimed to build an online artist portal and shop, serving up some of the hottest international (with an emphasis on Aussie) talents around.
Kids Today featured some perrenial favourites, HAHA, Kill Pixie, Numskull, Anthony Lister and of course, Mr. Frost himself but also included the fresh faces of Hana Shimada, James Jirat Patradoon and XX’Zilla.
The party swelled to the sounds of The Wahas and Yes Nukes! until the drinks ran dry and at least one artwork was ruined, which seems to be happening more often, these days.
At the centre of the gallery was a massive collaborative effort, using images from most, if not all of the artists featured that night. Constructed by Ben Frost, the photocopy wall is a black and white wallpaper installation, this one with each artist’s contribution interlocking in Frost’s signature style.
The wall is a tribute to Stupid Krap’s art printing and distribution service from which Frost and Boyd seem to be drawing in plenty new creative talents.

Simply Rad: Alana Armstrong Visits Australia's Semi-Permanent Conference
Hiya all,
Our friend Alana Armstrong recently checked out the fantastic Semi-Permanent conference in Australia where she met up with long-time Overspray pal and Australian painter Anthony Lister, who we featured in issue 5, Character Kings.
The two-day Semi-Permanent conference and off-site side events, organized by Design Is Kinky, brings together a diverse group of art-based professionals willing to enlighten a big, eager audience. Touring this week with stops in Perth, Brisbane and Auckland, New Zealand, Lister presented his talk on the morning of April 5th in Sydney.
AA: If you could have your audience take away one thing from your talk, what would it be?
AL: It would be that there is hope for these people on this little island who feel like they're little people on a little island. I guess America is just a big, beautiful place full of opportunity and you just have to get out and get within it.
And I hope people are going to feel compelled to take my advice that money is only good for eating and traveling.
I’m off to Milan tomorrow for a show and then to LA for a show at New Image on the 26th of April and I’m pretty stoked about that and I hope that I get to eat a lot of good food along the way.
AA: Was there a time when you made a decision to be a painter above all else?
AL: I always knew it’s what I wanted to do but if I could register a point where I thought it was actually possible, it was probably when I didn’t go to work one day for pizza delivery when I was in university and my kid was like two months old and I was like, “You know, that’s the last time I’m ever going to hate work again.” I had a bunch of jobs ahead of me, things that I had to do. Back then I would get emails and phone calls for things that today, I would pass on but at that time, I was really excited and it just got better. It’s just been a real fun, big journey.
AA: Were there any really poignant moments along the way that have informed yourself or your work?
AL: Yeah, there have but none of them have been so certain that I can take them for granted. I’m always so sure that this could all be over so I treat every moment like it’s supremely important and like it’s my last.
I’m only as good as my last decision and I’m only as good as my last production.
AA: Do you embark on any collaboration with other artists as part of your practice?
AL: I do but not for my personal practice. I do it more for community type projects. I like to interact with other people who are doing what I do and if making work together comes up, it’s sweet when it happens. An artist that I enjoy talking about making art and the process with is Ben Frost. He’s an experienced artist that I went to uni with.
That’s a big part of my practice.
AA: Can you tell me about your relationship with Ben Frost and your work with Stupid Krap?
AL: Ben and I have known each other for many years and I’ve always admired his work so much. When we were at uni, he was like the ‘god painter’. This was before I even knew about Ron English.
So, a couple years ago, just before I moved to the states, he was talking to me about starting up a print company which I thought was a great idea and other friends were doing it like Faile Collective in New York. Galleries, for the longest time have been in the peripheral of an artist’s practice; they earn money without really being a part of an artist’s practice.
The thing that I love about Super Krap is that it’s built by artists, for artists and its making good work.
Another thing that I love about it is that they pay attention to who they give their work to. In London, people are just buying and selling shit up, it’s going crazy. So, I like that they’re sensitive to that issue.
AA: Can you tell me about the piece that you did for last night’s Super Krap show, Kids Today?
AL: The first series of three was like a Spiderman and Robin and a Bat Girl and I just really love those pieces, they’re a part of my contemporary mythology, how we see heroes. Coming out of my criminal paintings, I thought about what the polar opposite was of these criminals and in the real world it would be the police and in the mythological world that I like, it was super heroes. So then I started playing with anonymity and asking, ‘Who has power here?’ And then graffiti came to me and I was like, ‘Wow, all of these graffiti artists are like super heroes. No one knows who they are but everyone knows who they are.’
And then I did this, Ani as Robin, smoking kind of a Juno-type teenage girl having a cigarette while she’s still dressed as a superhero. Also, the idea of being a sidekick or an understudy; how much does an understudy get? How much is their worth? How much do they even care?
I enjoy and work really hard at what I do. I feel that I have a responsibility for every mark I make and I feel that if I can keep that up, maybe I can keep painting forever.

Street art to adorn the Tate Modern in London!
*Borrowed from the evening standard:
Coming to the outside of the Tate this summer
The work of six acclaimed street artists is to transform the outside of Tate Modern.
In the first commission by the gallery to involve the building's exterior, six 15-metre wide by 12-metre high works will be visible on the Thames side of the building from 23 May until the end of August.
It will also be the first major public museum display of street art in London.
The artists who will create the original pieces are Blu from Bologna, the collective Faile from New York, JR from Paris, Nunca and Os Gemeos, both from Sao Paulo and Sixeart from Barcelona.
Their work began in public urban spaces and their styles evolved from street art and graffiti traditions. But all six have reached a level of recognition where their work is represented in major collections and galleries all over the world.
Curator Cedar Lewisohn said: "It's an exciting project and one that has not been done in London on this scale before. These are big pieces - one artist described it as monster.
"As these will be outside, there were all kinds of factors - technical and aesthetic that we had to consider. But the artists' work is quite beautiful and stunning - we believe the public will love this."
Street art, as opposed to textbased graffiti and tagging, is notoriously hard to categorise and is a genre in constant flux.
Yet such styles go back as far as Pompeii and have influenced artist such as Picasso.
The images that Blu produces portray a macabre fascination with death and the inner workings of the human body, while Faile take inspiration from deteriorating advertising and flyposting. The work of photographer JR has a strong political and social impetus. Nunca is heavily influenced by the geometric patterns and colours found in the indigenous artwork and culture of South America, while Os Gemeos - twin brothers Otavio and Gustavo Pandolfo - create dreamlike images taking in aspects of Brazilian folklore.
The work of Sixeart combines psychedelic abstraction with childlike images.
Mr Lewisohn said: "These are some of the best street artists in the world today and normally fans of this genre would rarely get to see their work as it is meant to be displayed - outside in an urban environment.
"We also hope to introduce street art to a whole new audience."
Street Art at Tate Modern opens at the same time as the gallery's four-day festival of art and performance, UBS Openings: The Long Weekend.

Calling all artists
I almost never forward things, but these two postings were a little hard to pass up:
1. Race across the country hawking your stuff for $20,000
"CASTING: ART RACE
Gallery HD and Illuminations Media are looking for two Fearless, Charismatic, Passionate & Informed ARTISTS to take the definitive chutzpah road trip.
Two Artist/Art Racers must cross the US in 40 days, surviving only on
Art. Armed with art materials, cameras and a $1 dollar budget, the
Artist/Art Racers must “trade” Art for food, shelter and other art
-works.
Starting on opposite coasts (one in NYC and one in LA), the Art
Racers’ odyssey culminates in a home-city exhibition of all the works
they have created and collected along the way. The winner is the
Artist/Art Racer who sells/trades the most artwork. Or at least the one
who survives.
Looking for great communicators who interact well with all sorts of
people and can make smart commentary as life happens. Intelligent, sassy
and witty are good too. All participants must live in the New York or
Los Angeles areas, be at least 21 years old and a US citizen or legal
resident alien.
If this is you, please submit the following:
- recent photo (no older than 6 months)
- bio or resume
- sample of your art (photo reproduction okay)
- short essay explaining why you are an Art Racer
- be sure to include your full name, home city and phone number
Please send all ASAP to: subs@barbarabarnacasting.com
**Bio/Resume & Essay should be in body of email**
photo attachments okay
ART RACE shoots May 26 – July 11 for appx 40 days on the road + up to
5 add’l shoot days & voice over.
Each Art Racer will receive $20,000 US for participating.
Production Company is Illuminations Media
UK www.illuminationsmedia.co.uk"
2. Giant legal spot
Who: You
What: Legal graffiti
Size: 30 x 32 yards
Where: 220 W. 19th Street, New York
When: Now through May 12, 2008
Sponsored by: Diesel
"Indulge your artistic and competitive sides with a shot at public exposure—and not the limo-leaving kind—when you apply to exhibit your original artwork on the fifth annual Diesel Wall, arriving in the States for the first time. Traditional painting and photography routes are kosher, but so are media like video and performance art. So stop drawing on your jeans and start thinking big. Applications and information are available at http://www.diesel.com/cult/wall/."
You're welcome :)

Dearest Oversprayers,
I'm delighted to inform you that the Inoperable Gallery in Vienna has now opened its Paypal doors to allow us non-wieners to buy its incredible art over the internet.
We can all buy slammin' art at sick prices from some of our favorite artists starting with those included in this month's Stencil History X book release show without hopping on a $600 dollar flight to Vienna.
So go! shop! quickly - before someone else snatches up these treasures from the likes of C215, Artiste-Ouvrier (one of my favorites), EZP and many more!

Hektor Spray-paint output device
This contraption is the opening piece for the Design and the Elastic Mind show that's up at the MoMA in NYC right now!
what the blurb says (thanks MoMA!):
Jürg Lehni (Swiss born 1978) and Uli Franke (German born 1978)
Hektor Spray-Paint Output device
Stepper motor, toothed belts, aluminum casing, spray can, suitcase, custom-made electronics, and Scriptographer software.
“In a publishing world dominated by paper and ink, Hektor allows for printing with spray paint. The contraption commands a suspended spray-paint can that ”prints” text written using Scriptographer, an Adobe Illustrator scripting plug-in designed by Lehni. “During operation, the mechanism sometimes trembles and wobbles and the paint often drips,” the designers say, creating a tension between low and high technology. “
Maybe we should print our next issue this way??

Do you live in Vienna?!
Then go head over to the Mumok TONIGHT where Graffiti Research Lab will be doing Drip sessions and Laser Tagging!
Go!

MORE Catch Up!
Was anyone else lucky enough to catch the HAZE custom Mountain Dew bottle release party on Feb 28? Haze had his giant abstract paintings up on the walls and was more than nice about letting us fans snap his picture and ask for signatures (if you were lucky enough to grab one of the limited edition bottles set up as 'decoration').
It was nuts. Totally packed but enough room for dancing, open bar, and EPMD! what?! yes! EPMD! nuts...
the crowd, the art
Logan and HAZE
EPMD
