Last night was the Artists’ Opening of Art In The Streets at MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) in Los Angeles. This is the first major exhibit of Graffiti & Street Art ever presented in the United States. Stephanie & I have a few friends that were asked to be a part of the show so it was pretty exciting to attend the event. Last night’s Artists’ Opening was a sight to be seen or be seen at. Everyone from Graffiti legends to Hollywood stars and musicians were in attendance. I highly recommend this show to everyone. It opens to the public on Sunday.
Risk got to work on a Metro bus. This is one side.

Some of the art on display. I think it is going to take me a couple of times to see everything!
Mister Cartoon painted a wall and brought out some paintings and his famous Ice Cream Truck and his 1939 Chevy to be a part of the show.
Here’s a few people pictures.

Pourquoi BLU n’est-il pas présent dans cette exposition ?
L’art de la rue aurait-il des limites à la liberté d’expression ?
Le marché de l’art aurait-il du mal à intégrer les œuvres productrices de sens, au-delà du convenu ?
L’épisode de décembre 2010 au MOCA est vite évacué, je trouve …
