Friday to Sunday were spent parked in front of Circolo degli Artisti, where they had commissioned Alice to paint some new murals to cover old ones that were corroding away. It’s an amazing experience to see the work from start to finish and always a pleasure when you are able to help document the work of a friend.

The wall looks even cooler at night owing to the...

Yes another world-class street artist is hitting up the Italian capital, and yet again it’s thanks to Wunderkammern, who you may remember hosted Invader in 2010. I’ve been waiting awhile for him to come to town, since if I recall correctly there was a rumor he was going to have a show at CO2 Gallery last year, but that never materialized. Unfortunately I haven’t been around (either out of the city or at work) in order to photography any of his installations, which have been...
