Street Spotted at 6/8 Kafe

You can't judge me this time! Yesterday I slept, worked and put all the photos from Street Spotted on my Flickr at 1 in the morning! No complaining! You should have been there to see it live!

Street Spotted was a success! The cafe's basement was busy constantly from 4-8 and some excellent work was produced by Curs, G87, Lisk and Vomit. Box and Blackbone also came down from Manchester for the event but all that talent couldn't be left just sitting at a table so they did a piece together on a spare board. Photo time!

Discoveries!

First up this week we have a solitary new Miss150 paste; we can only speculate as to why there is only one new lady in Digbeth; did Miss150 run out of paste? Did the other ladies fall out with her? Who knows...

There's also this new piece in The Custard Factory's car park:

Which turns out to be advertising for a film called Treading Water directed by Council Child Productions. The work itself is by The Goldfingers who specialise in performance graffiti and according to their website got through to the quarter finals of Britain's Got Talent in 2010 (though a lazy YouTube search found no evidence of this). Here's a time lapse video of the piece being done:

Also spotted some new stickers by Rebel Gunslingers:

 You're*, Bradford Street

A Google search reveals they're responsible for the 'you like this' pastes:

Poor evidence of one above the Golden Boy paste, Fazeley Street

And various other bits I've spotted around Birmingham. Their Facebook page says:

'We're a street art duo (Tenko and Pyro) determined to double team the many locations in Solihull and Birmingham that are just simply gagging to be turned into art!!!'

Yesterday was the opening of an exhibition with work from Golden Boy, Lisk and Miss150 at the 6/8 Kafe in the city centre, I knew about it last week but forget to say. It's running for 6 weeks until the 19th November and I'm attempting to organise something fun and arty as a closing event. More information coming soon!
