‘Twenty-five years ago I was doing one-man shows and street art was outcast; people thought it was outrageous. It was pretty hairy in those days, when graffiti artists would go out and paint trains. Then, it was all about getting your train seen from one side of the city to the other’
- Goldie

So impressed with Jaybo‘s current show at the Circle Culture gallery in Berlin, we’ve decided to break clean out of our much loved UK shackles to cover some overseas activity. The show is on until February 1 2009, check the jump for a small gallery of pics.
We've been involved in the art world in one way or another for years now and thought it was probably about time to set something up ourselves.
