Flox & Fly My Pretties Exhibition

We went to the exhibition opening on Monday. Here are a few snaps taken by Jason Hailes. This was Flox’s first solo show and we were blown away by the work, especially the large hand cut white stencils and works on wood.

The exhibition is in time with the release of the Fly My Pretties IV CD and DVD that Flox did the artwork for. There is also a room to chill and have a beer while watching the new the DVD.

It is on all week and open until 6pm at 155 K road (just next to Verona). Go there have a drink and you may even bump into Hayley herself. This is also a seriously good chance to own a Flox one off or a very low edition piece.

We have a hand-picked selection of limited edition prints by Flox.

 

Melbourne Street Art

Some of us have been in Melbourne recently. Lucky for us “the City of Melbourne recognises the importance of street art in contributing to a vibrant urban culture”.

Unlike an art gallery, the smell here lingers between urine and fresh paint. And the art, as a result, is not like what you would find hanging on clean fresh walls. There is every kind of style and subject you can imagine, mish mashed, side by side, covering every nook and cranny. This is just a snippet of the walls we saw…

Here is a quick list of must visit Melbourne Street Art Websites & Resources.

The Cut Collective are in Wellington and Auckland painting some huge billboards with Nokia. Follow their progress, daily pics. Not a bad office.

 

Kinoo Art Prints – Framed Kiwi & Tiki

Someone recently purchased a couple of Kinoo prints. Both A3, brown and framed in black. They looked so damn good we just had to take a quick snap before they departed the building. We also think they look better in pairs. If you bought these prints, send us a snap when they’re hung on your wall, we would be keen to share with everyone how they look!

Normally $78.95 each, but because of the current summer sale, these prints are only  $132 including NZ shipping for both!
