Call us boring and simple-minded, but before we saw the work of street artist Joshua Allen Harris we never once considered the artistic possibilities of subway exhaust. Using only tape and garbage bags, Harris creates giant inflatable animals that become animated when fastened to a sidewalk grate. Steven Psyllos caught up with Harris recently to discuss his older works (including a bear and a giraffe) and unveil a new beast that looks not unlike the Cloverfield monster. Video by Jonah Green

We're very excited to share our latest project with you all; "Life Line" by Brooklyn Based Stencil Master, Logan Hicks. (www.workhorsevisuals.com) This print will be available at www.jetsetgraffiti.com on June 9th, 2010. Release is at 12PM PST, 3PM EST, 8PM GMT Known around the world as one of the hardest working artists alive, Logan is among the most talented contemporary artists today. His vision is exacting, and his standards are extremely high. After months of discussions, we decided to use a special Liquid Graphite Pigment with Silver Flake to provide the solid slate-like feel that Logan wanted in this print while maintaining a sense of depth and variation that is so important to his artwork. The results are striking. As a special variation for the collectors, we also printed 15 with Gold Metallic inks. More info. available at www.jetsetgraffiti.com/printsforsale/ The edition was created at Modern Multiples Studio in Los Angeles under the supervision of Master Printer, Richard Duardo. Video Edited by Kevin Chapados, Directed by Chunwoo Kae, Produced by Daniel Lahoda for JetSet Graffiti Productions in Brooklyn, New York.
We had the pleasure of playing outside with Mr. Brainwash (AKA Thierry Guetta) back in August of 2008. Given his newfound popularity as the focus of Banksy's movie, Exit Through The Gift Shop, we decided to put this up for our viewers to enjoy. Life Is Beautiful! Filmed by Kevin Chapados and Thomas Peyton for JetSet Graffiti.
