::Trains Of Thought – Meeting Of Styles / Montreal::
Thanks to all who have showed up to the Trains Of Thought show at the Yves Laroche Gallery in Montreal! The show was a great success and good to see everyone from New York and Montreal chilling. People traveled from as far as Los Angeles, Ohio and Florida to make it to the affair.
Today artists from all over the North American continent, as well as the World, will be painting at the Meeting Of Styles event.
Montreal has been very supportive of the Graffiti culture, and we hope to be doing another event next year.
We are going to be posting photos of the event this weekend, stay with us….
::Trains of Thought // Streets Are Saying Things + Yves Laroche::
TRAINS OF THOUGHT
Curated by Streets Are Saying Things.Com and Yves Laroche.Com
Trains Of Thought is a new show that features the most talented and fresh artists in the graffiti art field. The artists featured in this show have the most extensive history and talent in the graffiti community. They will be applying their skills to Giclee Trains that will be exhibited in the show, and the subjects they choose are their original thoughts.
Artists from New York City, Montreal, and all over the world will be featured in this exhibit. 60+ artists will be featured all together in this exhibit, and they will school you!
Painting a train has traditionally been something special to a graffiti writer, and is a phenomenon that is something to bare witness of. The thoughts that are being laid onto these pieces of art are exceptional and some just sophisticatedly simple.
Come see the Installations, sculptures, paintings, photographs, sketches and studies, limited edition prints and products that will be available at this show.
There will be a book signing by the curators of “Piecebook, the secret drawings of graffiti writers”, written by Sacha Jenkins and David ‘Chino’ Villorente.
