World Cup @ Crewest
Crewest – Los Angeles, CA
6/5/10 to 7/4/10

In celebration of the World Cup, Crewest presents the World Cup @ Crewest, an urban art exhibition uniting people together through their common love of a game and the arts. On display by the exhibiting artists will be customized soccer balls donated by PUMA as well as each artist’s works in association with the World Cup viewing parties to take place all month long. Not all the artwork is soccer-related but they each exemplify the individual artist’s style and technique.

Artists Vyal, Huit and Man One to exhibit very original graffiti-based work. Also on display will be portraitures of this year’s soccer stars by Isais Crow and Travis Moore. French artist Happy Friandise will be presenting a very playful custom ball in her “Happy Plush” style, as she calls it, which is a cut and sew characterized pillow of sorts. Other notable artwork by Michael Pizarro, known for his original art on skate decks and Werc known for his beautiful paintings dealing with Mexican border issues.

In conjunction with the exhibition, featured artist ELSE will be creating an installation in the Featured Artist Room as he transforms that space of the gallery into a graffiti filled vision. Known for his great street style lettering and intricately painted murals adorned with roses and infused with the use of textured wheatpasted imagery, Else is planning an elaborate installation of canvases and original artwork.

Exhibiting Artists: ELSE – STEVE TALKOWSKI – ASYLM –  ISAIS CROW – ALLAN DOMONGO – ENIKONE – HAPPY FRIANDISE – HUIT – GERALDINE LOZANO – MAN ONE -TRAVIS MOORE – NOMADE – MICHAEL PIZARRO – SACRED194 – VYAL – WERC + a few others.
