I've received numerous questions on how to make the "Obama Icon" as featured on PasteMagazine.com. It's a pretty easy application if you know what levers to pull and button to push. My friend Vicki was unable to save her icon so I made this video to help take her the through steps. Get your own icon at http://obamaiconme.com

The Talk Radio News Service performed an interview with popular artist Shepard Fairey at the "Manifest Hope: DC" gallery opening.

This week we're wondering who our new enemy should be! And somewhat ironically, we are also looking at ways that social media can unite people. Howard Stern thinks blogging is for losers, Ze Frank is trying to bring together red states and blue states, and the FU of the Week is delivered by a filmmaker using the web to bring people together to crowd-fund her new movie.

Elbowtoe has been at this street art game for a long time, and now we join him as he discusses his perceptions of street art, studio art, and the aesthetic pervasiveness of both aspects of his work. From his raw paste-ups on the street, to his intricate and highly detailed collage work inside, his work is unsurpassed in both talent and emotion... We're really happy to share this video with everyone. Look for Elbow Toe with Armsrock at his upcoming show at Thinkspace Gallery in Los Angeles, opening on December 12th, 2008.

Mr. Brainwash, or MBW, is the moniker of an eccentric French filmmaker. MBW has spent the last nine years attempting to make the ultimate documentary about graffiti art. But whilst filming many of the world s most renowned street artists at work, MBW began putting his camera aside and making art of his own. He has graduated from a few hand-drawn stickers to giant billboard sized paste-ups. MBW does not fit the stereotype of your average street vandal. His artistic process chiefly consists of throwing random modern cultural icons into a blender and turning it up to eleven. The results are by turns profound, provocative and inspirational. Life is beautiful is the first exhibition ever mounted by Mr. Brainwash. It took place in a former Hollywood studio complex and featured over 200 paintings, sculptures and prints alongside an installation made from 25,000 books and a life-size re-creation of Edward Hopper s Nighthawks.
