STEET ART - MOCA GEFFEN Los Angeles



The amazing STREET ART exhibition at the MOCA GEFFEN CONTEMPORARY MUSEUM in LA was truly mind blowing!

So much art and installation!

The show chronicles the birth and emerging of grafitti and art as it filters through the 60 70 and 80's. A wonderful assemblage of many voices and views. Many artists that I've only read about are there- Banksy, Shephed Fairy, Kenny Scharf, Keith Haring, as well as a grafatti purse by Louis Viutton!

I loved it all...and am so happy that I got to see such a timely exhibition.

There is much creativity in the street- and much has entered popular culture in ways we have no idea - clothes, cars, text messages, etc.

Plan to go see the exhibition if you are anywhere close.

The street art is fabulous! I have a blog-friend in Paris, and they too support and celebrate grafitti art.

The street art show was exceptional. So many areas of expression- cars, murals, grafitti, fashion, etc. It is the visual voice to a new generation!
