Spoke Art is putting on a fun show next month at Bold Hype Gallery in New York, called “Quentin vs Coen”. Ben Kehoe, Sam Wolfe Connelly, Max Dalton, and more than 100 other artists will be showing work inspired by the films of Quentin Tarantino and the Coen Brothers.
My good friend Jasper Wong (host of our Small Victories show in Hong Kong) is at it again! He has organized a wonderful event called Pow Wow in Oahu, Hawaii and I get to fly out there and be a part of it!
Jasper and I will be joining international artists Will Barras (London), Meggs (Melbourne), Wu Yue (Paris), and 123Klan (Montreal), as well as local artists Prime, Ekundayo, and Kamea Hadar.
The artists will be painting a venue called Loft in Space from February 16 to 19 and during this time the public is encouraged to come and interact with the artists while they work! The show will open the evening of February 19 with a huge celebration.
Following the event, a selection of the artists will develop graphics based on their experiences in Hawaii and a limited-edition capsule collection will be released in collaboration with Incase and In4mation.
Essentially it’s going to be the best vacation disguised as work EVER! I’ll be posting more about this as we get closer to the event but keep your eye on the POW WOW BLOG.
Below are a few of the hooligans involved!
“Crossing Lines” is a wonderful little film following Conor Harrington as he makes work in Tel Aviv, Israel and Bethlehem, Palestine.

The good guys at Mammoth Collection (based in Victoria, BC) are letting me give away an 8×10 print every friday this month! So who wants the first one? You will be able to pick any print from the collection but my first choice would be this one by Luke Ramsey!
