Docs We Love :: Banksy's The Antics Roadshow

My early night to bed was hijacked by The Antics Roadshow, an hour-long TV special directed by none other than Banksy compiling rather clever forms of anarchy, irreverent protests, flash mobs, streaks & pranks. Enjoy the program in its entirety below. – Moni Vargas

Our photos from MOCA’s Art in the Streets continue with a few of our favorites, beginning with Mister Cartoon. His sexy ice cream truck installation captures a slice of the LA cholo scene in beautiful detail. Also on the LA tip, there’s a couple of protest posters by Robbie Conal: Contra Cocaine, dealing with the Iran-Contra-Crack epidemic from 1987 and Little White Lies featuring right-wing fundamentalist Jesse Helms.
On a lighter note, we had a good laugh with NeckFace’s installation & “performance” piece as a dirty bum, which may have been a preview treat. We also enjoyed the two Malcolm Mclaren memorabilia cases, the Lee Quinones tribute wall and Mode 2′s celebratory mural. Don’t miss Martha Cooper’s photography room featuring a wall of artists including one of our faves, Doze Green and look our upcoming FWL Axis profile with her. We included a few other pics for those who won’t be able to make it to the show : ) – Moni Vargas

We had the pleasure of going to the MOCA preview of Art in the Streets and although a few of our favorite artists were not included, we couldn’t help but be infinitely inspired by the mere scope of the show, the well deserved recognition of the movement and the incredible works and worlds assembled. We took a few photos for those of you who won’t be in LA in the next months to see it. For those of you who are going, don’t miss Rammallzee’s room, Os Gemeos, the amazing time line, Martha Cooper’s room, Mister Cartoon, Swoon, Roa, Chalfant & the sweet Invader pieces.

In the meantime, take a look at our short doc profiles with Invader and Kenny Scharf.
