Exhibits We Love :: Marxist Glue @ Hold Up Art
On one of my trips to LA before moving here, I had the luck and pleasure of meeting the artist behind YO!Peace, who kindly gave me a tour of the city’s most vibrant and prolific street artists. Needless to say, it was the best day of my trip. Now that we’ve made the move to the left coast, I am happy to see an exhibit showcasing some of these talented artists while building the bridge from urban canvas to gallery walls. Along with Yo!Peace, you’ll see politically charged Robbie Conal, the eastern-driven work of Cryptik, the economic commentary of Mark of the Beast as well as works by Nomade, Mear One and Eddie Colla, among others. This show also features a large collaborative piece between all the artists with enough material to keep eyes and minds captivated and woke!
