Canadian street artist Labrona recently got up in Culver City. Look for him in the recently released book ‘Beyond The Street: The 100 Leading Figures In Urban Art’ and catch his work in ‘Booked’ currently on view through July 3rd at Carmichael Gallery in Culver City.

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art’s Prints and Drawings Council will host the world premiere screening of Rhino Films’ and Foundation Films’ documentary feature, Robert Williams: Mr. Bitchin’. This will be a rare opportunity to catch the film before its release to the public this fall and even meet Williams himself.

Living legends El Mac and Retna recently finished up a massive new collaborative mural over in Culver City on the side of the Graphaids bldg on La Cienega (near Washington Blvd intersection).

The two worked with a small crew for a good half-dozen days on this beauty. Was fun to watch it come together over the past week.

Check out some some pics of the mural coming together below.
