So pumped to report that DABS MYLA are featured in the pages of the new issue of the UK's VNA (Very Nearly Almost). By far one of the most respected magazines reporting on the street art movement, it's an honor that they've recognized the talents of these two amazing Aussies.

NOMADE will be taking over Hold Up Art in downtown Los Angeles this Saturday. One of my favorites currently crushing the streets of LA, this is a show you will not want to miss!
"This new collection of works masterfully integrates their iconic style, social metaphor, and visual fury into a full assault of the senses redefining the gallery space with the ethos of the street. Don’s miss this pivotal show that will surely ensure Nomade a prominent place in the Los Angeles Art Scene." - Brooklyn Street Art

To help introduce art lovers to some of the Street Artists in the upcoming show
“Street Art Saved My Life: 39 New York Stories”,
Thinkspace arranged to have Steven P. Harrington and Jaime Rojo of
Brooklyn Street Art connect with a number of the artists in the exhibit so they could take part in the “Back Talk” interview series made popular by the good folks at
Juxtapoz. We want to thank
Juxtapoz for running this series of interviews as they will serve as a great precursor to this very exciting show.

Allison Sommers has self-published a great lil' book of sketchbook drawings compiled from over the past year. 'FLOTSAM' is hardbound with dust jacket, 40 pages full color, and crammed with sketches, doodles, and brain-wispies from Allison that no one has ever seen. Culled from her Moleskine sketchbooks of 2010 and 2011, if you look hard, you can see the original idea-buds of paintings that she's created over the past year.
