"Just as graffiti or street art, “shoeffiti” (hanging used trainers1 from overhead telephone and electric cables around town) has gone global. There’s been a lot of talk about what it means. Whether it came about to mark out turf, to flag hotspots, the sale of drugs, the death of a gang member or just as a fetishized homage to some jaunt, for me, isn’t so important. But ... it’s turned out to be the new urban metaphor.

Greenery grows. Life within shoes.... Greenery as metaphor for the path ahead."

Zaragoza is Roa's latest stop, and his work keeps getting better. I particularly like the subtle use of the walls, like the rope on the rabbit 'tied' to the cables and the billboard acting as an xray into the squirrel.

Eine's show at the Carmichael Gallery, 'The A-Z of Change', opened tonight, and his new photo montage & grid style looked great against a mass of brightly colored squares. Most of the imagery is of key figures or moments in British history - including Winston Churchill, Michael Caine, Margret Thatcher & the poll tax riots. In the front gallery there is an installation of Eine's signature letters that have been cut, rearranged and assembled in fractal shapes.

The show runs through July; details here; show catalog here
