Nuart, the annual street art festival held in Stravanger, Norway, is about to kick off. This year's theme is Brooklyn & NYC artists; some of those participating include Swoon, David Choe, Brad Downey, Judith Supine, Leon Reid IV/ Darius Jones, Chris Stain, Logan Hicks, Skewville ... and more. I'll feature the work as it comes.

The daily program list has just been announced (see below), which kicks off with a presentation from Leon Reid IV/ Darius Jones (of Darius & Downey fame). For a flavor of how great that will be, check out this talk he gave recently (annoyingly chopped into 5 short segments - the first is below):



See parts two, three, four & five.
