- Katharina Grosse
MoMa PS1 authorized German artist Katharina Grosse to spray-paint Superstorm Sandy ruin at the Gateway National Recreation Area at Fort Tilden , New York , for the 2016 edition of its ongoing series “ Rockaway “. The small building was deemed structurally unsafe in 2013 following Hurricane Sandy, which devastated the area, and is set to be demolished later this year. Before destruction, Grosse used a palette of reds, oranges, pinks and white influenced by the area’s sunsets to turn the building into an art installation. “ She uses a technique in which brightly colored paint is sprayed directly onto site-specific structures. In doing so, she incorporates both the architectural features of the space, and materials located in its immediate vicinity, such as sand, trees, sea grass and pavement ,” according to a project description. #KatharinaGrosse #Rockaway #Spraypaint

- Jas Charanjiva!
Jas , aka Jas Charanjiva , is a muralist born in the UK, raised in Toronto and SF, further evolved in NYC and now living in Mumbai. “In a place like India where people throw garbage and litter (often because there are no public garbage cans), I throw up art without permission. I don’t see why I can’t and shouldn’t. If the authorities tell me to stop, I’ll tell them to clean up the city first,” says the young lady. Her most well-known piece is called Don’t Mess With Me (better known on the streets as The Pink Lady ). She created her after the December 2012 fatal gang rape in Delhi. Jas is a self-taught artist. At the age of 12 while living in California she received her first professional skateboard and loved the art on the back of its deck. This led to her obsession with underground art. She often uses non-conventional characters in her work. Take a look at her Facebook account here . #JasCharanjiva #streetart

Her signature origami birds now cover the area of 2000 square meters, composing the largest urban mural ever made in the French capital. Realized in close collaboration with Mathgoth Gallery , the piece makes a singular work of public art that will embellish the town for a certain period of time. Each origami is painted after folding using a solution deemed “Maurigami” by Mademoiselle Maurice, making the pieces nearly indestructible. The piece took three weeks to complete, 500 liters of black paint, 15.000 origamis and 2.000 maurigamis. #mademoisellemaurice #mural #origamistreetart #streetart
