Kulture Lab experiments with graffiti

Klgraffititwo The thing about culture is it can bore you on occasion.  The thing about Kulture Lab, is that it’s never, ever boring.

Klgraffitione This month’s installment, Kulture Lab curator and Dead Artist Jeff Olson’s “Penalty for Removal” installment of graffiti art, cunningly applied directly to walls (and including mounted canvasses) brought an infusion of youth, excitement, and really cool art into the space.  Joeski’s pieces blew me and the culture babe away, while James Hume’s Daniel Blue wearable art, Tim Kapler’s collaboration, and all the other divinely groovy works made us examine our definition of “art.”

Klgraffitithree I liked that the faces were new, the vibe was young, and the energy was infectious.

I loved that the art was amazing, whatever the genre definition was.

Bravo, Jeff, bravo, Dead dudes â€" bring on the next one!
