Klughaus x The Seventh Letter Trucks in Miami for Art Basel 2012

Posted on December 11, 2012 by klughaus

Klughaus Gallery was in Miami for Art Basel showcasing some of the top graffiti artists on our fleet of Klughaus trucks. The artists who were a part of this project included: RIME MSK, TOPER, OBLVN, GOREY, DCEVE SMART, VOR DBI, STAE2, ALOY MSK, KAPUT VTS, LARGE VTS, ANTHONY LISTER, WITNES/TYKE, GREVE and last but not least an OIL (RIP) tribute by JUNE, DZEE and friends. Throughout the event, live music was provided by MR. GREEN and MECA on the drums on top of the trucks!

The concept of this Klughaus project was to showcase the true nature of “graffiti.” Graffiti writers dedicate a lot of time and effort into their work while not expecting any monetary rewards. There is also no guarantee how long the work will last (sometimes gone within hours.) With the forced cycles of graffiti in this project, every one of the artists painted with the mindset that their artwork would be gone within 24 hours (and running less time the longer it took them to paint.) This forced a “purist” mentality upon the artists but it did not stop any of the artists from producing top-notch quality work!

The mobile nature of these trucks allowed us to bring the artwork to life while rolling down the main streets of Wynwood and then over to Miami Beach (where most of the artwork was contained inside of galleries.) This “Out-of-the-box-truck” approach definitely turned heads when we paraded down NW 2nd Street in Wynwood Saturday night (Teen Wolf style) with drummers & a bunch of people on top of a freshly painted truck by RIME & TOPER. Miami police eventually shut us down but it was fun while it lasted! Stay tuned for a video of the project but in the mean time, check out some of the photos below:

Klughaus New York Trucks in Miami this week

Posted on December 4, 2012 by klughaus

Klughaus Gallery is making its debut in Miami this week representing for New York! Look out for several of our box trucks rolling around the city featuring pieces by some of the nation’s top graffiti artists including RIME, TOPER, DCEVE, WANE, SP, CES, OBLVN, STAE2, GOREY and more…

The golden era of graffiti was founded on the mobile canvases of subway cars in New York City. Unfortunately, not all of us were old enough to witness the rolling stock of vibrant colors coming to life as the art-covered trains rattled through the city in the 70s and 80s. Today, there is still a thriving sub-culture of dedicated “clean train” painters but their artwork is often cleaned immediately and rarely exposed to the public.This week in Miami, Klughaus is looking to bring back the concept of these urban, rolling canvases with our mobile installation. As the conventional Art Basel exhibits take place indoors, we’ll be permeating the streets of Miami with our live art and rotating canvases. Some of our trucks will be equipped with a sound system and we’ll also be stationed near various events and walls in progress.

On Saturday, Dec 8th, RIME and TOPER will be painting one of the trucks live at a to-be-determined location in Wynwood as Mr. Green from “Live From The Streets” makes an epside/live beats onsite.

To stay up to date on our locations throughout the festival (Dec 6 – Dec 9), be sure to follow us on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook as we broadcast our movement throughout the long weekend. (@klughaus)
