The woven wallet will come in Yellow, Black, or White with all three having an Orange liner like many of the other Porter and Head Porter products we see. All three wallets will be released on October 14th, 2008. via FLAGUE

Urban Abstract in Amsterdam


Urban Abstract in Amsterdam -
The work of Evan Hecox Brought to you by Mather Kunst and Reload Magazine

Urban Abstract in Amsterdam, Evan Hecox’s debut solo show in Amsterdam, is a continued exploration of ur- ban landscapes in locales as disparate as Berlin; Mexico City; Manatuk, Long Island; Tokyo; and of course, San Francisco. Though largely known for his work in the Skateboard industry, his fine art is independently brilliant and moves beyond the iconography of the industry. His extremely flattened landscapes amplify elements of pedestrian and sometimes mundane landscapes, elevating the ordinary to the sublime through form, color, and composition. Some will only recognize his work from the hundreds of skateboard decks he has designed. Those who have followed his work will have the chance to witness this mid-career work as it continually evolves.

Ghost Bridge at Blackfriars


Head down to Blackfriars Bridge after dark over the next few weeks and you’ll find that the old Blackfriars Railway Bridge, whose supports still remain in the water, is lit up with ghostly green lasers. The artwork is by Keith Bowler and forms part of Drift, a group exhibition by contemporary artists who have all created new works of art to be shown on the Thames.

MARK GONZALES - Megga America Communion Priest


I bought one of these a little while back, just after they were released. Haven't seen many about since and then this one popped up at FUSShop. It's a relatively low number (365 of 1000) and the best thing of all, it's reduced.

Mark Gonzales brings you the latest evolution of his Priest character, the Megga America Communion Priest. The figure itself stands 13 inches high and is fully mechanised to blow bubbles whilst giving communion.............

Gonz has hand engraved his signature and an edition number on all 1000 figures...

Comes complete with bubble solution...
