DALATA - Abstract Street Art from Brazil

Brazilian artist Andre Muniz Gonzaga aka Dalata has taken street art to another level. His artwork revolves around the idea of broken and forgotten pieces of nature, but puts a positive spin on it by creating abstract art.
He breathes a new life into these broken and forgotten pieces by using their brokenness to show their fragile yet strong potential for beauty.
For Dalata, street art is not just drawing on the walls of buildings or on concrete. Street art is more than that. It gives him a chance to showcase the idea that art can be found anywhere -even in the worst and most broken conditions. With his art work, Dalata has certainly given a new meaning to “a whole new world”.

CRIN - Graphical & Abstract Street Art

Some astonishing artwork by Crin (born in Italy - 1979), a graffiti & graphic artist  based in Berlin. A infinite weaving of colours which documents the harmony and artistic expression of this very talented street artist. Brilliant colours aggressively applied on walls. 
A spontaneous blend of design, computer graphics and streetart, a perfect mixture of contemporary applied arts in representing the maximum self expression of art.

ABSTRACT STREET ART BY AUGUSTINE KOFIE

When you first view Augustine Kofie’s artwork you immediately are struck with the skill and intensity of his technique. You can understand his love of process and structure. With strong interest in architecture, form and shape of typography, 1960’s iconography, contemporary music and street culture, Augustine constructs a dialogue in his work that is not always easily revealed. His collages and assemblages are layers upon layers of development. His work is as much unintentional mastery as it is intentional order. The imagery not only leaps out at you, but also draws you into his conversation.
Growing up in Los Angeles and very active in the West Los Angeles Graffiti scene since the mid 1990’s, Kofie’One, as he became to be known, is a skillful and well respected street artist. After viewing one of his paintings and assemblages you may begin to recognize his distinct style in one of his many murals scattered around Los Angeles. Drawing on his craft of lettering he has developed an abstraction that goes beyond the traditional 3 dimensions of our known world into a crafted world that builds on itself. Choices like his color pallet recall a vintage sensibility. He has the innate ability to combine appreciation of the past and his vision of a developed future.
Kofie’s mechanically detailed line-work, organically complex structures and heavy earth-tone palette develop into a multi-layered, architecturally inspired world that is a vintage futuristic realm not subject to gravity.

Abstract 'Street Arting' by KEF




Born in Aachen, Germany in 1989, KEF is working his way up with his one-of–a-kind street-art paintings and abstract works.
In his youth he painted traditional graffiti – which became to monotone for him after discovering street art. In 2005 KEF developed two very unique characters with which he invaded the European street art scene. In 2009 KEF transformed his two characters into more abstract figures – which he then painted onto a variety of different surfaces or as large scale murals.
