Pictures on Walls by Tim Yu
Pictures on Walls (POW) is a site devoted to exposing the latest from both up and coming and more well-established street artists by turning their work into limited edition screen prints sold on their site. They recently released new pieces by the likes of Beautiful Losers (Aaron Young's museum show turned artist collective) and everyone's perennial fave Banksy.
Another one of his sharp commentaries on social institutions, Banksy's new print, "Morons," pokes fun at the auction scene (below). Available in a Sepia tone, a few hundred prints are signed by the artist. Also, keep a look out for new prints by up and comers, Eric the Dog and Blu, due out soon.
In an attempt to better disperse these elusive prints, POW enforces a strict rule allowing only one print per household. Available for purchase from POW.

Banksy Versus Bristol Museum
by Ariston Anderson Street artist Banksy makes breaking the rules an artform, but his current exhibit, a legal installation of over 100 pieces at Bristol's City Museum & Art Gallery is surprising even his closest followers. Playing on earlier covert stunts that targeted the Tate and MoMA, in an unusual reversal, this time the institution welcomes the anonymous artist with open arms for his...

Swoon: Swimming Cities of Serenissima Fundraiser
Swimming Cities of Serenissima, international street and installation artist Swoon's floating art project, is the kind of undertaking that puts it in the creative ranks of other optimistically adventurous events like Burning Man. With a mission of inspiring hope in a time of over-consumption and economic despair, the collection of handcrafted sculptural vessels built from salvaged materials will make their way from Slovenia to...

Banksy in NYC: The Village Pet Store and Charcoal Grill
by Ariston Anderson The last time street artist Bansky did a piece in New York, it was a small painting of a cheap can of soup—his tribute to Andy Warhol—that he smuggled onto a gallery wall at the MoMa. As you might have already seen, Banksy recently put up three giant billboards in the Big Apple. All depicting the NYC mascot, one rat sports...

Banksy's Online "Store"
After the stellar success of his star-studded LA show (where Brad and Angelina walked away with quite a few pics) and setting a personal record at auction back in October 2006, Banksy is offering free downloads of some of his images for those that can’t afford to buy his art. No doubt a response to the many profiteers who've turned his images into unauthorized...

Banksy Hits NYC
The work of street artist, graffiti writer, and over all mischievously impressive prankster "Banksy", never ceases to amaze me--but this time he really hit a home run. Banksy hit New York's most famous museums, dressed as a British pensioner. He entered the Brooklyn Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art (shown above), and the Museum of Natural History, carrying some unusual works to install. He...
