Who Is Becca?
Wednesday July 22, 2009

Who is Becca?  She may not look like a typical street artist, but this true O.G. of the Los Angeles street art game began wheatpasting her whimsical drawings on the sides of buildings over a decade ago, long before the explosion of street art. After a hiatus, Becca is back on the scene and the subject of this new video.

 

“From the littered streets of Hollywood to the whitewashed walls of its hotspot galleries and cultural institutions, the reclusive artist known to a nation of enchanted spectators simply as ‘Becca’ has brought her tale of urban alienation and sly humor to life in the form of her innocent little girls and elegant ladies.” –Juxtapoz cover story, Jan/Feb 1999 Issue #18

Since that article was written over a decade ago, Becca has gone on to develop herself quite well in the art world, collected by such lumniaries as Leonardo Dicaprio, and Norman Reedus, and enjoying notoriety among fine art cognoscenti such as The Getty Family (Balthazar and Aileen in particular).

Nowadays, the trendiness of street art has escaped her career, despite her intense efforts to capture the public eye.  In this video, we introduce becca herself as well as 2 New Fine Art Print Releases to accompany her newest solo show at White Walls gallery in San Francisco. This is the exclusive online release of Becca’s newest work.
