This month’s PaperMonster’s Favorite Things cover everything that is BIG including giant legs, giant faces, and ever bigger spray paint caps. First on the list comes something that I never thought I would see: A Giant Spray Cap CHAIR (">HERE) which is sure to pull out all the stops. Gold Coin’s (HERE) new Summer 09 line looks fantastic and one of my favorite pieces from the collection is the “Stick Up” tee which will soon be turned into a vinyl toy. After the tee we see two wonderful artists all about scale and beauty. First we have JR’s beautiful new piece show at Paris’ Emanuel Perrotin Gallery and it is followed by Insa’s most recent art show in collaboration with Nike. These two artists are truly pioneers of their respective genres and every single time I view one of their works I feel the urge to create. Lastly, as more news comes from the new Iron Man 2 movie I ran into this incredible trailer of an Iron Man Anime movie which just blew me away.

This past Saturday I headed over to 100B/Art Primo Store Opening with Ren. On the way to the opening we found a GEM!! We stopped over at Vanessa’s Dumpling House on 118 Eldridge St
(between Broome St & Grand St) and this place was fantastic. The menu was huge and the prices were super low. So low Ren and I ate like royalty for 8 bucks!! 8 Bucks!! After that we headed over to 100B Forsyth also between Boome and Grand and the line was heavy to get into the Art Primo Store (HERE). Once in the door it was pure magic. The spot sell every and any type of graffiti supply you need including: KRINK, MTN2G, Molotow and Molotow High Pressure (personal favorites), MTN94, Shirts, Markers (industrial, on the run, and Molotow markers), Mops, Stickers, DVDs, magazines, and books. If you are a writer, artist, or just love graffiti this is a great place to check out and have a wonderful time. Even I (PaperMonster) had to pick up some supplies.
The store hours are Wednesday 3-9pm and Friday 3-9pm and by appointment.

Catch some images below::

Vanessa’s Dumpling House: HERE

Look at the inside!! Pure Magic.

Plenty of gear.
**MAJOR RULE: To by spray paint or markers you must be 18+ years old or older with ID**
Look at the amount of cans for days!!
These ladies know their graff supplies. If you ask for a Molotow Grasshoper they know EXACTLY what you are talking about. Thanks ladies!!
Don’t even try to rak anything because at the end of the day you will run into him owning that door!
HUGE thanks to Are1 (owner of the shop) and DJ Tony Tone of the incredible Cold Crush Brothers for a great time. The entire shop is just phenomenal and very well done. Enjoy!!
Could not leave the store empty handed. They gave out some wonderful free goodies for everyone who came out. Many thanks!!
After the shop headed over to Central Park for a beauiful walk. Amazing views all over.
