Paris meets Japan for entertaining looking graffiti spraying.

Dazed and Confused wrote an article which notes Cony, Horfe and others from PAL crew as part of a loosely defined genre described as “Comic Abstraction.” As the author states, “Taken one way, the works are innocuous, colourful, abstract shapes. Turn back and they lurch, grimace and menace, Disney turned evil. Sortais is one of the finest examples of new Comic Abstraction, pushing it to new directions with an infectious energy.” 

Next week, the Parisian graffiti crew, PAL (Peace and Love), will be descending on New York for their exhibition in collaboration with artist Gorey at Klughaus Gallery. The show will feature work from members Horfe, Cony, Tomek, Saeio, Mosa, Esso, and Skub. The opening reception is on Saturday, May 11, 2013 from 6-10 p.m . at a pop up location located at 154 Stanton St. (@ Suffolk St.) New York, NY 10002. Be sure to RSVP at rsvp@klughaus.net.

Two perfect examples from Cony and Seb on how to paint something proper using only four colors. An unlikely match of styles that worked out well.

Gallery Goldstein in London recently held an exhibition showcasing the work of Paris-based artist, Cony. Closely associated with Horfe, the PAL crewmember creates loose illustrations reminiscent of old Walt Disney illustrations but with a darker and more contorted look. Included in the show was a toilet paper sculpture resembling a figure vandalizing the gallery walls in feces? Yes, that happened.
