‘MAUSOLÉE’ SOWAT & LEK . Intervention + Exhibition + Book . Paris
Imagine an abandoned four storey supermarket in the North of Paris occupied by squatters, then deserted again. On August 12, 2010, French graffiti artists Lek and Sowat discovered the place much to their delight. For a year, in the greatest of secrets, both artists continuously wandered in this 430,000 sq ft monument to paint murals and organize an illegal artistic residency. They invited forty French graffiti artists to collaborate, from the first to the last generation of the graffiti movement. Together they built a Mausolee, a temple dedicated to their disappearing underground culture, slowly being replaced by street art and its global pop aesthetics. Due to the nature of the place, very few people have seen it in person.
On 12 April Lek and Sowat will share their experience through an installation and video. See pics and more info after the jump.

SIXEART . Solo at N2 Galería . Barcelona, Spain
SIXEART – Cosmovisión Andina y los Hijos del Inti
Solo Show at N2 Galería. November 17th, 7pm.
Enrique Granados 61. Barcelona, Spain.
“Cosmovisión Andina y los Hijos del Inti” is an approximation to the ancient cultures of the Andes, full of colour, wisdom and misticism. Sixeart uses his own pictoric language, and reinvents a new idea of ancestral connections.
Sixeart is back on show at N2 Galería, where some of the discerning public found out about his work a year before the Tate Modern discovered him. We can say Sixeart has been fortunate. Although this is true, it’s backed by many years of work and selfless dedication to his art, and, above all, to his singular and unpredjudiced style.
The conceptuality that Sixeart has put into his work has stirred Casa América’s interest in Madrid. Plaza Cibeles will host a purpose-built installation at the same time as ARCO and later, in March, an exhibition with all of his latest work.
