Video: Primary Flight and Wynwood Street Art 2010

Basel this, art fair that. We're glad they exist, but basically, we're all about the streets. That's what kept us in Wynwood Thursday through Saturday. We made movies, drank beer, and rode bikes like maniacs. While the art world was busy pretending they were Wall Street, we tried to document...

Basel this, art fair that. We're glad they exist, but basically, we're all about the streets. That's what kept us in Wynwood Thursday through Saturday. We made movies, drank beer, and rode bikes like maniacs. While the art world was busy pretending they were Wall Street, we tried to document as much of the process of muralization of Wynwood as we could, mostly by Primary Flight.

Check our below video for work from some of the best graffiti and street artists from around the world. Much respect to MTN for their paint sponsorship. Even though the ozone layer is crying on Miami, and we're still swimming in aerosol, the artwork that came out of that cloud makes it all worthwhile. See ya next year.
