Niels 'SHOE' Meulman is one of the Dutch Graffiti legends who's been around since the late 70's. In 2007 he launched his 'calligraffiti' movement, a combination of caligraphy and graffiti. On March 20th he'll launch his book at the American Bookcenter in Amsterdam. Details here
Random order is an amazing show with the works of Erosie, Graphic Sugery, Zward and Bier & Brood. The show is in the Alley Guerilla gallery in Hasselt, Belgium. If you're in the neighborhood you should definitely stop by because it definitely looks worth while. More info here.
StencilhistoryX has chosen one of the pieces from Eelus' solo show, and I can say that they couldn't have picked anything better. The doors are closed, but this show will definitely be rememembered. From SHX:
"Eelus has come a long way since I first discovered his work. He featured at the Cans Festival a scene from the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn faced with a mean cat. He has since abandoned this anecdotal imagery for a universe that is not part of our world." Read More

I don't know much about Misterdarkboy, but appearantly he's been around for a while 'cause skills like the ones portrayed on these sneakers don't just fall out of the sky!
He teamed up with Molotow to do these kick-ass Supra Thunder sneakers made with a combination of spray-paint and the Molotow 'One-for-all' marker. Check out the vid down-below. More pics after the jump!
Amsterdam is a bit of a Museum, and not the modern kind. Also not the kind that gives Banksy the chance to make it his own. Just an old fashioned museum. Nothing wrong with that, unless you're trying to do something with contemporary/modern art. With the city's only big Contemporary museum closed 'till at least 2012 we have to get this form of art in smaller doses.That's why it's great to see that artists and agents are not standing still and keep on finding new ways to let it all flow to the public.
Another great production by Thias of the Photograff collectif. An amazing panorama of a wicked wall, almost as sick as the previous one. Done in Paris, France. You MUST see this one in big.
