TWENTY FIRST CENTURY CITY


To celebrate street artist Ben Eine getting all fancy and having his work in Barak Obama's house we've mocked up our own EINE piece. Cool hu?

If you read, watch or listen to the news you've probably heard that David Cameron gave Obama a painting that reads TWENTY FIRST CENTURY CITY. The next day EINE took to our local streets and painted a piece on Hackney road reading THE STRANGEST WEEK. Below we captured a rare image of the artist at work.

Opinion is divided on all this; some people think it's brilliant, some people think it's not cool when David Cameron buys your art. Either way we think it must be pretty fun graffing up London town, and then name-dropping the PM when the cops show.

There's no shortage of EINE work in the area. Check out this Google Map showing some of the alphabet pieces HERE.
