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.
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.

My newest show is a collective that will combine photography with original pieces by street artists both Italian and non to celebrate the past year of urban art in Rome. Check out more info on my blog.
This is for all you sticker heads out there. A wicked sticker show comping up in Phoenix, AZ (USA). Start getting your stuff over there and be part of the goodnesss!
Prepare yourself for a great show from Orticanoodles. Galerie Itinerrance will open the first show in Paris of the Milanese Duo. The opening night is march 11th. Check out more info about the show on StencilhistoryX.
The frost is starting to break over here in the UK, so it must be time to get ready for the Spring/Summer painting season. This, of course, means it's time for Upfest.
Last year there were 150 artists for the event, and it sounds like they're already over that number for registrations already.
Having been to a few Upfest events as a spectator/non-painting helper person, I can attest that it's a great time even without a can of paint in your hand, so worth putting in your calendars now.
More goodies from Unusual Image: The Grafik Warfare - Hazardous Waste Show! Something I've been looking forward to see some work from ever since I saw the flyer. Unusual Images has some nice pics of some of the work. Check 'em out after the jump or right here.
Seems Laser 3.14 keeps on beeing busy! His solo show @ the Art Kitchen in Amsterdam isn't finished yet, and his new show is already up soon! Bit of the press release (which promises it'll be an interesting show):

Absolutely amazed by the works of UK based street artist Eelus at his new show; The colour out of space. Eelus did an awesome combination of his more traditional work together with geometrical figures which makes for an interesting collaboration of lines. The show is still open 'till the 6th of march, so if you're in London, check it out. More info on the show on Eelus' website. Check some more pics after the jump. Pics by Unusual Image.
