The term Cinema of Transgression was coined by Nick Zedd in 1985, describing the work of a group of people that lived in the, at that time,violently and drug infested Lower East Side of New York. They were filming super low budget movies with 8mm cameras full of sex and violence to shock the audience but there was also always a sense of subtle humor.
Twenty so-called street artists are participating in a show that pushes the boundaries of our relationship to sexuality in public space.
On show are the film Familae Erase and a selection of original Polaroids.

Es ist bestimmt interessant die Künstler jetzt auch mal bei der Arbeit zu sehen, anstatt immer nur die tollen fertigen Bilder. Die DVD ist vollgeknallt mit Live Action, Bombings, Wholecars, Streetbombing, Sketches und vieles mehr. Auf der ganzen Welt hat die Crew schon ihre Kunst verbreitet und wir freuen uns tierisch darauf ihre Erlebnisse bei uns zuhause gemütlich auf dem Fernseher anzuschauen.

Jaybo at MADE
Aug 01, 2011
IRIEDAILY art director and co-founder Jaybo is taking part in the second edition of "MADE presents MOMENTS" this coming Thursday. Check the video for the first edition with Aloe Blacc, Mihalj “MIKI” Kekenj and Jaybo.
Jaybo (at 2:32 to 6:00) painted a picture inspired by „I need a dollar“. Btw, the song is also the title song for HBO hipster series „How to make it in America“ starring Kid Cudi and skater Javier Nunez.
This time it´s Erykah Badu whose songs are going to be reinterpreted by Mihalj “MIKI” Kekenj and his string quintet.
Badu caused a megaruckus last year with the now notorious video for her song „Window Seat“.
The video was filmed at the exact same Dallas intersection where John F. Kennedy was killed in 1963.

Who or what is Berlin? - For someone who has never visited the city a difficult question to answer. For the Australian artist Anthony Lister, however, the unique "Berlin Experiment"! Anthony is part of the international urban art scene, specifically, street art, expressionism and pop art. He brought his art from Australia to New York and London, but Berlin has not been on his route so far. High Time! During the "Berlin Experiment", the artist gets a look-in to the city, will breathe its air and experience the people, within six days and nights. On June 9th, Anthony will use his new gained experience during a live painting at the Project Room in Berlin, hosted by Jaybo aka Monk.
As we previously reported, the Chinese artist and activist for human rights Ai Weiwei has been arrested by Chinese authorities. After six weeks without information about his residence, he was meanwhile allowed to receive visits from his wife. Officially, Ai Weiwei is still being imprisoned because of economic crimes, the Chinese government has not clarified, yet. The artist Jaybo aka Monk, who startet the Facebook campaign "Where is WEI WEI", placed a black prison cell in Berlin as a symbol of protest for free speech and against the prosecution of Ai Weiwei.
Since his arrival at the airport in Beijing on, the Chinese artist and an activist for better human rights in China, Ai Weiwei, has been arrested by the authorities. So far, neither his family nor his lawyers have heard of him. Present whereabouts unknown. The German cultural scene is shocked in consideration of this event. Ai Weiwei is regarded to be one of the most popular international Chinese artists but also a well known dissident. Lots of campaigns are concerned with this topic and try to promote this issue in public. You can participate online at “Where is Wei Wei”, supported among others by Jaybo aka Monk.
