Ozmo Wall Paintings at Pure Evil Gallery

— December 4, 2008 — Art & Design
Italian painter and street artist Ozmo's amazing wall paintings are currently showing at the Pure Evil Gallery in the street art haven of Shoreditch in London.

These stunning black-and-white images are an eclectic mix of pop culture, resistance references and traditional Italian sculptures and figures. They are all painted with black felted pens. It took the artist a whole week to decorate the walls of the gallery.

I especially like the little mob of people wearing 3-D glasses and the Cabineri (local police) on patrol driving a Mini. The exhibition runs until 2009.
