A mixture of art, events & different places we’ve visited that were interesting enough to share. A day in the life of the Sldrs.

Avengers Initiative S.T.A.T.I.O.N.

Honestly, I went here months ago but figured with the movie dropping tomorrow, this would make for the perfect time to drop a blog post on it. If you’ve never heard of it, basically it’s an exhibition for your inner Avengers nerd. There’s tons of the movie costumes and interactive stations like the Iron Man “First Flight” simulator (which allows you to pilot an Iron Man suit), or The Hulk’s Gamma lab (create a slide of of Bruce Banner’s blood and watch how the cells drastically change when he become’s The Hulk) to name a few. It’s pretty cool if you’re a hardcore or even just a casual fan. Sadly, they’re incredibly strict when it comes to taking pictures, so there were only so many I could get without security noticing. (There’s really way too much security. It’s weird.) Either way if you’re curious, I’ve posted a link to purchase tickets below:

Secret Walls: Wizard Skull vs Coseb1 | Adrien K vs Mastro

scrtwls

As always, I try to make it to the Secret Walls events here in NYC whenever they take place. For those who are unfamiliar, it’s basically a 90min art competition. Artists can use brushes, markers, etc, however, no color. When time’s up, it’s up to the lovely crowd to pick a winner. For the first time since I’ve been going, it turned out to be a double header.

Originally a triple, but I think Zukie wasn’t around at the time. When he finally did show up, Cosbe1’s decision to cut into the canvas (although it was a pretty dope idea) ended up ruining the paper for the other contestants and cut the competition down a bit. None the less, it was a great time. I recommend anyone into art to at least stop by and check it out. Usuaully I do a video, but this time kept it short with some pics of the artists in action. Take a look below.
