New 3D Dface

Awesome new 3D wing from Dface hits Melrose.

We knew Dface was in town last month for his solo show in Los Angeles, but this looks like a new piece that has just popped up in the last week.

Awesome stuff. Love how it pops off he stop sign.

Up with slaps from TSF, Wicker, Eles, Avik, Dump, Buick, Destroy All Design, Phobik, The Seventh Letter and a few more.

Going Nowhere Fast (And Lovin It!)

Dface painted this mural a few weeks ago for his show 'Going Nowhere Fast' at the Corey Helford Gallery. We posted pics at the time, but the mural, thankfully, is going nowhere fast, and we just snapped this shot, and its arguably our favorite, so we thought it was worth posting.

Dfaced-Half A Gallon of Dripping Paint Street Art

Interesting piece of 3d street art featuring half a gallon of paint that has been chopped in half and then affixed to the side of this electrical box. And very professional job, as with blue drips added on site so that there is paint dripping from the piece to the ground below.

Very impressive. Not sure who the artist is, but it might be Dface? As you can see with the mural in the background, this was placed out in front of the Dface mural at the Corey Helford Gallery where he had his last show.

Up with stickers from Dface and Bankrupt along with two tags we can't make out.

Dface Gets Winged on Melrose-3D Street Art

New piece of 3d street art from Dface on Melrose, featuring one of his signature winged lightning bolts.

Too bad we didn't see it before it got buffed, but it looks like it used to be a deep yellow before getting painted over with a bland tan paint.

Cool stuff. Dig it~

Dface- Night Strikes

Dface holds it down in all the facets of the street game.

And in front of his clean Liechtenstein themed mural, Dface also slaps up a 'Night Strikes' sticker.

Dface R.I.P.

After the Dface Tombstone next to Charlie Sheen's Star on Hollywood Blvd found a new home, we still went by to try and see what the piece had looked like.

The tombstone was long gone, and the only thing left was this big pile of rubble.

R.I.P.

Hooked Up- Dface

Dface hooked us up fat at his show last night.

Dface was cool from the time when we met him, and we told him that we run MELROSEandFAIRFAX he reached into his pocket grabbed a stack of slaps, told us to help ourselves, and he offered to tag em up.

Such a chill dude. Would love to kick it for longer, smoke a spliff, and hear some stories about art.

But for now we are super excited to just have some stickers from one of the biggest names on the worldwide stage.

Thanks for the hook up, Dface!

Dface in LaLa Land - Pics from 'Going Nowhere Fast' (pt 2/2)

Andy and Marilyn got Dfaced.

More pics from the Dface art show 'Going Nowhere Fast'.

Actually, the Andy and Marilyn (and Michael Jackson was running around somewhere, too) got done in the Dface style not by Dface, but by a movie production company. They were at the show to advertise and try to drum up excitement for their makeup and design. It is a big compliment to street art, and when a company is coming to a show to advertise what they do, it goes to show that the scene is a focal point for the movers and shakers of the art world.

It seems the show was a big success, and just based on a sales list we picked up midway through the show, it looked like over a couple hundred thousand dollars in sales had been made. Congrats to Dface and the Corey Helford Gallery.

Dface says he loves LA and said he would like to move here. Hope someday he does~

Dface in LaLa Land - Pics from 'Going Nowhere Fast' (pt 1/2)

Had a great time at Dface's 'Going Nowhere Fast'. Cool art. Cool people.

Some might say better than Banksy~

The show was packed by the time we got there, but apparently most of the night it was so jam packed that the entire Corey Helford Gallery was literally shoulder to shoulder.

Its easy to see why. It was a cool show full of lots of dope art, and cool people.

The art was all super clean and presented very well. We especially liked the chopped books and spray tip butterflies. Not to mention the Dface carving knives.

We got the chance to meet Dface and Eine, two legends in the world of street art and graffiti. They were both great, and seemed to be down to earth, genuine people. Like someone had mentioned on the blog earlier, Dface was a super cool guy. And when I said that it was really huge that he was here, and he was one of the top artists in the game, up along with Banksy, and he replied with a smile "Some might say better."~

Great show, and great to meet you. Thanks for the art, Dface. Stay up~

Cheating and Winning!

Dface's 'Cheat Death' has found a new home.

There wasn't any cheating involved other than the headstone.

And after the Dface Tombstone on Hollywood Blvd next to Charlie Sheen's star on the Walk of Stars fell over, we got an email from Ziggy asking if maybe he should take it?

Since it had already been knocked over and the Hollywood Clean Team rolls through the area every morning to clean everything, it was unlikely that it would last past morning, and we told Ziggy that it would be an awesome thing to have and go for it!

So Ziggy scored the tombstone--all 400-500 pounds of it. Literally. You can see how massive the piece is next to the doorway in the picture, and as it is straight cement, it is quite heavy.

Congrats to Ziggy on getting an original piece of Dface street art. Winning!

Dface Tombstone Scavenger Hunt

There are at least two more Dface Tombstones on the streets of Los Angeles. Click the jump for more

We just got word from MELROSEandFAIRFAX contributor Dale that there he met Dface while Dface was casting the tombstones. Dale says Dface is a "really, really nice guy", and he also sent us this pic of the tombstones getting ready for the streets.

So we know there are more than the two we've seen so far. And then, we just saw the night time locations of two more tombstones (pictured), but from what is shown in the picture, we can't tell where these are at.

Its not Banksy, but hell, Dface is up there. And we'd love to see a successful scavenger hunt with people finding the locations for these Dface pieces.


***Big thanks to Dale for the pic of the tombstones, and s.butterfly for the shots of the street pieces***
