Ben Turnbull
In an age when sneering at the USA is a popular, vulgar pastime amongst the cultural elite, Ben Turnbull says – and this may surprise you judging by his art – “I actually love America. I want to be there.” Ben’s love isn’t ...
Blu
The offensive element of street art can be under-rated; after all, who has not raised a chuckle at a well-placed and esoteric spurting phallus. Blu’s work is no colourful collage of youthful self-expression, but it’s obviously many ...
Borf
While some of us can be instantly suspicious of bourgeois anti-establishment work, it’s easy to love rebellion when it comes from the very young – and when there’s no doubt of dedication to the cause. Borf was/is a phenomenon in his ...

David Choe
Rarely do we see a street artist with the skills and complexity of David Choe. Rapidly establishing himself as one of the greats of the genre, Choe is compellingly repulsive. His complex and pulchritudinous pictures, seductive, appealing and ...
Erica Il Cane
Nature is red in tooth and claw. Perhaps this is why animals undertaking sentient activities, as seen in the Walter Potter taxidermy collection featuring ‘The Kitten’s Wedding’ and ‘The Death and Burial of Cock Robin’ ...
Faile

Ian Francis
Ian Francis’ hyper-intelligent, multi-layered, work is intricate in form and content. It’s effortlessly uncomfortable whilst at the same time dramatically appealing; seemingly parochial yet peppered with pan-national references. Figures ...
Invader
This artist is responsible for perhaps the most recognizable street art stunt of the last decade. In a planet-wide war of attrition, the pixilated expansionist aliens from Toshiro Nishikado''s infamous 1978 arcade game Space Invaders stalked the ...
Jonathan Yeo
Jonathan Yeo taught himself to paint in his early twenties and carved out a career in the nineties painting pop stars, royalty and Russian mafia. He became a big noise in portraiture, receiving commissions from the likes of Erin O’ Connor, ...
JR
From France, JR’s work is as good as unique. His regular modus operandi is to bill-post giant, unexpected, monochrome photographs in positions of high visibility - including rooftops, church windows and along the sides of buses. The work has ...

Mark Jenkins
Mark Jenkins' absurdist sculptures are always witty and mostly appealing. But, inevitably, they prompt uncomfortable and nauseating questions human beings would really rather not deal with. How can we be sensitive and playful yet so ruthlessly ...
Miranda Donovan
Miranda Donovan’s three-dimensional panels, some almost a metre and a half tall, are unique in the field of graffiti art. “I work around the five centimetre depth of the panels too, blurring the boundaries between object, sculpture and ...
Mode 2
The thinking man of the British graffiti movement has recently returned from self-exile in Paris. Like seminal comic 2000AD if it had ever managed to get laid, Mode's work is immediately refreshing due to its lack of posturing and antagonism, ...
Paul Insect
Paul Insect's refined interpretation of visceral subject matter has thrust him towards fame in the past year, with a noted collector absorbing his entire? ‘Bullion’ exhibition. Equally, Paul’s work has evolved considerably. ...
Sage Vaughn
At Lazarides we admittedly (albeit sheepishly) pride ourselves on the unconventional approach of our artists. California-based Sage Vaughn is yet another one. Whilst his pictures use motifs often seen around this way - animals in Vaughn’s ...
Stanley Donwood
Stanley Donwood was described by GQ magazine as "the Terry Gilliam of Radiohead", which he hated, saying "a soundbite is a statement designed to preclude intelligent thought". The powerful visual identity he's created for the band is considered so ...

Vhils
Our youngest artist, the already prolific Portuguese-born Alexandre Farto’s range spans from collage to portraiture. Of late he’s taken to creating works purely from in situ materials, taking Vandalism as art to its logico ad absurdum conclusion. ...
Zevs
Zevs is not only one of the most political artists within Lazarides’ already partisan roster, he is becoming seen as one of the more inspired practitioners of mischievous street work. His Liquidated Logos series, first displayed at the Soho ...
