We have reported about grafitti artist ABOVE - based in California - numerous times. He started his Grafitti Europe Tour in June where I talked to him about his projects in Copenhagen, Berlin, and Madrid. Now he sent us a great video from the Colosseum in Rome.

I found this "gladiator" in front of the Roman Colosseum where he was asking 5 € from tourists to take a photo with him. I bargained with him and got waaay more than i could of ever imagined.

Grafitti Artist ABOVE Starting Europe Tour

aloa — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 16:05:00 +0000

ABOVE, a very talented grafitti artist, just started his europe tour; trying to spread his messages all over europe's hot cities. Starting in Denmark, he spends the next 5+ months touring around Germany, Italy and lots of other great countries.

We've been showing you great work of ABOVE already, like his easter special or the "Union Jack"-Print. For more information read the exclusive Abduzeedo interview with ABOVE. He just left old Cali for fresh and new Europe and keeps on sending us great photographs and videos of his brand new projects.

His latest project is "The Naked Truth" - a street installation with grafitti stencils added - which you can find in the middle of Denmark's capital Copenhagen. I wonder if there are any Abduzeedo readers from Copenhagen who have already found it.

DEFCOGRAFIKS is an awesome designer/grafitti artist. I'll present you the digital artworks another time, because you'll be amazed by the grafitti design he made. You dont find a lot of these artworks in the streets (or probably not in the streets in Hamburg).

The full gallery of Lost Paints is here with part 1 and here with part 2. You should also visit his personal website. It's truely amazing.
