Street artist Madame Moustache’s Paris exhibition opens. A vernissage-cum-soirée with Madame (Moustache) at clothing shop, d’Hotel Manufacture, last night and a meeting of two of Paris’ most talked about wheatpaste street artists. Madame wears no moustache, rather, she is feminine and attractive in tight denim jeans. Fred le Chevalier, the first knight of Paris street art, a fan, was also on hand, giving support – both artists currently working hardest at decorating Paris’ public spaces.
The intent of these photos, taken by Richard Beban & Paris Play, is to honour Madame’s stylistic conceit for the black and white in her artwork. Some of the photos are by Guetteur Urbain.

Street Art : les collages truculents de Madame Moustache. Peut-être avez-vous déjà croisé sur les murs de Paris, les collages truculents de Madame à la signature moustachue transgenre. Depuis un an et demi, elle investit les quartiers qui lui sont chers le Marais, Montmartre, Belleville, Ménilmontant, Oberkampf. Elle part à la conquête graduelle de la ville, territoire d’intervention, réservoir créatif et argument artistique.
Pour les artistes de street art, il s’agit de reconfigurer l’espace urbain à leur mesure, nettoyer cet environnement soi-disant public que ce sont appropriés les firmes privées, les grands groupes et refaçonner la vision esthétique imposée par les institutions. L’art urbain est un facteur de mutation de l’aire de la cité au même titre que l’évolution naturelle de la ville. Art contextuel qui propose une formalisation inédite de l’expression créative. Les œuvres de Madame sont pour la plupart de grands formats en noir et blanc qu’elle ponctue de peinture rouge au pochoir. Madame Moustache. Street Art : Julien "Seth" Malland, le globe-painter. WASTED TALENT. Sneak-Art : Sneakers, Street Art, Life & Style. The Art of Jim Karanik | Spaceblues. How exactly does one wake up one day and say, “Hey, I think I’d be good at drawing on peoples’ skin?” I mean, it’s one thing to believe in your artistic abilities and to think of yourself as a fairly talented individual.
But tattooing is a whole different animal–you can’t screw up, you can’t always create the work you want, and you can’t just throw away the work you don’t like. Tattooing is an art form not like any other. It’s permanent, and it takes a unique individual to find perfection it such an obscure art form. If you’re looking for that individual, look no further than Denver tattoo artist Jim Karanik. Jim took to drawing and doodling at a very young age, and he says that his love of drawing led him to pursue a career in tattooing. Jim met Willie at a Long Island beach shop, and the shop owner let him hang around the shop on weekends to do a little self-teaching. But being an up-and-comer in the tattoo world isn’t so pleasant.
