Paint Club Switzerland Video!

On 2nd september 2011, we partecipated in the "Paint Club" Swiss competition at the "Rok" club in Luzern (CH), which consisted in an "art battle" between three teams of artists (2 artists in every team). With a subject decided just before the start ("BlockParty"), we had ninety minutes to create a painting (improvising) using acrylics and markers.

In the end, two judges and the audience chose our painting as the winner, and then we got the opportunity to participate in the European finals of the "Paint Club" in Berlin, that will probably be in 2012.

By clicking HERE you can see a short video about the performance.

The video is filmed by Andrea Todaro (http://vimeo.com/todaro) and edited by us.  The song is "Traffic Cars" by Professor Kliq (http://www.professorkliq.com/ ), and here you can find more details about the PAINT CLUB (http://the-paint-club.com/).

The Last Tea T-Shirt!

Our new t-shirt design is now on Threadless, and for the next 7 days it will be there to be voted,  shared and commented. If it will reach enough votes and if the Threadless team will like it, our design will be printed as t-shirt and sold from Threadless (and we will win a prize too!).

"The Last Tea" is a vintage, black-humorous, elegant and sweet-flavoured design. Printed in 2 colors (on many possible t-shirt background colors), it will immediately refresh you and the atmosphere around you (or it will probably cool it… :-P).

Look at it HERE and if you like it, please vote it, share it, comment it, and check the "as Tee" box on the top right.  :-) Thank you so much!!

Unlucky Munnies Series!

The "Unlucky Munnies" is our new series of 4" munny customs (Kidrobot). Two of them were already part of the first projects for the Munnyworld Megacontest 2011, but due to time constraints we decided to make only the "Vampirized". Given its success (awarded "Best Minimalist Design"), we decided to make the remaining two and expand the series with other new ideas.

So the series "Unlucky Munnies. In the wrong place, at the wrong time" is mainly made on 6 Munnies (Kidrobot) and then accompanied by other characters of the same group (Trikky, Bub, Foomi).
These unfortunate DIY toys have found themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time, and therefore were "Vampirized", "Werewolfed", "Zombified", "Facehugged", "Assimilated" and choose the "Dark Side" of the Force.

The "Vampirized" is a twin of the winner one, maybe bitten during the night by the same vampire too. The "Werewolfed" was infected by the scratch of a werewolf (this happens when you leave a Munny unattended on the window sill). "Zombified" is a living corpse of a Munny, gradually decaying and hungry for Munny-flesh. "Facehugged", "Assimilated" and "Dark Side" were Space travellers, but also in deep Space you can be really unfortunate: so the first one was attacked by an Alien's facehugger, the second one met the Borgs and the third one was too angry and scared and a Sith probably persuaded him.

You can see more about the "Unlucky Munnies" HERE.

Smart Painting Video!

During this summer we had a lot of different things to do, and this is just one of them! During an event in june we were asked to create a painting on a "Smart" car in 2-3 hours. So now we edited a a short video, filmed by us and Andrea Todaro, which shows our performance. 

You can see the video HERE.

The song we used is "Built to Last" by Fall Walk Run.

Making of The Daughter of the Sea!

We finally made the making of video of the sculpture we realized for Costa Cruise's ship "Costa Favolosa", inaugurated in july 2011. 

"The Daughter of the Sea" is based on the theme "Ondine", the water nymph from the mythology. The sculpture, a little bit different from our usual style, was realized with different media, both for the shell and for the girl, and then casted in bronze and refined at the artistic foundry "Rimart" in Senago (MI, Italy).
For the video we used pictures and videos from many different cameras, mobile phones and so on. The song is "At the Mall" by Emerald Park.

You can watch the video HERE (available on Vimeo and Youtube).

Lack of inspiratione

This is a strange summer here in Switzerland, it's raining too much. If it should never stop, how could we continue create as we use to do? :-P

"Lack of inspiratione" is an underwater video by Andrea Todaro and us. With Nevercrew (Christian Rebecchi & Pablo Togni), Andrea Todaro and Jivka Nacevska. The song is "Structure of a Revolution" by Icon Girl Pistols.

New website!

It's finally ready and online our new website nevercrew.com!

We decided to create a new one for many reasons: sometimes we like to change, we desired to show more and to communicate more, the old one was funny and stylish but not enough user-friendly and easy to update.

In our new website now we have 4 sections: Paintings, with our walls, murals, graffiti, canvases, and more; Designs, with graphics, objects and our series of "spaces"; Art toys, with our own production toys, our customs and our "Hangselm"paper-toy; Video, with our videos, making of of our artworks and video about us. There are also more informations about us (About us, Contacts),a  store, and the MBox (memories box), where we show random picture about us, our past, our works, and so on.

Moreover, we added descriptions and related links for every work, more connections with the social networks (to share our work or follow us, if interested) and we also changed the style of this blog (as you can see).

In our website, we made the graphical, artistic and conceptual part, but the entire structure was programmed by Igor Kovacevic (m4tricol.com), a professional programmer and developer of websites, blogs, mobile applications, templates, and so on.
