Recoat’s 3rd Birthday

by Spacewood on Aug.06, 2010, under Art, Glasgow, Graffiti, Shout Out

Friday passed, saw the celebration of Recoat Gallery’s 3rd Birthday. To mark this special occasion, artist’s from their recent Fool’s Gold tour headed up to paint and exhibit some pieces. One of the highlights of the show came from Insa‘s and Inkie‘s massive piece in the alleyway. The background was painted four times and a series of photo’s taken by WCNS’s Alex Martin, transformed it into an animated GIF. Check out more of these grafitti gifs over at Insa’s blog. TenTen from Hamburg and Veuch from Belgium also jetted in, dodged the neds and painted the other half of the alley with their unique style and really completed the piece.

To complete the event, Insa painted a Mercedes Benz and this was offered as a prize through the raffle. Congratulations to Nick Mangos, who scored the winning ticket – not bad for £1.50! Can’t wait to see it driving around Glasgow.

We would like to offer a big congratulations to Amy and Ali (above), owners of Recoat. We wish them twice as much success for the next three years as the past three have provided. Be sure to check out the Fool’s Gold video tour below, made possible by them and new Glasgow productions company Pigeon Promotions.

There are also more photos from the night, over at the fashion blog, Style Scanner.
