Brooklyn-based street artists FAILE (Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller) partnered up with the New York City Ballet! FAILE dreamed up an exhibition to launch The New York City Ballet Art Series, which will be on display during the May 29 performance. It’s a pretty sick deal for only $29 and every member of the audience will “receive a limited-edition work made specifically for this event.” For more information, click here.

Hawaii’s annual street and graffiti show, POW WOW (which took place mid-February) resulted in some amazing murals. Designed to bring artists together from across the globe, POW WOW provides a space for creative freedom, where people can watch artists in action. At the end of the week, walking through the neighborhood is like walking through an outdoor art gallery. POW WOW founders have certainly started an awesome, engaging show that has continually drawn in top artists. One of our favorites is the bird mural by DAL. For more on POW WOW, click here.

Kobra completed a 180-foot, colorful art work of Niemeyer in the financial district of Sao Paulo. For more on this, click here (photo courtesy of Design Taxi).
