adidas Originals' I ART JOBURG Newspapers

adidas Originals ‘I ART JOBURG,’ was a month long project curated by ANDPEOPLE that introduced five world renowned street and fine artists to the heart of Maboneng Precinct in Johannesburg to paint large-scale murals across the area in September 2012. Artists Remed (Madrid), Steve ‘ESPO’ Powers (New York), ROA (Belgium) as well as local artists Falko (Cape Town) and Cameron Platter (Durban) headlined the project alongside legendary street culture photographer Martha Cooper (New York) who collaborated with each artist, documenting the month long process.

Working with the ANDPEOPLE team, I designed and curated the content for two issues of I ART JOBURG newspapers that were available for free to the public as an update to what was going on with the project.
