Ericailcane a.k.a. Erica il Cane is an Italian street artist whose work is pretty difficult to summarize – but let's say it mashes up Victorian children's book illustration, macabre machine/animal contraptions, political satire and existential angst. Blu is one of his close friends and a frequent collaborator. I just did a little writeup about him on my blog: commandax.blogspot.com/2009/01/ericailcanes-existential-menagerie.htmlEricailcane will his first L.A. solo show at Carmichael Gallery next Saturday, January 10th. www.ericailcane.org/Santa's Ghetto Bethlehem, 2007, Palestine Fame Festival 2008, Grottaglie, Italy "Lepus timidus" "La Visita" ("The Visit") "Cuce" ("Sewing") "Golem"

That top piece is magnificent. I love the expression on the wee fellas face not to mention his determination to enjoy a balloon, despite his own balloon keeping handicap. Here's one of mine, from last year's fame. Untiltled on canvas, 100cms x 80cms: There is an accompanying etching of a bee hanging above the bear. Took a few photos os some collabs with blu, will barras, dem and others in Bologna yesterday which I'll post later although I think I many already have posted some in the blu thread..

Don't miss your chance to see his work in person if you are in SF. I walked away very impressed after seeing his stuff for the Fame Festival. Showthread is here.

Is this a collaboration between Ericailcane & Blue & Esicf? No, its just Erica and Blu man. I am trying to get a collab sorted between the 3 of them tho, would literally be the best thing ever in my eyes..... I picked up a lovely escif drawing from his show with San at UP, havent got round to framing it yet tho.....
