I think it is safe to say that East London is brimming with cutting edge street art, all you have to do is look around:

These shots were taken on Bethnal Green Road, here is another wall piece from the same street!

b-shots: Miss Van Ladbroke Grove

// November 9th, 2009 // Comments // b-shots

We’re really digging French graffiti artist Miss Van’s work who recently had her Lovestrain exhibition at Stolen Space in London. Miss Van is renowned for the coquettish femine figures she calls her dolls or “poupées” and these gorgeous sultry beauties can be spotted around the world.

Sightings of authentic Miss Van originals are rare on the London streets and thus far, sadly, no sightings of new Miss Vans have been recorded. This one from Ladbroke Grove goes back a few years; go underneath the Ladbroke Grove tube bridge, walk on the right hand side going toward Kensal Green, take your first right, and on your left there she marks. Miss Van… in all her glory!

We’d love to see more more of her work on the streets of London – come back soon missy!
