‘Loving Vincent’ paints a sincere cinematic portrait BY BRANDY MCDONNELL For LOOKatOKC
T
housands of paintings come to dazzling life in “Loving Vincent,” an animated period piece that must be one of the most visually striking and innovative films in cinema history. Considered the world’s first fully oil-painted feature film, “Loving Vincent” is a fictionalized biopic of legendarily brilliant artist and troubled soul Vincent van Gogh told in a way that uniquely showcases his instantly recognizable masterworks. Writer-directors Dorota Kobiela and Hugh Welchman spent six years on the Polish-U.K. labor of love, and it isn’t hard to see why: Every one of the film’s 65,000 frames is an actual oil painting hand-painted by one of 125 professional oil painters. “Loving Vincent” was first shot as a live-action film. It was then hand-painted over frame-by-frame,

with the artists not only emulating van Gogh’s distinctive style but actually reproducing specific paintings. There are 94 of the Dutch master’s paintings featured in forms close to the originals, plus 31 additional van Gogh works that are substantially or partially featured. Even more impressive, the painters managed to create cinematic portraits that are not only recognizable as van Gogh’s subjects but also as the actors playing the characters in a sort of detective story based on the controversial circumstances surrounding van Gogh’s tragic death at age 37. Although it has been widely accepted that the disturbed artist committed suicide, Pulitzer Prize-winning biographers Steven Naifeh and Gregory White Smith made the case in their 2011 best-seller “Van Gogh: The Life” that the painter may actually have been shot by a teenage boy.

REVIEW CONTINUED FROM 4 Set in 1891, about a year after van Gogh’s death, the film follows aimless, hard-drinking brawler Armand Roulin (Douglas Booth), who is dispatched by his father, postman Joseph Roulin (Chris O’Dowd), to deliver a long-lost letter from Vincent van Gogh (Robert Gulaczyk) to his beloved brother Theo (Cezary Lukaszewicz) in Paris. Embarrassed by his father’s friendship with van Gogh, who was committed to an asylum after cutting off his own ear and gifting it to a prostitute, Armand takes on the task reluctantly. In Paris, respected paint supplier Pere Tanguy (John Sessions) informs Armand that Theo died shortly after Vincent. But his stories about van Gogh’s tormented genius — as well as his suspicions about the artist’s physician, Dr. Paul Gachet (Jerome Flynn) — intrigue Armand enough to travel to Auvers-sur-Oise, the quiet French village where the painter died. When he arrives in the country hamlet, the doctor is out for a few days, so Armand begins chatting up the locals

doctor’s daughter (Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan), who takes flowers to van Gogh’s grave every day; and the boatman (Aidan Turner), who often observed the painter during his art-making activities. Armand sifts through the differing opinions about van Gogh and the strange circumstances leading up to his death in the hopes of finding the truth. The film’s pace and Clint Mansell’s score are sometimes a bit uneven, but the mystery is engrossing, especially as the painted images shift from color for present-day events to black and white for flashbacks. The filmmakers make compelling arguments for both death theories, leaving it to the viewers to draw their own conclusions, and deserve kudos for neither romanticizing nor underplaying van Gogh’s apparent mental illness. Although the hand-painted animation might be mistaken for a well-meaning gimmick, Kobiela and Welchman seem to have taken van Gogh’s famous words “We cannot speak other than by our paintings” to heart. By bringing his brightly colored canvases to full, moving life, sometimes with dizzying effect, they allow us to get a possible glimpse into the world as the troubled artist saw it, which makes “Loving Vincent” quite the artistic accomplishment.

However, he’s hit a Marvel Studios high note with “Thor: Ragnarok.” It’s a supremely funny and satisfying comic book adaptation benefiting from its director Taika Waititi’s kooky tastes. Look at the recent wave of indie talent that’s been handed franchises bigger than Chris Hemsworth’s biceps. Colin Trevorrow went from a time traveling indie drama to “Jurassic World.” Gareth Edwards did one monster movie before moving to “Godzilla” and “Rogue One.” Both of those filmmakers knocked out a dizzying challenge by crafting crowd-pleasing movies but good luck discerning much personality in their blockbuster films. Those movies felt like 13 people signed off on every moment. Waititi’s “Ragnarok” struck me as something different. He’s allowed a drastic visual and tonal

For the‘Birds’
M U S I C F E AT U R E
BY NATHAN POPPE LOOKatOKC Editor
Earthquakes were making Seth Glier late to a concert. His driver had to re-route because of a damaged highway. On his way to Okemah, Glier (the name rhymes with clear) learned that earthquakes were shaking up more than a road. “He was explaining to me how that was affecting his family’s life and dealing with having to reset his kitchen in the afternoon after an earthquake,” Glier remembered. This was 2015, and the Massachusetts-born singer-songwriter was in Oklahoma for his inaugural visit to the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival. That’s where I saw him perform alongside Marc Seedorf and his blind saxophonist, Joe Nerny. I’ll never forget when Glier carefully led the trio into the crowd of the Brick Street Cafe to add even more intimacy to his beautiful set. During that same festival, songwriter Ellis Paul talked with Glier over “the world’s best milkshake” at Sooner Drug & Gifts. Two years later, I was sitting across from Glier with a milkshake in hand. Oklahoma inspired many moments on his new fifth studio album, “Birds.” It’s where the album highlight, “Water on Fire,” came from. The stirring protest song mixes imagery of nature and greed over pulsing electronic organ riffs, hand claps and what sounds like a hammer hitting a train spike. “One of my favorite things about Woody Guthrie is that rather than preaching a political agenda, he put the politics inside the lives of people,” Glier told LOOKatOKC. “You end up looking at your own politics a little bit differently. That’s what I was trying to do with ‘Water on Fire.’ ” He sings, “Freedom is a word we bought to turn the prairie into a parking lot.” It’s a dig on fracking and re-imagines an old Ray Charles lyric. Glier, 28, has a knack for plain-spoken lyricism that strums the heart and sparks the mind. “I’m always really conscious of trying to tell those stories

GLIER CONTINUED FROM 9 in a way that doesn’t put the individuals down because I really do have a lot of love for the way of life here,” Glier said. “There’s just something else going on, and I think many of the people know it already. It’s just hard to articulate. There’s not a lot of economic options, and you have a corporation and a political system that does a pretty good job of making sure people feel isolated from their ability to stand up and fight. I have a personal vendetta against the oligarchy that our country is starting to turn into.” There’s a conflict at play in the song. Glier looks to explore the plight of the little guy who’s torn between interests. He said he always tries to have more than one thing happening in a song. It’s more realistic that way. That’s why life can be so disorienting, he said. “Coming to this town, I just found that there was a deep contradiction between this love of land and a sense of respect for tradition and that is so beautiful,” Glier said. “But then, there was also this corporation that was taking advantage of the people for that.”
FOR WHAT IT’S WORTH
Instead of recording the album in a Los Angeles studio, as he did on his 2015 album “If I Could Change One Thing,” Seth Glier decided to make “Birds” at home. The songs on “Birds” range from personal to political. Seth Glier’s fifth studio album landed Aug. 25 via MPress Records. [PHOTO PROVIDED]

the way of life here.
There’s a social consciousness weaving throughout “Birds,” but nowhere is it more obvious than in the cover of “For What It’s Worth,” the famed Buffalo Springfield hit penned by Stephen Stills in the mid 1960s. The chilling, sparsely produced Vietnam era track also has been covered by Ozzy Osbourne, Lucinda Williams and even Kid Rock. Stills told The Los Angeles Times he wrote the bluesy song in about 15 minutes. It was Glier’s manager that made the request after waking up from a meditation session. In 2016, Glier was driving across the country for his second WoodyFest and practiced his cover in the car. “The first time we did it was last year at the Crystal Theatre, and it went over so well that we decided to record it. Another one of those things where Oklahoma elbowed its way in,” said Glier, who had also opened for Oklahoma music icon Leon Russell and met Okie songwriter John Fullbright on a dormant volcano. “It’s iconic and so relevant. Every lyric in that song is pretty much exactly where we find ourselves right now.”
WHAT NOT SAYING SAYS Glier also did some soul searching on the Birds album closer, “I’m Still Looking.” The song’s genesis ties to Glier’s late brother. There’s not enough room in one magazine story to SEE GLIER, 11

GLIER CONTINUED FROM 10 properly encapsulate their relationship, but a recent TED Talk revealed how every morning it was Glier’s responsibility to clean, dress and feed his nonverbal older sibling, Jamie. He was born with autism and fought a severe seizure disorder until his death in 2015. “I was looking for some sense of meaning,” Glier said. “Something was supposed to come out of his life other than it just being over.” Glier co-wrote the song with a Christian songwriter in Nashville, and he noted his own religious views skewed toward atheism.

“I wanted to go there because we’re gonna approach this topic of afterlife, and we’re gonna approach it from different perspectives,” he said. “I thought maybe we could bring some humility to both sides.” You also could say Glier found more inspiration by tweeting. At his home recording studio, Glier noticed several birds perched near his window. He started talking to them. It seems less weird when you think about how he communicated with his brother. “My brother being nonverbal helped soften my certainty with jumping onto the other side ... because I fell in love with his spirit in the first place,” he said. “Our relationship didn’t really have language to it, so it’s something that I still think about. I’m still trying to navigate what’s going on.” The song’s creation doubled as a healing process and
informed the rest of “Birds.” Glier became more insular. He became less inclined to co-write. Glier took his time recording and found beauty in his demo’s imperfections. “It felt honest,” Glier said. “We could re-record this, and maybe I could unplug the refrigerator so it’s not in the guitar track, but what else are you losing with the refrigerator? The answer is quite a lot, often times. ... For the most part, I didn’t re-sing anything. “That’s just the beautiful thing about story telling in general is like you tell your story as honestly as possible. So other people hear the truth in their own story. To be able to do that with ‘I’m Still Looking’ or ‘Water on Fire,’ and get emails about how that resonates or how that sort of shifts some kind of cognitive dissidence that has been living inside someone. That’s really exciting, you can’t put that on a CD.”

Buyer pledges to restore property BY STEVE LACKMEYER For LOOKatOKC
T
he Donnay Building may not be doomed to be demolished as indicated by its owners during recent battles with preservationists. Local real estate investor Josh Thomas said he entered into a purchase contract for the landmark recently and is dedicated to restoring the mixed-use, mid-20th century building and not tearing it down. Thomas, whose family is primarily invested in agricultural land, first worked with broker Don Hayes as an initial investor in Sam Coury’s purchase of the Spaghetti Warehouse in Bricktown. “I’m not part of that anymore — I got my money out of it,” Thomas said. “I liked the property, but I wanted something on my own.” The Donnay Building at 5114 Classen Circle is home to longtime landmark businesses, including The Classen Grill, Charlie’s Records and the Hi-Lo Club. The building, which also has residential space on the top floor, was for decades home to the beloved Patio Grill Restaurant. That history, along with the property’s mix of tenants and unique design, prompted protests when Braum’s Ice Cream & Dairy Stores filed a rezoning application on July 5 that
PAGE 12
NOVEMBER 16–29, 2017
proposed clearing the block for a new store. Braum’s withdrew its rezoning request after continued public protests, opposition by the area’s Ward 2 Councilman Ed Shadid, and the failure to win enough Oklahoma City Planning Commission votes to forward the application to the Oklahoma City Council. During that debate, David Kennedy, attorney for the owner, Red Oak Properties, told planning commissioners the Donnay Building would be razed even if the Braum’s purchase was dropped. Thomas said he was first approached by Hayes, with whom he had worked during the Spaghetti Warehouse purchase. Hayes, Thomas said, “was hot” on doing a deal for the Donnay property. “Braum’s was going to get it, and the community spoke up,” Thomas said. “The support was so overwhelming, we wanted in on it.”
THE FIRST INNING Thomas said he already has reached out to the tenants, including the owner of the Hi-Lo Club, one of the city’s earliest venues for the city’s LGBT community. Hayes said they are meeting with artists and gathering historic photographs as they weigh redevelopment of the property. “We’re still in the first inning of this,”
Thomas said. “We want to keep the current tenants and roll with it. We do not want to tear the building down. As long as there are no cataclysmic events that come up during inspections, we’re moving forward.” Thomas said the planned improvements should not create an escalation in rent that will run out the existing tenants. He said initial improvements will involve repainting, new signage and repaving of the parking lots. For Thomas, the Donnay Building is a first effort at redeveloping a historic urban core property. “This is out of character a bit, but Spaghetti Warehouse also was out of character,” Thomas said. “Normally, I’m on the financial end of the investment. This time, I’m buying into this community. We want to keep this place cool. We see what Hideaway Pizza is doing at NW 50 and Western. We’re extremely excited about where this area is going.” Lynne Rostochil, who helped organize efforts to preserve the Donnay Building, said she was never convinced the building was too old or in a condition that it couldn’t be saved. “We’re thrilled,” Rostochil said. “We’re glad the building is going to be saved and the businesses will be around another four or five decades as they have been. I’ve always believed it’s possible to save this building because it is such an icon in Oklahoma City.”

klahoma continues to be a good place to start and grow an entrepreneurial business, a recent analysis by the Kauffman Foundation shows. The foundation issued its annual Kauffman Index of Growth Entrepreneurship this month, and based on he data, the Sooner State ranked among the top 10 for entrepreneurial growth among the nation’s 25 smallest states. The index looks at three factors in making its determinations: the rate of startup growth, which measures the average employment growth during startups’ first five years; the share of scale-ups, which measures significant employment growth a company experiences during its first 10 years; and high-growth company density, which analyzes how many private companies have at least $2 million in annual revenue and 20 percent annualized growth during a three-year period. This year, the index ranks Oklahoma seventh among small states, down one spot from its ranking for 2016. But still, economic development professionals say this continues a string of top-10 placements for the state, and they attribute its excellence primarily to Oklahoma’s lower-than-average cost of living and business costs environment. “In Oklahoma, we’ve been a little late to the party because it took us awhile to generate high-growth companies like ones that other people have been working on for a while,” said Scott Meacham, president and CEO of i2E Inc. “But in Oklahoma City, I think we are entering the era of high-growth companies,” he said. “Our activity definitely has started taking off. Where we have come from, to where we have gotten in a relatively short number of years in Oklahoma is pretty impressive.” Meacham, whose firm is a private not-for-profit corporation that works with entrepreneurs to build successful, high-growth companies in the state, said the index is a

Danny Maloney, CEO and co-founder of Tailwind, made similar observations. “More than anything, it comes down to the people,” he said. “Oklahoma has a great mix of humble, hardworking and highly talented people who like to roll up their sleeves and solve problems.” Tailwind’s mission is to help its clients plan, create, execute and optimize marketing campaigns on visual networks such as Instagram and Pinterest. Maloney said the company he founded with Alex Topiler opened in 2013 and launched its core product in 2015. It now has 18 full-time team members, with offices in Oklahoma City and New York City. Maloney said he’s seen a rapid growth across a number of types of industries within Oklahoma, and said that growth is attracting people to the state as they seek to build their careers. “Couple that with a great quality of life and low costs, and Oklahoma should only become a stronger attraction for highly talented people, over time,” he said.

The good news was, all the pieces were in place to offer a dynamic menu out of a chef-driven kitchen. And the passion Andrews has for beer was born out
COVER STORY of an affinity for gourmet foods. “I was the kid who stayed in during the summer and watched Food Network,” he said. So, turning to the data, Andrews plotted a course that ultimately resulted in moving one of its top tap-minders into the kitchen and developing a promotion that’s made Tuesday nights an occasion at Oak & Ore. Despite its proximity to residences, Andrews said he knew he needed to spread the word that Oak & Ore also was family-friendly. Enter Fried Chicken Tuesdays. Now, starting at 5 p.m. every week folks can come in and order by the plate or by the bucket with family-style sides on tables lined with butcher paper. Kids are welcome to make the paper table-covers a canvas for their crayons. Andrews said they also have family-oriented board games available. But making fried chicken in a restaurant that doesn’t serve it everyday isn’t as simple as it may sound. Fried chicken for the masses requires a substantial amount of kitchen space and manpower. “Frying a bone-in chicken breast is usually a 15-minute process,” Andrews said. Andrews consulted with his chef, Alvie Claborn, and they begin testing recipes right away. Since Oak & Ore started pumping out its variations on the American classic in August, Tuesdays have become a sensation. “If you want to come in on Tuesday now, we’re encouraging people to make reservations,” Andrews said. After sampling through Claborn’s fried chicken, it’s easy to see why. The Tuesday menu includes four variations on the crown jewel of Southern cuisine. Southern buttermilk is the baseline, a deli-

CHICKEN, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15 cious iteration that arrives as crunchy on the outside as it is juicy in the middle. Nashville Hot is all the rage across the country right now, and Claborn’s version is spot-on. He includes just enough brown sugar to the breading to balance the heat but not so much that it burns. If you’re not into bone-in chicken (shame on you!), lean into a honey butter chicken biscuit or go for the sprawling chicken-fried chicken served with Alvie’s mmmm-inducing bacon jam gravy. The chicken is sold four-, 10- and 12-piece options with different varieties. Both the Southern buttermilk, Nashville Hot and biscuits are available by the bucket for those looking for a throwback to chicken dining in the 1960s and 1970s. Each month, Claborn adds a variation on the chicken, drawing inspiration from around the globe. “There’s a lot of great fried chicken recipes from around the world,” he said. “We’ll be featuring something new every month to share those great flavors.” This month’s feature is a variation on the Japanese classic Chicken Karage. But Oak & Ore is much more than Fried Chicken Tuesdays, starting with beer. BREW TO PERFECTION From the day it opened, Oak & Ore has been one of the city’s hot spots for premium beer consumption. “I believe that craft beer should be served with the same passion and care the brewers take in creating it,” Andrews said. “Many a craft beer is misrepresented by poor service, whether it is served at an improper temperature, improperly stored, too old, served in
Page 16
improper glassware ... just to mention a few.” To make sure they get things right, Oak & Ore uses 36 stainless steel taps to serve a rotating menu of craft beers. The taps are capable of pouring at four different temperatures with adjustable carbonation levels when necessary. Libations are served in glassware appropriate to their style. Andrews trains servers on craft beer and proper service, using the Cicerone Certification Program. On the food side, Alvie’s daily menu is a nice mix of flavors broad enough to pair with the many beers on tap. It doesn’t hurt that he started out behind the bar at Oak & Ore. “I had a career in banking before the housing crunch then went into culinary while I lived in Colorado,” he said. “I worked in kitchens and food trucks there before I moved back.” His job minding the tap gave him a insight into how to approach the menu when he took over earlier this year. So, if you’re not in on a Tuesday or simply want something other than fried chicken, the Thai taco salad is a winner. A fried wonton bowl plays nest to stir-fried chicken in peanut sauce tossed in a spicy sambal dressing with Romaine, Asian slaw, cilantro, jalapenos and crumbled peanuts. Sandwiches come in banh mi, Cubano and a French dip with brisket. Street tacos are available because, by now, it’s the law. Alvie’s brand are stuffed with beer-braised pulled pork in a guajillo chile sauce. They are topped with crema, salsa and cilantro. The Korean BBQ is essentially Bulgogi, steak cooked in a sweet and spicy marinade, with rice, kimchi and

Despite his obvious skill, eye for detail and command of color, one of the last places Robert Levering ever expected to see one of his paintings is on the wall of an art gallery. “It’s awesome. I’m smiling ear to ear. I walk in and I see everybody’s piece and just everybody representing themselves, but we all come together and represent Oklahoma,” he said, standing under the massive and realistic rendering of a snarling gorilla. “It’s an amazing thing that the Oklahoma Contemporary has done for us where we could come in and actually paint on their walls. It’s just amazing. I love it.” Also known as ENTAKE, Levering is one of 10 Oklahoma graffiti artists whose large-scale, brightly colored works

GRAFFITI CONTINUED FROM 18 are featured in the exhibit “Not for Sale: Graffiti Culture in Oklahoma,” on view through Nov. 30 at Oklahoma Contemporary Arts Center. As the title indicates, the works won’t be sold, in large part because the graffiti artists, or writers, painted them right on the gallery walls. “Like graffiti that you might see on the streets, it’s not permanent, it’s meant to change, it’s meant to be painted over and renew itself,” said Jennifer Scanlan, Oklahoma Contemporary’s curatorial and exhibitions director. “One of the things we like to do at Oklahoma Contemporary is really try to show a broad definition of what people consider art, to really celebrate creativity in all of its forms. And this was clearly an aspect of creativity that perhaps hasn’t gotten attention as an art form here in Oklahoma.”
SHOWCASING HIP-HOP She said the exhibit is the brainchild of Angel Little, who has been teaching hip-hop and graffiti classes to children at Oklahoma Contemporary for many years.
PAGE 20
NOVEMBER 16–29, 2017
He co-curated the exhibit with one of the artists, Chris Sker, whom Little called “one of the biggest influences in Oklahoma hip-hop history.” “SKER is probably one of the first artists to really get nationally known out of Oklahoma, goes all the way back to 1987,” Little said. “This is a show that is designed and created to represent the artwork of the street, of the people who struggle. … This is a part of hip-hop, and so this is something to represent that voice and that energy.” “Not for Sale” is on view throughout November, which is Hip Hop History Month in Oklahoma City. Oklahoma Contemporary threw a Hip Hop Jam earlier this month with musical performances, b-boy and b-girl battles, live graffiti showcases, workshops and more. Many people may not realize that graffiti art is a core element of hip-hop culture alongside more musical aspects such as DJing, emceeing and breaking, Oklahoma City performer DJ Nymasis said. “I think it’s due time for it to get its credit. This is the most slept-on of everything: Everybody knows rap and rappers, and everybody knows DJs,” he said before playing the exhibit’s Oct. 5 opening event, which drew nearly 400 people. “I see huge things for this. … This couldn’t have
happened anywhere else; it wouldn’t have been the same if it did. They gave these guys free, creative control, which took a lot of trust, because these guys are rough around the edges — like we are all. I see it (the exhibit’s concept) traveling. I see it furthering aerosol art as a whole.”
BREAKING DOWN WALLS The goal of the exhibition is not just literally painting walls but also metaphorically tearing them down. Since graffiti often is illegally placed on overpasses, trains and exterior walls, Little said people sometimes put up mental barriers that prevent them from truly seeing and appreciating it. “Inside of this gallery is the big thing because of what this gallery represents for the state. I’ve seen it in galleries that were private, but this is a public sector. This is a place where the public goes, where they normally expect art that fits inside of a public sight. When you take art that’s often considered to be radical, rebel and not meant for general public consumption and put it right here in a place like this, it’s a completely different image for it. And that’s what this represents. We’re bringing the public in on it and showing them, ‘Hey, look, this is art,’ ” Little said. SEE GRAFFITI, 22

GRAFFITI CONTINUED FROM 20 The exhibit features the work of five graffiti writers from the Tulsa area and five from the Oklahoma City metro area, including Kristopher Kanaly (aka RHAK), founder of the Oklahoma Mural Syndicate, known for the Plaza Walls in the Plaza District. “Lots of people in Oklahoma City are familiar with the Plaza Walls. It’s become a huge tourist attraction and a great place for selfies,” Scanlan said. “I think people are becoming more and more familiar with graffiti as an art form through his efforts.”
HISTORIC PRECEDENT Although the artwork in “Not for Sale” is rooted in the graffiti movement that emerged in Philadelphia in the early 1970s, Scanlan said the concept of humans leaving a public mark is deeply ingrained. “This idea of putting your name up on a wall ... it’s been around for thousands and thousands of years,” she said. “Some people trace it back to the Neolithic cave paintings that people would make when they made their marks on the wall. Certainly, we know in Greek and Roman times

you could see things scratched into walls; they were often people’s names, sometimes they were political statements, sometimes they were ... declarations of love.” Graffiti has grown into a global artistic and cultural phenomenon, with a vast international industry of designer spray paints created just for aerosol art. “It’s into every corner of the planet. ... It’s become a universal visual language,” said Adam Smith, a Tulsabased graffiti artist known as CODAK. “It’s interesting actually traveling to certain countries to see how they’re interpreting letter-based forms as related to their own writing structure and written language.”
EXPRESSIVE ART FORM Although CODAK started in 1988 creating more traditional letter-based graffiti, the Tulsa Artist Fellow said as he studied graphic design and modern art, he developed a purely abstract approach that is more about form, composition and color rather than the legibility of letters. “That’s kind of the fun is that you guys get to pick it out,” he said. “I was kind of inspired by this whole idea of the photography element that goes into graffiti documentation, because if we don’t take pictures, we might not ever see it again. This is actually how we would trade styles among artists, across the country, internationally.
... I thought, ‘Well, I don’t want to be called Minolta or Canon or Fuji.’ I liked Kodak. I just switched the K to a C.” Nowadays, graffiti artists often incorporate their Instagram handles into their work so that they can more easily share it. “I have, like, this incessant need to evolve. I want to keep growing,” CODAK said. “I kind of have my hands in all different kinds of things, but there’s a common thread ... between all the work that I do that you can see, which is it’s based in the street work that I grew up making.” Adapting and evolving are keys to ENTAKE’s graffiti style, too, since he favors creating productions, or collaborative pieces. With “Not for Sale,” he and fellow writer SEAPO worked together on a massive jungle scene, with SEAPO signing their names in bold blue letters, while ENTAKE spray-painted in the realistically detailed gorilla, flowers and toucan. “It’s something that we work really hard at, and people can appreciate it. … They wouldn’t think about painting anything like that with spray paint, and when they actually see it done, it’s kind of mind-blowing,” ENTAKE said. “We don’t sell our work; we pretty much donate it. We donate it for the people, for the public. It’s for people to see and to enjoy. We’re not looking to get paid off of it, we’re not looking to get rich off it, we’re just doing it ’cause we purely love it. And there’s not a better feeling in the world than that.”
