Here’s an advertisement I received in my in-tray.  It looks fun!


Visual Street Artists Battle it out live, to represent Singapore against the best from around the world!
FACE OFF is Asia first street artist tournament. We are re defining art exhibitions and blurring the lines between performance and visual art. The best of Singapore’s urban artists will compete with artists over a 10 month program against some of the best in the world. We are changing the face of ART in Singapore. Completely relaxed environment, music, art and the best of Urban Chic for an easy night of entertainment.

War breaks out on March 30th with round 1. at The Hall, Old School, Mt Sophia. The bar opens at 6.30pm and first battle commences at 8.00 pm. 10 meters x 2.5 meters of wall to be completed by 4 artists in 90 minutes, and not one spray can in sight.

The program is a sudden death tournament where 2 street artists battle it out live. The tournament kicks off with a double header: The KillerGerbil and TraseOne will do a demonstration alongside the competiters zero3sixtyfive and Addica (addicted to ink cans.)

The artists have 90 minutes to draw or paint in black on white an image that will be judged by the crowd. Invited Judges, TraseOne and the KillerGerbil will give the critic’s choice and the crowd will vote with their feet on the night for the winner. The rules are simple: free form, black on white, single medium, 8ft x 8ft boards, no extra time, one brush or marker. Winner takes all.
