For the second year in a row, the sleepy Italian town of Grottaglie recently welcomed some of the world's most renowned street artists to the Fame Festival. Although I was only in town briefly, I already know I will make an effort to return next year. An enormous, abandoned monastery on the outskirts of town provided not only a perfect setting, but also an incredible atmosphere for viewing art - I can honestly say the experience bordered on the mystical. Here are a few impressions of David Ellis and Blu's massive collaboration in one of the monastery's courtyards, all that remains from the work they put in to create the animation below.
