Very soon, something amazing will happen here on Stencil Archive.

It may not be what you think it will be.

But a few things it definitely will NOT BE  ::::: Stencil Archive will not: add a pop up to make you give us your email or your money ::: FUCK click-wrap agreements!!!! :::: we won't advertise on Facebook/Google/Yahoo/etc :::: NO gleaning of your information to sell to highest bidder :::: no cooperation with the authorities (well, NSA has us all beat) ::: Don't expect spam emailings or lists you can never unsubscribe from ::: no Kickstarters or Indigogos (we hurt for funds but refuse to make the squeeze pitch on you, over and over) ::: no profits from YOUR art and/or YOUR photos (so submit them now) ::: we don't care what your politics are (unless you're rascist and/or fascist) ::: we abhor click bait ::: we will not charge you $0.99+ for bloatware to put on your device ::: we won't constantly change everything and make you download apps on top of apps ::: ___________ (anything else that drives you insane about Web 2.0 and the social media meltdown)..... 

Stay tuned for upcoming surprises!

Logan Hicks ist ein Schablonenkünsteler aus New York, dessen Arbeit die Dynamik der urbanen Umgebung erforscht. Ursprünglich ein gelernter Siebdrucker, wurde die Arbeit Logans mit seinen von Hand gesprayten Stencilwerken rasch berühmt, aufgrund seiner Fähigkeit den manchmal mondänen Lebenszyklus des Stadtlebens auf eine tief bewegende und doch rafinierte Art und Weise einzufangen.

Anti-Surveillance Camouflage for Your Face
In a world of increasingly sophisticated facial-recognition technology, a drastic technique can throw the machines off your trail.

JULY 24, 2014

The NSA made me slather my face in make-up.

Or, it didn’t make me, exactly. But last spring, I found myself wandering around D.C., wearing dazzle camouflage for the first time. It was a sunny Saturday, the capital swamp neither frigid nor muggy-oppressive—perfect for walking. It took me 45 minutes to get all the makeup on, to get the pencil right and the hair dangled just so.

I spent the day hanging out with some friends around Adams Morgan, a neighborhood seemingly developed by former hippies who had gone into non-profit C-suites or opened boutique restaurant-bars. I told my friends why my face had splotches of dark makeup on it but didn’t say much to anyone else, and that’s when the looks began.

Peter Kuper is a long-time stencil artist, co-founder of World War 3 Illustrated (with long-time stenciler Seth Tobocman), and current creator for Mad Magazine's Spy vs. Spy. When I was compiling my Oaxaca section for Stencil Nation, Peter was kind enough to take a few minutes from his insane schedule and send me some photos. One photo of a rice stencil ended up in the book. Glad to finally get an interview with him posted on this site (thanks to Boing Boing and RiYL, and Brian Heater).

Interview audio here.

Every time I speak to Peter Kuper, the conversation invariably turns to New York — or, as is often the case, begins there. It’s my own fault. I’ve got this insatiable need to ask fellow residents, artists in particular, what keeps them in the city’s orbit. Kuper is a particularly interesting case study, having left the city — and country — in 2006, for a life in Mexico.
