[New Website Launch] NorthSideHiphop.ca

logikal — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 19:37:13 +0000

This is a website that is long over due!Big shouts to SFA Extended fam Dr. Mark Campbell for his hard work and dedication on this.
Northside Hip Hop is an online resource that catalogues Canadian hip hop history and culture. This site is home to a collection of artifacts and multimedia memorabilia that has yet to be digitized and/or catalogued. Northside hip hop showcases a diversity of items from Canadian hip hop history, such as the first vinyl recordings, art, performances and literature from across the country. We are a ‘living archive’, capturing and documenting Canadian hip hop culture, past and present. Northsidehiphop.ca does not and cannot capture everything, rather what we try to do is to begin the process of documenting our histories. We need your help, so dig through your basement and help make this thing happen!

JIMMY CHIALE’S ART PARTY-(March 13) 498 QUEEN STREET WEST

logikal — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:35:51 +0000

Jimmy Chiale arrived in Canada 4 years ago. Originally from Paris, Jimmy is now a resident artist of Toronto and literally leaving his mark on the city. His work is “off the wall”. Jimmy’s abstract style is a unique mix of street art and surrealism with many original colors. The bright colors, smooth lines and extreme detail concentrated onto a canvas become soothing for many observers, it is an experience. His work has strayed far from the common canvas and has reached buildings, people, shoes, t-shirt prints, helmets and most recently a collection of Longboard (skateboards) in collaboration with Longboard Living.

Jimmy is a hair dresser by day and an artist for life. His creativity has merged into his profession and he can shave anything from the Toronto skyline to Barack Obama into hair.

As his career in the art world is expanding, his work is moving into retail shops, filling night clubs, hair salons and always puts on a show, entertaining his guests with the right music and vibe to bring out the Jimmy Chiale Experience.
