US graffiti-turned-fine artist Barry McGee is currently showing an exhibition of new work at the Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead. As the images from the show here reveal, McGee has created a number of site-specific installations at the gallery, all of which feature his trademark combination of urban detritus with intricate hand-painted murals.

McGee's exhibition will be on show at Baltic until April 27. More info here.

Barry McGee is without a doubt one of my favorite DIY artists.

Anyone interested in this genre of art should definitely check out Beautiful Losers, an art doc that features, among others, Barry McGee.
