STREETHING

Good news for all the New Balance lovers, the much talked about New Balance 576 "Leftover" are hitting the New Balance outlets in Malaysia. New Balance utilized some left over material from their cutting room floor to make a series of 576’s in 3 different colourways - brown, green and blue. Take a close look at the shoes and you will notice the reverse colourway on each side.

The above brown ones will be the first to drop at New Balance Malaysia outlets for RM699 (around USD188). They will also be launched at Leftfoot and other New Balance outlets in Singapore as well.

Is that you Hans? We came across the AF1 x Sneaker Freaker Book which include bunch of pictures of rare AF1s models and tons of interviews with sneaker celebrities such as Hikmet, DJ Clark Kent, Bobbito Garcia and many more.

You can get a copy from Footlocker Australia or simply order your copy from Sneaker Freaker online store for AUD5.00 per copy. Long live AF1, Long live Sneaker Freaker!

What you are looking at ARE NOT the New Balance 574 "Hungry Dragon". These are general release New Balance 574 with similar oiled leather and stitch details to fullfil the US/Japan market. The differences between these and the "Hungry Dragon" are fewer production numbers, not individually stitched tongue tag, and without the heel tab logo-font in Chinese characters.

Expect them to drop middle of March at New Balance stores near you. For Singapore peeps, you can get yours from Leftfoot now.

In conjunction with MY.OZ, the Australian High Commission’s year-long cultural program to celebrate the 50th anniversary of relations between Australia and Malaysia, Valentine Willie Fine Art and the Australian High Commission will hold an exhibition of video works entitled Street Works – Inside Outside Yokohama at Valentine Willie Fine Art from 25 April – 12 May 2007.

Street Works features the work of two of Australia’s most popular artists, Craig Walsh and Shaun Gladwell. Although on many levels, their practices might have little in common, both these artists utilise the streets or generic urban space as the milieu in which much of their work is generated.

This exhibition which was commissioned for the Yokohama 2005 International Triennale of Contemporary Art presents videoworks of urban street culture – skateboarding, hip hop, BMX bike riding, graffiti to render barren pockets of urban landscapes into dramatic filmic sequences.

The tour of Street Works is supported by the Asialink Centre of the University of Melbourne, the Australia Council for the Arts, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Australia and Canberra Contemporary Art Space.
