108 and Elzo opened new work in a dual exhibition titled Crossroad #1 at Doppelgaenger Gallery in Italy. 108 installed an Insitu mural as well as showing a range of new work on paper and canvas. 108 continues to impress with his subtle yet powerful imagery. Elzo and 108 collectively showcase new work that originates in the street genre but works in the gallery as well.

108 – Elzo Durt
Crossroad #1
5 marzo – 20 aprile 2013
“Doppelgaenger is delighted to announce Crossroad #1, a double exhibition by artists 108 (Italy, 1978) and Elzo Durt ( Belgium, 1980). The title refers to a possible crossing of two different artistic trails, risen from the street but, however, separated. The panorama of urban art, prominently evolved during the last ten years, from media, academic and institutional point of view. Usually attributable to graffiti and street art, develops sequences of application and phenomenon, different from its original, pure and well-know characteristics. But, at the same time, it reveals stylistic performances from ‘900, or earlier, avant-garde.”
