Ben Eine biography in Biographies from the artzine on artrepublic.comBen Eine is one of London’s most prolific and original street artists. Anyone who visits East London on a regular basis will be familiar with the giant letters and words that adorn his preferred canvas: the walls and shop shutters of many businesses. Ben Eine hit the headlines when his piece 21st Century City which was hanging in our Soho gallery was given as a gift by David Cameron to Barak Obama on his first state visit to the USA in 2010. Eine specialises in producing huge letters on shop fronts across London. From single letters to complex and wry combinations, Eine’s alphabet can be found throughout London. His huge individual letters on shop shutters are in a style he has made his own, originality, a distinctive style and a clear profile sets his letters apart from all others. Ben Eine is not just a master graffiti artist though he is also the man behind the printing of some of the most iconic works to come out of the Pictures on Walls studio over the last five years. Eine’s screen printing skills have helped produce some of street arts most sort after prints from arguably the greatest street artist on the planet including Banksy, Faile and his own work. Eine’s work has been exhibited in New York,Los Angeles, Tokyo and all over Europe including V1 in Copenhagen (with Banksy) and Collette in Paris. His painting commissions have also taken him worldwide and include trips to Israel, Australia and India.
