Elite Gudz x Phetus x Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week
Elite Gudz artist and designer, Phetus, helped Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week bid a fond farewell to its Bryant Park home by contributing original art installations to the events media sponsor, Vevant, for each day of the eight day event.
A recap of the occasion along with behind the scenes footage is now available from the team at Elite Gudz. Phetus’ site-specific creations each consisted of a differently styled mannequin bust, a 4′ x 6′ canvas and an accompanying 12″ x 12″ canvas in themes relating to the world of fashion and current events.
Amongst the pieces created by Phetus for the event were “Neg di san fe,” in an effort to support relief in Haiti and “From the Heart,” in support of Women’s Heart Health Awareness.

Elite Gudz Innovates, Creates and Captivates at Toy Fair 2010
After the palpable buzz that was generated at the Elite Gudz booth during Toy Fair 2010, the public will now have the opportunity to view what industry insiders experienced at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City.
Utilizing a custom designed child-like form as a canvas, artists Phetus, Mr. Den, Rolo Ledesma, Narek Gevorgian and Nemo expressed the creativity, diversity and spirit of the Toy Industry by live painting and sculpting what attendees began referring to as “Mannequinz” by the end of the four day show.
At an industry event of over 20,000 attendees, it takes something truly special to stand out and capture people’s attention and imaginations, and judging by the response, that was exactly what the group of artists at Elite Gudz succeeded in doing. Watch Elite Gudz’ video chronicling the transformation of the “Mannequinz” from blank canvas to works of art at EliteGudz.com.

BAN2 A.K.A. DELI167 Reps Concrete Immortalz
Elite Gudz only has two videos left in a series starring graffiti’s most iconic and prolific artists as they join the ranks as official Concrete Immortalz. The second to last video features BAN2, one of the old school pioneers of subway art.
Hailing from the Bronx county of New York City, BAN started writing graffiti in 1976. Growing up next door to the legendary NOC 167, BAN would receive an education in graffiti writing that would lead him to become a legend himself, mainly known for his work on the 4 line and Broadway between 79′-80′. Check out what BAN had to say about the Concrete Immortalz as another section of the mural gets destroyed.
Originally painted at Tuff City Tattoo by Phetus and Such, the Concrete Immortalz mural was immediately destroyed by Cap, Cope2, T-Kid, Ban2, Indie and Cheez as a tribute to the real life actions that go on within the graffiti subculture.
