Some of the coolest Instagrams around come from 13th Witness (graf/art legend Futura 2000’s son, btw). He’s a pro photographer, so no surprise it’s quality stuff. But the subject matter is of somebody who also sees the sometimes hidden beauty of the urban landscape. Enjoy/follow/share.
Vigilante Vigilante: The Battle for Expression [Trailer]
Back when I was painting, we called dudes who tried to stop taggers or called the cops, “heroes.” We fucking hated heroes. But now I’m grown, so I’d like to actually hear them out.
Martha Was My First
Back in the early-1980s, my friends and I stole several copies (each!) of Subway Art, the pictorial bible of New York graffiti. It was chock full of Martha Cooper’s photos (along with Henry Chalfant). That book, in no small way, effectively kicked off my graffiti “career,” my first job in the art world, and eventually lead to the launch of URB magazine.
