About this product

Product Information

New York graffiti writers who cut their teeth painting trains in the '70s and '80s transfer Old Skool street art to a more permanent, collectible medium in this book, using transit maps, instead of subway cars, as canvases. GHOST, T-KID, QUIK, REVOLT, BLADE, SHAME125, COPE2, SKEME, and others decorated ordinary 23 x 32 MTA maps with their personal tags and graphics-echoing the heyday of New York train graffiti. Sixteen sections, one for each writer, feature a total of more than100 maps, as well as brief statements about the painters' artistic evolution and style. Like a dynamic piece book , or sketchbook, this collection is an exclusive sampling of the painters' signature strokes and tags in portable form. In fact, many of the artists featured here have used subway-map art as a springboard from the fleeting genre of train-tagging to the sturdier platform of the international art gallery circuit. AUTHOR: Alan Bortman lives in the greater Boston area. He is the curator of DirtyPilot.com, an urban art and graffiti art store featuring well-known and underground artists. 105 colour photos
