Skeme a Roma

Opening: 9.5.2013

VARSI è una nuova realtà che nasce nelle vie della metropoli con il desiderio di viverle e raccontarle. La storia che vuole esporre è lunga, si insidia negli spazi urbani più di 30 anni fà, nello specifico prende forma nei ghetti di New York. SKEME sarà per la sua prima volta a Roma dove ha dato vita ad un percorso espositivo che articola un racconto sulle origini e sull’evoluzione della storia del graffito.

Meaning of Grass

remi rough VS drax

Ah ah ah, I love these stories (but please click on the photo to read it, too long to paste it here), they always remember me we all share the same background: this shit happens everywhere and if it never happened to you… that’s probably because you never have really painted. Anyway big-ups to Rough and Drax, never met them but they always have looked like crazy good writers, art speaks by itself.

New York subway graffiti 1973 – 1975 2nd edition by Keith Baugh

From the editor: This is the book that pre-dates the hugely influential Subway Art by Martha Cooper and Henry Chalfant. Photographer Keith Baugh took his camera where others feared to go to capture the earliest images of the New York art form.The book includes more than 200 images, not just of the work of the earliest New York writers, but also of the advertising art of mainstream Manhattan. It’s an amazing contrast and a unique record of subway art. This is a limited edition run of 1,000 copies, so secure yours now while stocks last!
