Celebrating 30 years of the most important and iconic films of early Hip Hop and NYC Subway Graffiti culture!!!
A free screening of the 1983 documentary Style Wars which explores the subculture of New York’s young graffiti writers and break dancers, showing their activities and aspirations and the social and aesthetic controversies surrounding New York graffiti.
Winner of the Grand Prize for Documentaries at the 1983 Sundance Film Festival, Style Wars is regarded as the indispensable document of NY street culture and subway graffiti art of the early ‘80s, the filmic record of a golden age of youthful creativity that exploded into the world from a city in crisis.
The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with the filmmaker, Henry Chalfant, sculptor/painter Carlos “Mare139” Rodriguez, and moderated by painter/DJ iona rozeal brown.
This program is presented in partnership with the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and the Tribeca Film Institute.

By my estimation this could be one of the longest standing unsanctioned/undisturbed murals in New York City. This 1982 DREAMS piece by Smiz NSA was recently given a minor face lift.
Alex Fakso paints with hot searing burning light. Seriously he’s very good with a camera,
Os Gemeos agree. Check him out snapping around Buenos Aires and talking about his process

After adding some colour to Amsterdam, Does packed his bags and loaded his car with paint and blank canvasses to drive to London. Check-in at the Eurotunnel in Calais went smoothly. Upon exit in the UK there were a few question at customs about all the equipment in the back of the car. While the spray cans raised some eyebrows, Does and cameraman Stephan Polman were able to talk their way out of this and off they went into the streets of London.
Next week the journey continues on to another European city. Until then, we hope you enjoy this second official video for the ‘Endless Perspectives’ project.

We took advantage of the mild weather the other day to get up on the roof and paint. The international line up included myself, Bio, Binho(Brazil), & Dmote( Australia ) No plan, just a little improvisation.
