RIP DONDI...


So it's a thursday night in 1982 iand i am sitting in the lounge with my parents and two kid sisters watching the BBC'S long running chart rundown top of the pops. An inane presenbter introduces malcom mclaren's buffalo gals and my family remain lake placid wall i am excitable as the hypeactive rug rat whizzzing on E numbers. Familiar with graffiti writng, the shit doesn't hit until that moment i see DONDI'S black, cool hand outline in said video. It's the first time i see writing in motionand along with thousands of deilish teens across the globe my mind is blown. An esssential new world is opened and things transpired, we could not havve had a better individual do this for us. Because DONDI was one of newyorks flyest; a fact exposed two years later when a book you may of heard called 'SUBWAY ART" was published it's opening spread is a martha cooper shot of a skinny guy straddled between two trains blazing up a T to that B the high wire act of painting machined metal was brought home to a generation and another inspirational, precious flash was stored the results of that piece ( children of the grave again part3) had a steady dream of similar achievements and again the style was dondi AKA mr white, BUS129, PRE, POSE, ROLL, 2MANY and ASIA. On the taken out worms scuttling qaround londons tube network in 86 could you see they affect DONDIS style had: from the cast iron strength of Cast and Comer chief rocking Big Mets and too rio and ice3 harming littlemets and districts. Moving into the 90's, ,that torch was kept flaming by the corpse that kept marching despite the gavvers best shut em down efforts, and as somew of those hard heads took to inovating styles of their own to see where they got it from was still possible.

DONDI earned his wish of influencing others and saw it happen before his death from AIDS in 1998 aged 37 with the publication of DONDI white: style master general by andrew "zephyr" witten and michale white, the graffit writer from east newyork, brooklyn has achieved posthumously another style not built for snuffing thanks to the fantastic job the two authors have carried out with this hard back memorial. Not only an XL size remembarance and a celebration of DONDI's beguilling craft it's a monumental book others would be hard pressed going against when it comes to representing the life of a graffiti artist.

The text is first hand biography, doubling as a historical trecord of new yorks 70's and 80's painting's and painters; how that sect went overground blowing international how moving art foundit's way onto the stillness of canvas and the Down town explosion of hip happenings. In the middle of those huge throffy waves DONDI surfed ZEPHYR as contempary and friend, and michael white as brother loop it all with love, as they do the pages upon pages of donald jospeh whites hand glides.

Here is an unparralleled, under one roof picture stoudy of a writers career. weather with can, marker, ball point, pencil; be it on train paper or stretched material, you see how styler master became the brooklynghts double barrel sir name. Over 70 pages are given upto rail works alone, each piece accompanied by one of his partners in tress pass like DOC, whyo had this to say about DONDI's last subway excursion "This was a funy night it was supost to be an Arban Bus w/c. When we got there, there where no flats dondi said" i'm not doing any styles on no ridges". he didn't want his last train to be a ridgy, when we finished whe where leaving the tunnel and DONDI just vanished. You have to climb yup alot of flights to get back upto the street. But he just dissapeared. When we got to my car, he was in the back seat, al huddled up. When i asked him how he got in my car, he just said " i know hondas".

The many skletches included provide prime evolutinary evidence, DONDI's gallery exhiibits show what got european art collectors openwhen they where looking for a new art order and the portrait shots retread heady times. Its a shame writing had to loose a sovereign to gain a king of a book . But with it, dondi white is still up in this mutherfucka. Go get

Did Dondi actually die? He's fuckin' awesome.... People shouldn't be allowed to post R.I.P. unless a link or article is posted on him to state how why who when a person actually dies...

[!@#$%]

yes, dondi is awesome, and yes, he did actually die, quite some time ago.


not forcing people to post proof that a person has died is something that is out of respect. it is not necessary to pry into the personal business of the dead and those left to mourn them by demanding to know how why etc a person passed.

I refuse to belive that all of dondis work was stock. I think in the book it says something about useing house hold caps for a wider spray. Dondi White R.I.P.

[Hoblow]

R.I.P Dondi, a true king. His style remains as relevant today as it ever was.

That letter sheds a little light on the situation, but i've always found it odd that very little info is around as to how dondi died. I know it was from AIDS, but how he caught it seems to be a secret. I'm not asking people to tell me the story, nor do i feel the need to ever know it. It just seems that whenever anybody else dies, writer or otherwise, you can always find out the story behind it easily, but not in this case. Odd.

Indeed. To me he's the greatest of Kings. Such a big inspiration for Graffiti writers. His appearance in Style Wars is just the epitomy of a true Graffiti artist in my oppinion.

As a side note: in Style Wars there was a poster with a big Dondi piece on it, is it possible to get that anymore?

a french mag that's right...

[pasty pale]

The book "Dondi White" gives me a lot of inspiration. There is so much to love about Dondi. The structure of his letters, the extensions, the colors. But, one of the best things in my opinion was how he pasted on his knowlege to others. A lot of writers today send in flicks to mags. or post on-line trying to get that fame fast. Dondi wouldn't let some of his own homies see his flicks until he really got to know them or felt they were ready to see them. I think that's awesome. There was a hierarchy back then that schooled up-and-comers on what it was, to really be a king. I think that is missing today. One person would teach another and styles were developed like that. There's nothing wrong with self promotion. Dondi did it with so much class.

R.I.P Dondi, a true king. His style remains as relevant today as it ever was.

That letter sheds a little light on the situation, but i've always found it odd that very little info is around as to how dondi died. I know it was from AIDS, but how he caught it seems to be a secret. I'm not asking people to tell me the story, nor do i feel the need to ever know it. It just seems that whenever anybody else dies, writer or otherwise, you can always find out the story behind it easily, but not in this case. Odd.

he had full blown AIDS for years before he got sick and passed on
