It is with great pleasure and pride that we announce the fourth edition of Meeting Of Styles Montreal,
a event celebrating the 30th anniversary of legendary New York City based crew, The Cool 5ive (TC5).

Art collectors and followers of this creative culture are welcomed to join us in Montreal from September 4th to 6th 2009.

On September 4th at 5pm, at 251 St-Catherine East (Underworld   shop), The official TC5 30th anniversary artshow will open in Montreal. Selected, exclusive and original paintings by crew members will be on display. As the project is primarily an online artshow, the works will be availble on http://www.TC5-30.com. The crew has none the less accepted to hold an exclusive opening with us, here in Montreal. 

For the occasion, fifteen members of the collective have confirmed their presence. This is a unique opportunity for clients, fans and peers to meet and exchange.

New York, during the mid-1980’s, was an amazing time for graffiti writers. Trains were an open canvas and styles were running in abundance. TC-5 was one of the main crews at the forefront of this thriving graffiti scene. Crew president SEEN shaped the crew with some of the freshest writers of his generation such as BEAM, JUICE, DOZE, DOC, LADY PINK, as well as expanding the crew primarily from the Bronx into a true All-City force. TC-5 rocked the number and letter lines hard with some of the freshest cars pulled out on the NYC Subway system, and has continued to push the boundaries of contemporary letter and character styles over the past 30 years.

The artshow, in Montreal for one night only, shall turn into a party until the early morning. Well established and respected Montreal club DJ’s Truspin, Maysr and Sagewondah are on the bill as selectors for the night.

September 5th and 6th, all day at 1825 Cabot (Papiers MPC, Ville-Émard), the immense outdoor murals will be painted. Forty artists from Paris, Toronto, Porto-Rico, Boston and Montreal will join the members of TC5 crew for the second part of the weekend. Photographer Ulysse Lemerise (yulphoto.ca

Hello everyone,
Last week end we did a piece with the new MTN 94 Spraypaint
we almost felt in love, the paint is sick! colors are fresh and the paint cover up so well. If you get the chance to try one
you will know what we’re talking about.

IZ THE WIZ is having an art show at Tuff City in the Bronx on June 12th.
For those who never heard about IZ THE WIZ, he’s simply one of these all time NY graffiti Legends.
You can also see him appear many times in the famous Henry Chalfant’s Stylewars movie.

So if you’re around, let’s go to the boogie down!

It’s been 20 years old this year since i did my first graffiti piece and i still love to spend time to work out new combo under the name of SCIEN. Graffiti is the story of my whole life, it taught me everything about life, beefs, risks, adrenalin, laughs, friendship, style and brotherhood,that is maybe the reason why i still can’t give up. Here are some of my last sketches, enjoy.

BOOM! Will rock this one as soon as degrees will be back.

Our homie Ray “THREE” at GOLD COIN
will give a show the 3rd of april, MORE INFO HERE
