Graffiti represents an extremely young global underground subculture, it’s the root of modern guerilla marketing and the core inspiration behind street art. This episode of “Crack and Shine” highlights Katsu, a graffiti vandal active in NYC. Katsu’s campaign is unique within the graffiti world because while most vandals influence with traditional street tagging and murals, Katsu uses deeper conceptual strategies to promote the movement. To learn more about Katsu and other graffiti writers from New York such as Ket, Noxer, Veefer, Greg Lamarche (SpOne), Lewy BTM, Stephen Espo Powers and photographer Stephen K.Schuster

SANTIAGO MAKING A MODE2 PIECE

This article was posted by Bates 1 week, 3 days, 23 hours, 57 minutes ago.

“Santiago * Making a false Mode2” - 2004.
“The idea of this experiment was to ask one of the best painter deco cinema, Santiago,
broke the reproduction of masterpiece, to imitate one of the walls, which many consider
a classic graffiti artist Mode2 and to share his impressions. Santiago was immediately
excited about the challenge, especially since I had asked him to reproduce it with brushes
and not with spray paint or airbrush. I think he took three or four days to do this reproduction.
The first two days, I thought it could not be done, that the rendering was not good ... Then slowly,
he picked up his values​​, playing with layers of varnish, the texture of the canvas, and last
night finally appeared similar to that made ​​famous the original painting. Me stating that it
could go even further, but it was another job, “copied false”, whereas here the issue was
to share a way to paint and restore the energy of graffiti . “
