Contemporary style, design and culture festival Carbon hosted an exhibition of works, new and old, by Chaz Bojorquez, the Los Angeles based artist whose refined cholo graffiti rivals any master calligrapher. The exhibition titled, LA Handstyles, put his unique and influential form of writing on display for the first time in Australia. Older works on paper, as well as recent works and painted decks (following the success of the ‘Trece’ collection) all painted in monochromatic colors. LA Handstyles will be on display at NGV Studio Space at Federation Square in Melbourne, Australia through Sunday May 6th.
