Remember that the graffiti scene in the 1970’s and 1980’s was a subculture that was very important to the evolution of the actual art that came from it (which we see in the 1990’s until now). In the future “graffiti art” as we think of it today will be known as one of the few original artforms that came from the U.S.A. There are not many artforms that can say that. To me this is something important to write about and I thank the writer for understanding this. Those who critisize him are obviously ignorant to what they are talking about. They do not know what is like to come from a city where the people, architecture, and system of things tells you everyday that “you are worth nothing and do not matter”. That frame of thought was the spark that started it all.
This is an excellent book that delves deep into the lives and culture of graffiti artists.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2W9581V6A9SBS This movie is brilliant. I am so amazed by the superior filmmaking styles and techniques. I wouldn’t be surprised if this film won an academy award some day. I wish that they would start making more classic films like the golden era of 1920s era prohibition. That would be a really exciting time and a great way to stimulate the economy through gambling and fun times.Best of Yukmouth

This dvd shows some of the biggest names in graffiti art. The dvd gets the opinion of each graffiti artist and a guy who tries to get rid of tagging in his city. This is a good dvd I just didn’t like the atittude of most of the graffiti artists because they make it seem like in order to make it big you have to go through them first and that you must go through tough times to be respected. These aren’t the BEST graff. artist they are just well known or over rated. Entertaining film but don’t assume that graffiti is what they say it is, they have their own opinions. These graff artists act like they know everything and it gets annoying but what makes this a good film is the images you see and their passion for it.

Like most of Doug Pray’s films (Scratch, Surfwise, Big Rig), he takes a subculture that has strong negative connotations and puts a human face to it. Like most people, I have had mixed feeling about graffiti. I’ve seen some amazing murals by graf artists, but the signature scrawls you see everywhere tend to piss me off. But after I saw this film, at least now I look at it in a different way. Great stuff. I will never look at graffiti the same way again.

I wonder if Mr Snyder would like people to “tag” his house… Why not organize a group of ‘fans’ to graffiti his place every day? I bet he would love it! =) He does not care about all the people that has to remove it from their properties and even loves the ‘thrill’ of being a vandal. I think someone had a very over-protective mom back in the day! =) Grow up buddy! You are a College teacher now!
The only positive thing that I got from it was this: “No one wants to spend time and energy to do graffiti that will be painted over in twenty-four hours, because there’s no fame” Just a reminder for the rest of us about how to deal with this issue.

Finally a scholarly analysis of graffiti that’s not stuck in the 1970s. Anyone doing urban ethnography should check this book out. The author’s methodology appendix offers up innovative and creative research techniques. Plus, anyone following Shepard Fairey or Banksy will appreciate the discussion of the career trajectories less well-known writers take as they move away from the street.
