"The pieces might sound like the result of some kind of graffiti-world version of Old-Timers’ Day at Yankee Stadium. But they are actually the works of a newly formed collective of (mostly) former graffiti writers in their 20s and 30s, who have embarked on an unusual citywide campaign to summon 50 or more of the most famous pieces of old-school graffiti out of the history books and back onto the streets. The project, called “Subway Art History,” is unusual not only because the artists are making the pieces with the permission of businesses, schools and other perhaps nostalgic owners of blank vertical space, but also because of the nature of the pieces themselves. They are expressions of homage in a subculture that has almost always been defined by fierce competition, intense striving for originality and a kill-the-elders attitude toward the past. "

 

 

 

who fuckin cares if seen did a whole car 20 years ago? a lot of people did whole cars 20 years ago, you dont take out 6 or 7 amazing highspots to get your picture perfect.,all you old washed ups who think that its okay should be benched for life, if you think its okay to go over someones highspots because your art is more important???

you a coward, and you should get a new hobby, old man. sucks when its your people right? , yeah you old, washed up , and a coward cause i know you got my voice mail and my number aint changed in years.

 

real graffiti and youth vigor over old farts creating rules and hating from their rocking chairs any day all day, you cant recreate the rules of graffiti. if you are to old to abide by them become a real estate agent and stop hating on young cats who can still swing their cocks and get it hard too.

And just cuz your up doesn't mean your not a toy and wack. There's mad niggas that are wack and toy and have a lot of ups. But there shit isn't noticable......you notice after a while cuz it's there. But, you don't see it cuz it's fresh. I can pass a whole toy wall and not notice it, just looks like a blob or a blur of wackness. Toys don't even use the rite color schemes or rite paint.....truth.

cap should come out his wheelchair and rag all that legal bullshit.

 

graffiti's history is being nicturated upon by these bitches, that shit is legal and sponsored by the same cocksuckers that would wish u get jailtime for your endeavors.

 

thats a big pretty piece of graffiti up there that they recreated, legally, with a dozen losers

 

that piece is to graffiti what rick ross and lil weezy is to hip hop music. be polite to ya mastas. stop bombing sick spots and fall in line with these dusty ol no magic left faggots.

Normally, I'm all for tributes to older famous graffiti as done by a few writers (illegally) on freights, etc.

 

But these legal things showing up all over the ghandi, blade (in sunset park), etc. are all garbage. Legal with no soul and done poorly might I add.

 

word. no taste.
