Fashion Moda is most often associated with graffiti art and its acceptance into the art world through such figures as Fekner, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jenny Holzer, and Keith Haring.[8] In February 1980, Fekner began working in, around, and out of Fashion Moda, a storefront for experimental art and cultural exchange, and an outpost for showcasing graffiti, breakdancing and rapping. Through his association with Fashion Moda, Fekner went to Charlotte Street and stenciled six spray painted messages including Decay, Broken Promises, Falsas Promesas, Last Hope, Broken Treaties and Save Our School. When Presidential Candidate Ronald Reagan stood in front of Fekner’s stencils, Decay and Broken Promises on Charlotte Street in the South Bronx on August 5, 1980 at the People's Convention

NYPD Commissioner vows to tackle 'growing' graffiti vandalism problem

 

Bill Bratton called tagging 'the first sign of urban decay,' but didn't give any details on his plans to stop the vandals.

 

BY THOMAS TRACY NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Wednesday, April 30, 2014, 3:45 AM

 

"Taggers beware. Police Commissioner Bill Bratton is coming for you.

 

The city’s top cop said the next quality-of-life crime he plans to tackle is graffiti vandalism, which he calls “the first sign of urban decay.”

 

“It’s one of the issues I’m going to be focusing on,” he told WNYC radio host Leonard Lopate Wednesday, explaining that he has already informed Mayor de Blasio of his plans.

 

“It’s my sense that graffiti is growing in this city again and as a city we need to take it on,” he said.

 

Bratton didn’t elaborate on how he planned to tackle graffiti vandalism.

 

In March, the number of panhandler arrests skyrocketed threefold after Bratton said cops were going to focus on them.

 

It was not immediately clear if graffiti complaints and arrests are on the rise, but residents in the outer boroughs have said they have seen an increase in tags on neighborhood streets over the last few months."

"Graffiti is a constant battle…It’s one of the issues I’m going to be focusing on – I’ve already spoken to the mayor about my sense that graffiti is growing in the city now again. And, as a city, we need to basically take it on because that’s the first sign of urban decay."
