Riassunto

Part of the 36 Chambers collection published by Drago, Dirt Don't Hurt condensed a decade of research and experimentation into succinct texts, graphic projects, drawings and photos, an eclectism pushed to excess which at once captures the interest and the limits of the editorial project. The Why Style collective was founded in Rome in 1996, by the union between the TRV (The Riot Vandals) crew and the artist Scarful, and by 2000 had grown to represent the evolution of the visual codes of Italians and European Graffiti Writing toward a complex artistic language.Published in 2007, the book's retrospective character is vital, allowing Dirt Don't Hurt to use Why Style to highlight the European reception of work done to rene the essential aesthetics of Graffiti Writing in the United States by artsits like Barry McGee and Steven Powers.

Su questo libro

L'autore

The Why Style collective was founded in Rome in 1996 through a fusion of some of the most talented and prolific Roman graffiti artists; Joe, Pane, Nico, Scarful and Stand. This group has now grown to represent European graffiti writing and its evolution towards an intricate artistic language. These artists often work with waste, transfiguring the garbage surrounding them into unlikely, stunning works of art. In this book, the collective chooses once again to follow this unique theme by exploring a different kind of waste: the dirt of human beings. It tackles some of the most complex and controversial issues in our society today through unconventional and inimitable iconography.
