New York Grafifti Artist Crash


Born in New York City in 1961, by the middle of 1989, at the age of 28, Crash had been featured in dozens of one-man and group shows at galleries and museums around the world. Crash's paintings, watercolors and prints show the influence of a number of pop artists, including Lichtenstein, Rosenquist and Johns, yet they are convincingly original, retaining the power and humor of the hip-hop era. Unlike many painters whose perspective changes with their elevated status in the art world, Crash remains loyal to his inspiration.His large-scale paintings that were executed on the sides of the trains inspired his large scale paintings that are now in many collections throughout the world.

Win original Bill Blast NY Graffiti


BILL BLAST - "I love to make things containing a message. In the past, we did the same on the trains. When the trains passed, the people could see our messages. It was fantastic. Graffiti completely swallowed me. I was fascinated to see the huge paintings entering the subway stations. In the beginning some paintings stayed on the trains for 3 years.I started in the 70's when there was an unwritten law not to go over anyone else's piece. You could only challenge it by doing another piece. That manner of respecting each other has gone now.”

New York Graffiti Noc167


"Graffiti needs to be refreshing". NOC167 calls himself a Graffiti Prince because he's the only one with this graffiti name among the many graffiti artists calling themselves Kings. Like many graffiti writers did, 167 stands for the street number where he lives in New York. NOC167 started tagging when he was 11 years old. A few years later he became a member of the famous Death Squad and he became the president of that group. He was also a member of OTB (Out To Bomb), a group that was doing lots of trains. His famous train Style Wars represents the wars between the different graffiti letters styles during the seventies.
