Writing graffiti is as ancient as cave painting and tagging is about as basic as a dog marking its territory by urinating against the wall. Even so, in addition to being ascribed a value, graffiti has developed an aesthetic.
As such, the artist's medium has changed even though the intent is the same, namely to express something. The 13 local and international artists presented at AMPM all do so in fresh, colorful and innovative ways.
From the lettering and anime-inspired work of Jahan, to the graphic designs of Winston and combo lettering of Dabs1, the Group 13 Exhibition shows off the best in local street art.
Trick and Utah's photo installation, Setr's freight train documentary and the film Reefer Madness add to the mix. There will also be DJs, refreshments and an art raffle at the opening.
