About the Item
BLADE subway graffiti drawing 1992:
A stunning, highly collectible original work from Blade - King of Graffiti. Executed in 1992, the work was created by Blade as a mock-up entry for the graffiti book “After Eights Still Rollin.” Artists from around the world completed these prints with their own hand subway car designs. BLADE apparently did not send in this drawing, since it does not appear in the book.
A timeless graffiti artwork from the "king of Graffiti" - a true legend who is said to have painted over 5,000 graffiti cars & is widely admired by the who's who of the international graffiti world.
Marker drawing on offset print.
Dimensions: 17 x 5.5 Inches.
Unique. Hand-signed on the upper right.
Minor signs of handling and aging; good overall vintage condition.
About BLADE:
Steven Ogburn, better known as BLADE, grew up in the Bronx. By 1980, he would become one of the most influential figures in graffiti. Blade began writing his name on the inside of buses and on the exterior of post office trucks in 1971 with small markers. In 1972, he hit his first train at the Baychester lay-up. His style began with stick letters like the rest of his peers until 1974 when he began painting in his signature "bubble letters."
BLADE hit his last train with fellow graffiti artist SEEN in 1984. He was introduced to the art world by famed photographs Henry Chalfant and Martha Cooper, and had his first solo show at the Stellweg Seguy Gallery in New York in 1984. BLADE’s work has been shown in many individual and group shows in notable venues including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Musée National des Monuments Français, the Stedelijk Museum, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Brooklyn Museum. His work is in the collections of Willem Speerstra, Yaki Kornblitt and Vincent Vlasblom, and fellow artist KAWS. {source: Eazel}
