Writing Vandalico?
Recentemente continuo ad imbattermi in questo termine, writing vandalico, e lo trovo fastidioso.
Si certo, come writer mi sento chiamato in causa però… è sgradevole perchè artatamente diffamatorio, falso perchè non esiste alcun writing vandalico, è un falso ideologico.
Il Graffiti Writing, a volte detto semplicemente Graffiti o a volte detto semplicemente Writing, è una forma d’espressione popolare quasi sempre mal sopportata ma che negli ultimi decenni ha visto una parte di esso trasformarsi in ciò che viene comunemente chiamato Street Art. Un fenomeno che ha gettato nello sconforto tutti i detrattori del writing perchè ha ottenuto, specie a livello internazionale, enorme successo di pubblico. E con il successo inizia a girare il denaro e con esso, inevitabili, i riconoscimenti.

Experiments in style – Summer 1995, Milano
A very hot summer day in Milano with my friends Zeta THP and Rein Lords Of Vetra.
It’s not that common to see pieces of mine with all these mellow curved lines. All letters are linked and the A is lowercase that’s quite unusual too… the light green insides were painted with common wall paint and all other colors were mixed from different cheap spray brands, except the lilla (oldschoolers will easily recognize that Dupli Color). I was really active during mid 90’s so I had to save cans somehow. Even though it’s impossible to tell looking only at the photo this one was a big one, 5 meters high.
Via Giambellino 1994
Just a quick one near the old market. I remember I painted it with these small cans.

Wanna have a beer with me?
When in the middle of the summer I was asked if I wanted to collaborate with Beck’s for some promotional t-shirts there was nothing else I could respond except.. yes please! What more could you desire during a crazy hot italian summer day if not having a cold beer while drawing some ideas?
Find ’em around right now in the shops and as they say… drink responsibly!
