The In Crowd

Spotted via SOHH, info on a hip hop graffiti art exhibit that's been running since November 3 ending on December 17:

 

""Writers Convention" is the brainchild of Sacha Jenkins (SHR), who is better known today as one of the ego trip posse of writers than as a graf writer who painted New York subway trains once upon a time. But it was as a graffiti artist and poster artist that Jenkins (SHR) first began to express himself creatively during his youth in Astoria, Queens in the mid-Eighties. (He published his first 'zine -- Graphic Scenes & X-plicit Language -- at age 17.)

 

For "Writers Convention," Jenkins (SHR) reached out to 11 notable painters, many of whom have roots in aerosol art. He collaborated with each of them to create a series of 36X36-inch canvases. The artists include: Chino BYI, Claw, Cycle, Daze, Maceo Eagle, Free 5, Haze, Kaves, SP.One, Mint & Serf, and Jose Parla."
