35 Black Raindrops
1990s. The London Underground system is emerging from the austerity of the 1980s. New budgets have created the financial backing for security fencing and CCTV. Despite this, graffiti persists on the trains and the playground of subterranean tunnels and infrastructure…
Two rival graffiti crews come head to head when a shadowy figure from the past threatens the balance on the lines. The old master ‘Stainer’ has warned of an oncoming war in which the trains themselves are the prize and, simultaneously, the target for destruction!

CAVS, Just a Vandal from the Bronx: New York City Graffiti, 1980s-2010s
CAVS (Paul Cavalieri), a prolific and influential Bronx graffiti writer for nearly 40 years, shares hundreds of photos of his work, his progression as an artist, and stories of the New York City graffiti scene through the decades in one colourful volume. From the Wakefield neighbourhood in the northern borough of the Bronx, CAVS tells his own story in his own singular voice. With a chapter examining each, he reminisces and documents his family and background, his beginnings in the Bronx, and his work on walls, subways, freight trains, and trucks. He covers dodging cops, working with other writers, and being one of the East Coast pioneers of freight train writing in the mid- to late ’80s, bringing the reader into that specific time and place now so changed. While CAVS has changed, too, now painting only with permission, he is still a vandal at heart.Read more

From the Platform 2: More NYC Subway Graffiti, 1983-1989
This is a nostalgic, visual account of the best time and place to be a graffiti writer. In the 1980s, brothers Kenny, a.k.a. KEY, and Paul, a.k.a. CAVS, immersed themselves in the graffiti scene in the Boogie Down Bronx, dutifully photographing hundreds of pieces on now-discontinued MTA subway cars and capturing their proud comrades before, during, and after the act. Bombing White Elephants with their pilot markers and documenting them with their cameras, which they always carried, they were on the ride of their lives — until 1989, when the last painted train was removed from service. Tags by names like QUIK, IZTHEWIZ, and many others appear here in colour exposures, and dozens of artists share stories and drop knowledge with no filter. A foreword by graffiti historian Henry Chalfant, co-producer of Style Wars — the seminal documentary on New York graffiti and hip-hop culture — kicks things off.Read more

An insider’s guide to discovering the world’s best urban art. From amazing wall murals to Banksy’s stencils and Invader’s mosaics, we showcase 140 creative hotspots across 42 cities and tell you how to find them, as well as introduce pioneering artists and interview those who shaped the movement.
