Graffiti Art - Issue 48 - January / February 2020

Rebuilding bridges between the roots of street art and the reality of today’s urban contemporary
art is a necessity for us. So, we have included new columns in which you will learn about the
main destinations and spots of the international street art scene. Our first stop was Israel,
where creativity is as burning as the topics artists tackle. In the same spirit, we have followed
Jace on his expedition to confront his Gouzou with the ghosts of Chernobyl. An impossible
dialogue? Maybe not.
From public space hijackings to studio creations, references and detournements of antique
and classical works abound. What if urban art could reconcile the Ancients and the Moderns?
To touch on this complex matter, we have talked to the main players in this game.
Creative wealth draws on diverse inspirations. INTI’s solar universe takes root in a cultural melting
pot filled with mythological references and grounded in profound optimism. Ray Caesar has
surrounded himself with imaginary friends born out of his childhood traumas. Stephen Powers
and Wasted Rita find their creative material more readily: in the flaws of our consumer society
for the first one, and in wild feminism for the second. Yet both share a mastery of words and a
taste for calligraphic play. As for the plastic artists Supakitch and Grems, they put aesthetics
at the centre of their new visual expressions.
Last but not least, we have reviewed our logistics to limit our CO2 emissions. Let us each
do our part.
