Graffiti Taxonomy


So while thinking of my boo/other half, I stumbled upon this fantastical website with this Graffiti Alphabet break down.





 Evan Roth has been breaking down the Graffiti Alphabet for years. Graffiti Taxonomy presents isolated letters from various graffiti tags, reproduced in similar scales and at close proximity. The intent of these studies is to show the diversity of styles as expressed in a single character. In these photographs, the ‘S' is reproduced from photographs of tags taken in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, while the 'A' is reproduced from tags from Central Park North to 125th St. in Harlem. 
This project is still in progress.

Black Panther Retrospective: Emory Douglas

From 1967 to 1980 Emory Douglas created the visual branding for the civil rights movement. As the arts and culture officer for the Black Panthers, he uniquely stylised illustrations for leaflets, posters, and newspapers depicting black people in a way that hadn't been seen in mainstream media. 






On August 18, a retrospective of Douglas's work will open at The Outsiders on Greek Street in London.
