It was in these years that the culture of Hip Hop and Graffiti Writing spread to Italy, laying the foundation for the development of a prominent national phenomenon that is now ingrained in every Italian city. These pioneering artists guide us in a photographic journey and tell stories of emotions, friendships and rivalries. Above all, they exhibit their creativity, originality and research, inspired by the American and European giants that preceded them. By publishing the works of the artists that started writing in those years, we hope to pay tribute to this culture and its development. This book is dedicated to those who have made the history of Graffiti Writing Milanese. ISBN: 978-88-98565-23-8 Born in Milan in 1972, KayOne lives and works in Milan.

Publication: January 2018 9 STREET ART NEW CROSS THE STREETS CONCEPT BY PAULO LUCAS VON VACANO There is only one international vanguard that brings together the young, the marginalised and the minorities in the amniotic sac of globalization: Street Art. Cross the Streets is a multimedia exhibition that historicizes the street art phenomenon, the most globally influential art movement of the last 40 years. For the first time in Rome, a counterculture—by now part of the mainstream—enters a museum, the MACRO Museum of Contemporary Art in Rome. No other city has such an untouched history and so it is fitting that Rome begins its cultural regeneration from its streets and its past. The project was inspired by Paulo Lucas von Vacano’s research on Street counterculture and all of its derivatives. As he explains in the exhibition catalog, “the street watches and the street governs [...] The revolution occurs when the street enters the museum and the museum becomes the street. Those who survive the streets, rule the world!” ISBN: 978-88-98565-22-1 € 40.00 - $ 42.00 - £ 35.00 The exhibition catalog with it’s 240 colored pages documents this extraordinary event that involved the biggest names of international Street Art Street Art such as, Shepard Fairey AKA Obey the Giant, WK, Chaz Languages: EN IT 23 x 28 cm / 9 x 11 in Bojorquez, DAIM, Evol, Invader, Swoon, Mike Giant, to name a few. 240 Pages - 245 Photos A seperate section relates to the 40 years of graffiti history in Rome’s Softcover metro, with interviews and original material presented by key players Publication: April 2017 Why Style, TRV and many others. 10 STREET ART NEW DECADES 5 ARTISTS FOR 5 DECADES OF POP CULTURE AAVV Five artists – five decades of pop culture! Some of the most talented Roman Street Artists (Solo, Diamond, Riccardo Beetroot, Luis Gomez and Lucamaleonte) will reinterpret the second half of the twentieth century, according to their own styles and perspectives: each will represent a decade, passing through costumes and socio- political events significant to that half-century. Five decades are backed by Riccardo Beetroot’s bas-reliefs, representing the realities of the Roman townships in the 1950s, followed by the merging of Solo with the liberty of Diamond: the duet of their canvases reminiscent of iconic sociopolitical events of the ’60s and’ 70. The following decade, however, is stigmatized by Lucamaleonte’s strict incisor techniques, while Luis Gomez will ISBN: 978-88-98565-28-3 conclude the exposition, interpreting a chiaroscuro of the ’90s through € 25.00 - $ 25.00 - £ 25.00 musical suggestions that characterized his adolescence.
