Doze Green: a Volta 82 Gansevoort Street New York, NY 10014 Doze Green: A Volta Opening reception: Thursday, November 14, 6–9 PM New York, NY – Allouche Gallery presents new works by legendary New York artist Doze Green. A Volta, opening on Thursday November 14th, marks the return to the city that inspired and defined Green’s long standing career. Concurrently, this show offers a comprehensive look into the evolution of the artist's style leading up to his present creative departure, which is deeply influenced by the raw nature of Alto Paraíso de Goiás, Brazil, where Doze Green lives now. A Voltar, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 56 x 74 inches Artist Statement: "This collection marks the evolution of my 30 plus years of studio work, originating from the explosively creative liminal space I found myself early in my career, both as a writer and breakdancer, heavily influenced by Dondi White, Rammellzee and other mid 70s graffiti luminaries, pulling from this time the essence and energy of New York street art. A Volta simultaneously deconstructs and interrogates the transition towards the figurative and abstract within my personal oeuvre and contemporary graffiti. Transcendental archetypes and neoclassical themes are reconfigured by my current expressive relationship to the world. Moving to Brazil shaped a new, deeper understanding of my visual language, catalyzing a new relationship to color, compositions and figures relating to the mythical, the astrological and the powerful energy of our Afro-Caribbean visual legacy." Foundation, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 78.5 x 150.5 inches For more information please contact Allouche Gallery at [email protected] or visit our website www.allouchegallery.com Press Contact: [email protected] .

This wall is a collaboration between two Latin American artists, Abstrk from Miami and Entes from Peru. The artists combine fictional characters with portraits of locally and nationally renown graffiti writers like Lady Pink, Reds, Verse, and the curator of the Museum of Graffiti, Mare139. The faces are so cohesive that only a trained eye can differentiate between Abstrk’s vampire style and Entes’ signature characters. Be sure to grab a pamphlet inside the Museum so you can play “What’s the difference?”. 2. Artist Ezo has been painting aerosol art since 1979. His interest in documenting the ephemeral graffiti artform led him to founding one of the first internet graffiti directories in 1997. Fast forward to 2020, Ezo still focuses on preserving graffiti history as evidenced by him painting this portrait of Phase II who is considered to be a legend in the graffiti art movement and is generally credited with originating the "bubble letter" style of aerosol writing. Phase II passed away on December 20, 2019, two weeks after the opening of the Museum of Graffiti.

  • Niels SHOE Meulman Artist Portfolio
    NIELS „SHOE“ MEULMAN (1967, THE NETHERLANDS) Niels Shoe Meulman (a.k.a. Shoe) is an internationally known artist and graphic designer. He is born, raised and based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Meulman began tagging ‘Shoe’ in 1979 and became a graffiti legend by the time he was 18. In the eighties, he met New York artists like Dondi, Rammellzee, Haze, Quik and Keith Haring. He then formed the Crime Time Kings with Bando from Paris and Mode2 from London. To get h er they gave graffiti in Europe its own distinctive style. In the nineties, he furthered his technique by apprenticing under the Dutch graphic design master Anthon Beeke. In the years after, he ran his own design company, Caulfield & Ten s i n g and was partner in advertising agency Unruly, which he later turned into a brand for silk scarves and a gallery. Niels Shoe Meulman revolutionized the art of writing with Calligraffiti, an art form that fuses calligraphy and graffiti. He launched this movement in 2007 with a successful solo exhibition in Amsterdam. Since then, his Calligraffiti pieces (signed NSM) have been shown in various international exhibitions and are part of several museum collections. His recent painting style can be described as abstract expressionism with a calligraphic origin.

  • FUTURA2000 (Born Leonard Hilton Mcgurr in New York City) Is a Graffiti Pioneer Who Began Painting Subways in the Late 1970S
    FUTURA2000 (born Leonard Hilton McGurr in New York City) is a graffiti pioneer who began painting subways in the late 1970s. In 1980 he painted the iconic whole car titled “Break,” which was recognized for its abstraction, rather than a focus on lettering. This painting established some of the enduring aesthetic motifs and approaches FUTURA2000 would explore over the decades that followed. FUTURA2000 was among the first graffiti artists to be shown in contemporary art galleries in the early 1980s. His paintings were shown at Patti Astor’s Fun Gallery and Tony Shafrazi, alongside those of his friends Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Rammellzee, DONDI, and Kenny Scharf. MoMA PS1 brought the artists together in their landmark 1981 exhibition, “New York / New Wave.” In this period, FUTURA2000 illustrated the sleeve cover for The Clash’s ‘This is Radio Clash’ seven-inch single. He accompanied The Clash on their Combat Rock tour, spray painting in the background while the band played. He painted as an accompaniment to demonstrations of break dance by the Rock Steady Crew, and concerts by Grand Master Flash and Afrika Bombataa. With the Clash, he recorded the vinyl “The Escapades of Futura 2000,” a manifesto for graffiti. By the 1990s, as the commercialization of global street culture in the 1990s inspired collaborations with fashion and lifestyle brands, FUTURA2000’s work moved toward a more refined expression of his abstract style. Commissions from brands such as Supreme, A Bathing Ape, Stüssy, and Mo' Wax saw his artwork canonized as an elemental component of cross-genre street aesthetic. He has collaborated with Nike, BMW, Comme des Garçons, Louis Vuitton, and Off-White.

Jung’s concept of “synchronicity” means: the coincidence of multiple events which seemingly have no causal link but show many similarities. Graffiti artists tagging their names on the interior of subway carriages are born from the grave of King. “Tags” as the expression of identity play the same role as once the prehistoric artist praising the imprint of his own hand on the rock face.

  • The Life and Art of Jean-Michel Basquiat
    PERFORMING BLACKNESS AT THE HEART OF WHITENESS: THE LIFE AND ART OF JEAN-MICHEL BASQUIAT Christopher F. Johnston A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2008 Committee: Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Irina Stakhanova Graduate Faculty Representative Ellen Berry Khani Begum © 2008 Christopher F. Johnston All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Andrew Hershberger, Advisor Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1960 to a Haitian father and a Puerto Rican mother, Jean-Michel Basquiat rose to prominence as a painter in the 1980s art world. When he died in 1988 at age twenty-seven from a drug overdose, he had achieved more fame and wealth than any black artist in history; he remains today the world’s most recognizable black painter. This study seeks to show how Basquiat’s racial and cultural background shaped his life and art. In its first three chapters, this study examines Basquiat’s experiences in New York City in the 1960s, 70s, and 80s in a variety of contexts including his neighborhoods, schools, the graffiti movement, avant-gardism, and the art world. This study finds that the artist’s blackness often made him racially hyper-visible and the target of racism and stereotyping. It also finds that of all the artistic traditions that Basquiat was exposed to and involved in, his experiences with performance art had the most enduring impact on him artistically. In its final two chapters, this study looks at Basquiat’s public persona and art. Chapter Four covers the way the artist walked, talked, dressed, wore his hair, acted in interviews, posed for photographs, and behaved in public in general.
