Graff, Tag and Bomb: the Influence of Graffiti

Start date: Tuesday, March 3, 2009
Event is ongoing: Until Saturday, March 28, 2009

Graff, Tag and Bomb: the Influence of Graffiti features recent works by artists who incorporate the techniques and aesthetic of graffiti culture and are informed by their own experience as graffiti artists. These artists navigate a balance between high and low culture, fine and popular art, and an art practice that is deemed simultaneously illegitimate and marketable.

In conjunction with the exhibition, the UNT Art Gallery has commissioned local graffiti crew Sour Grapes to create a temporary outdoor installation adjoining the art building. Documentation of the mural writing will be displayed in the gallery throughout the exhibition
