Описание: This is a nostalgic, visual account of the best time and place to be a graffiti writer. In the 1980s, brothers Kenny, a.k.a. KEY, and Paul, a.k.a. CAVS, immersed themselves in the graffiti scene in the Boogie Down Bronx, dutifully photographing hundreds of pieces on now-discontinued MTA subway cars and capturing their proud comrades before, during, and after the act. "Bombing" "White Elephants" with their pilot markers and documenting them with their cameras, which they always carried, they were on the ride of their lives--until 1989, when the last painted train was removed from service. Tags by names like QUIK, IZTHEWIZ, and many others appear here in color exposures, and dozens of artists share stories and drop knowledge with no filter. A foreword by graffiti historian Henry Chalfant, coproducer of Style Wars--the seminal documentary on New York graffiti and hip-hop culture--kicks things off.

Описание: See the New York City transit system at a time the Metropolitan Transit Authority (MTA) has tried hard to forget. In the early 80s, graffiti writer Paul Cavalieri, who writes "CAVS," was drawn to the colorful tags on trains. He started learning train schedules so he could snap works by many writers of the time. This is a compilation of subway graffiti from 1983 to 1989, when the MTA announced that its fleet was entirely graffiti-free. More than 325 color photos capture everything from motion-bombed train interiors riddled with pilot marker tags to epic works covering whole exteriors, top to bottom. Artists tell their tales of adventure throughout and reminisce about working on live third rails, navigating the complex subway system to find their works, and witnessing graffitis gradual disappearance from the trains. This book presents a nostalgic look at 1980s New York City and the street artists that gave it soul.

Описание: The fabled New York nightclub Area opened its doors in September 1983 and virtually overnight became the nexus of one of the most vibrant downtown art and party scenes in New York. Despite its short-lived history (it closed in 1987), Area was the club where the A-list went to see and be seen, and its wildly creative invitations were the hottest tickets in town. Area was the creation of four young guys from California, among them author Eric Goode, who immediately grasped that the eighties were going to turn artists into rock stars, and they did just that through their club, starting with their friends Jean- Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring. An art project on a monumental scale (the owners spent tens of thousands of dollars to redo the space with a different art theme every six weeks), Area brought together the worlds of young and beautiful artists, musicians, fashion designers, writers, socialites and celebrities and became the place where important people went to make fabulous spectacles of themselves in outlandish ways. It also became the favourite subject of a circle of young and uber-talented photographers, including Volker Hinz, Nan Goldin, Patrick McMullan and Richard Pandiscio, providing a window into a time and place legendary in the annals of New York nightlife. Drawing from an incredibly rich visual and oral archive, Eric Goode and his sister Jennifer have selected the best photographs and most memorable anecdotes to tell the full story of the club and its people. Writers who partied at Area and who helped document the scene will also be included, such as Glenn O'Brien, Stephen Saban, Michael Musto, and Jay McInerney, as well as anecdotes from many of the artists and celebrities who played there, such as Chuck Close, Luc Sante, Malcolm McLaren, Boy George, Diane Brill, to name but a few. A rich evocation of the look and feel of the art and fashion of the 80s, Area is a nostalgic chronicle and memoir of an exciting art and party scene that can never be repeated or forgotten.
