Painting The Town
vom 28.10.2009
"While Hunts Point residents seem to accept graffiti, graff artists still clash with law enforcement. When rapper Big Pun died in 2000, TATS CRU painted a wall in honor of the legendary Bronx singer. After finishing the wall, however, they were quietly arrested around the corner and away from the grievers to prevent inciting a riot, BG said. In the end, he said, it was the community’s outrage that hastened their release. With the community board protesting on one phone and the building owner revealing TATS CRU had obtained permission to paint on the other, police let them out the back-door."
Today we had a nice read over at The Uptown Chronicle from New York. The article "Painting the Town" report about the TATS Cru and Graffiti in New York City. Some quotes by BG, Nicer or south african Graffiti artist Motel7 who have painted with How and Nosm in Hunts Point lately. An random journalistic work but worth to read, jump
