Streetwear Culture: Toasting Graffiti ArtistsA French exhibition is enhancing the international recognition of graffiti culture. The exhibit is called “Tag,” and it’s being held at the Grand Palais in Paris. Four New York pioneers will be present: Toxic, Quik, Seen and Rammellzee. The exhibition, which runs through April 26, was commissioned and organized by Alain-Dominique Gallizia, a French architect who became interested in graffiti as an art form when he encountered examples of it at his work sites. 150 graffiti artists prepared works for display in the show; most are from the United States or France, but countries including Australia, Brazil, Chile and Japan are also represented.
