Product Description

As a pioneer of the emerging graffiti movement during the early seventies, Stay High 149 has left an indelible mark on New York City and graffiti culture. While his tags covered entire train cars in NYC, his work first reached a wide audience with the publication of Norman Mailers seminal book Faith of Graffiti in 1974. An innovative writer, Stay High 149 was the first to adopt an icon rather than a typographic tag as a nom de guerre his Smoker was a subversive spin-off of the logo developed for the 1960s classic spy thriller television show The Saint. His Voice of the Ghetto tag began as an anonymous declaration of existence on behalf

The Legend Continues 20 July 2010

By BigInMogadishu - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase

Graffiti's most celebrated and influential artist, Stay High 149 (whose halo and smoker stick figure inspired a generation of street artists) personifies an epochal period in 20th Century, urban America history. This long overdue book penetrates the artists's unvarnished core -- the ups/downs and in-betweens of Wayne Roberts' (aka Stay High 149 aka Voice of the Ghetto) life. Wayne's peripatetic journey becomes a metaphor for perseverance against all odds. Teeming with exclusive pictures and unfiltered stories, the importatnt work by Sky Farrell and Chris Pape (Freedom) traces Stay High's tumultuous life from the 60s streets of the South Bronx to the posh galleries of New York, London, Milan and Paris in 2010. "Stay High 149" belongs in the library of any serious contemporary art enthusiast. The legend continues....
