Now there is a hella long list of Graffiti artists, and I
mean LONG! But in this post will be a review of who I think are the most Famous Graffiti Artists. Now I
too have a LONG list of artists who I feel are amazing at Graffiti but when it
comes to who the most Famous Graffiti
Artists are I can only really bring up 2-3 names:
Revok: Also known as Jason Williams, he is
LA’s most wanted by not only police but any and everyone who has a
passion for Graffiti! His art work is famous all around the world and he has
been featured in many galleries and art shows.
(LA Taco, 2015)
Lady Pink: Also
known as Sandra Fabara is a Graffiti artist from NYC whose story is almost as
compelling as her artwork. As a young woman Lady Pink lost her boyfriend due to
deportation so to try and deal with her grief she started tagging her
boyfriend’s name all around NYC. This lead to her career as Lady Pink becoming
the most photographed and interviewed Graffiti artist of her time.
(The Daily Drink, 2015)
Dondi: Now
Dondi is on my list because not only was his art about a movement, his art touched
millions of people around the world before and after his passing. Dondi was a
New York based artist who frequently traveled around the world to speak to
people about AIDS. His movement was felt worldwide and his death was a shock to
millions.
(The Boiler
House, 2015)
Who would you add to this list as the most Famous Graffiti Artists
of all time??
