Description
Stylish lettering has at all times been of great importance inside the graffiti and street art movements. Over the past 25 years many artists have pushed the practice into a powerful stylized calligraphy. The Art of Writing Your name follows the arc of this movement from its earliest practitioners, like Chaz Bojorquez to more contemporary adopters, such as Usugrow, profiling 35 of the worlds most up to date urban calligraphers along the best way. Niels SHOW Meulman is a foundational artist within the movement, but others such as Cryptik, JonOne, LAtlas, SABER, Faust, and Vincent Abadie Hafez also light the best way. Graffiti fanatics, hand lettering fans, street art junkies, calligraphy lovers, and type enthusiasts all have something to be informed from this fascinating tome. Christian Hundertmark, editor of the ongoing Art of Insurrection series co-authored The Art of Writing Your Name along side Patrick Hartl, creating a comprehensive sourcebook within the process.
