This exhibition beings together over 20 artists to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Charlie Ahearn ( @twincharlie )’s seminal film ‘Wild Style’🔥

In the words of the curator Carlo McCormick-

“While ‘Wild Style 40’ is in many ways a celebration of the graffiti art form that emerged out of this time and starred in the movie, it is centered within a broader circle of participation, including key figures from Colab, who were also forging new kinds of urban art, artists who were major supporters and benefactors of graffiti, the photographers who not only captured this movement but embodied it, and a few who have somehow carried these traditions with an authenticity and ingenuity that goes beyond what hip hop sounds like or graffiti looks like today.”
