::New York Graffiti Field Identification Guide::
New York City’s streets are home to a wide range of street artists, graff writers, or vandals, depending on what vernacular you prefer. For most New Yorkers it’s easy to appreciate the more conventionally beautiful of the artists’ work, while the murky and destructive world of the tagger is a seeming blight on the city. As they function in practice, the two schools feed off each other and depend on each other to breed competition and innovation. The story of New York Graffiti is the quintessential story of struggling young artists / criminals. Many come from humble backgrounds, some are spoiled rich kids, most have personal demons. A few go on to make serious money in the art world while most sputter out as they settle in to their thirties…or are maimed, go to prison, or die. Here are just a few of the this city’s most recognizable artists.

::Diary of the Dead::
Compared with other first-person motion-sickness horror pictures like The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield, George A. Romero’s Diary of the Dead is weak tea, yet there’s enough social commentary (and innovative splatter) to acidulate the brew—to remind you that Romero, even behind the curve, makes other genre filmmakers look like fraidy-cats. This is not a continuation of the living-dead saga that began with the 1968 masterpiece Night of the Living Dead. It’s set in the age of the Internet, from which the grim narrator, Debra (Michelle Morgan), downloads unedited footage of a TV correspondent getting chomped by a supposedly dead crime-scene victim. The movie is a video within a video within a video: Diary of the Dead is supposed to be Debra’s cut of her boyfriend Jason’s cut of The Death of Death, a first-person documentary of the reanimation of the dead that interrupted the shooting of Jason’s low-budget horror movie about the reanimation of a mummy. Got that? Reality is mega-mediated. — Read More —>
