SUPE “LE TEAM MANAGER” STUDIO VISIT

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Everyone’s favorite Parisian, Supe, aka Le Team Manager, let’s LRG into his studio for some black book sessions. Black books have served as the traditional sketchbook for writers since the first days of graff and Supe has been at them since he was first introduced to graffiti. He has been painting in the streets since the early 90′s and over the past years has begun to bring his work into the galleries, most recently with Lieu 37 in Paris. Supe continuously produces many zines each year and a limited edition book “Le Team Manager” was released through Classic last year. Along with Diego, Supe is a founding member of FMK crew.

Men’s Video Part Of The Year

Monday, January 30th, 2012

Men’s Video Part Of The Year was picked up by our homie Eric Jackson for his segment in People’s Good Look, beating out nominee Travis Rice. E-Jack’s part came together after working hard to recover from injuries that left him couched for the previous season.

“I was so nervous, I’m not going to lie,” said E-Jack after his win. “I’ve never even been nominated for anything. I went up against a giant—two of them! I can’t tell you how good it feels. To be rewarded with a TransWorld award, it’s insane. I’m really, really stoked.”

Congrats E-Jack!

1st To Do It – Larry Lovebone

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

It’s often disputed in the world of graffiti just who was the first writer to put their moniker up illegally. The vanguard of American graffiti artists, including REVOK, RIME and SABER contribute to the legend of Larry Lovebone, who many art historians have disregarded and omitted from the chronicles of style-writing due to his other cultural contributions during the sexual revolution in the 1960s. In his own words, Mr. Lovebone tells the tale of his infamous tag and its origins in his ability to bed copious amounts of women from every race, culture, creed and religion.
