Urban Art Legends: A Conversation with DAZE, Alan KET & Nick Walker at The Museum of the City of New York

In just forty years, what was once viewed by many as mindless vandalism – graffiti – has grown into a highly valued, socially relevant urban art form found in galleries and museums around the world—as well as on walls and trains. Join pioneering urban artists Alan KETNick Walker, and DAZE, the star of our exhibition, Chris “Daze” Ellis: The City is My Muse, to launch KET’s new book, Urban Art Legends (LOM Art, 2015).  The will discuss the evolving status of graffiti and street art as an art form and reflect on their choices to challenge classical ideas of art through this uniquely urban medium.
