This collection of unique works by 150 Los Angeles graffiti and tattoo artists represents an unprecedented collaboration across the city’s diverse artistic landscape. Many graffiti artists carry sketchbooks, called black books, and they ask crew members and others whose work they admire to inscribe their books with lettering or drawings. A few years ago, the Getty Research Institute invited artists, including Angst, Axis, Big Sleeps, Chaz, Cre8, Defer, EyeOne, Fishe, Heaven, Hyde, Look, ManOne, and Prime, to consider the idea of a citywide graffiti black book. During visits to the Getty Center, the artists viewed rare books related to calligraphy and letterforms, including works by Albrecht Dürer and Leonardo da Vinci. The artists instantly recognized the connections to their own practices and were particularly drawn to a liber amicorum (book of friends), a form of autograph book popular in the seventeenth century. Passed from hand to hand, it was filled with signatures, poetry, and coats of arms, like a black book from another era. Inspired by this meeting of minds across centuries, these artists became both creators and curators, crafting their own pages and inviting others to contribute. Eventually 150 Los Angeles artists decorated 143 individual pages. These were bound together into an exquisite artists’ book that became known as the Getty Graffiti Black Book. This publication reproduces each page from the original artists’ book and recounts the story of an unprecedented collaboration across the diverse artistic landscape of Los Angeles.

For most people having to wait at a railroad crossing for a long freight train to roll by seems like an eternity and a giant waste of time. Those people can't wait for a bridge to be built so that they can just get where they are going as quickly as they can without having to wait on some train to roll through at 15 MPH. They've got stuff to do!Myself, and thousands of other people around the world take this intrusion into our personal time as an opportunity to witness one of the greatest traveling art shows known to man.Thousands of artworks, created by amateurs and professional artists' alike roll from city to city across our entire continent.From USA & Canada to Mexico. From the East Coast to West Coast these rolling artworks come to us, instead of the other way round'. Stand by the tracks for hours like a lot of us do and witness the amazing things you'll see rolling by anywhere between 5 MPH and 50 MPH.These pieces are, however, temporary. They are constantly being painted over by other writers, or the cars are scrapped. Preserving these pieces is an important undertaking that thousands of people are working on daily. This is my little contribution to the preservation of this rich history.
