PRYPIAT, UKRAINE - THE ABANDONED CITY

2012-01-29T23:52:00.005Z

On April 26, 1986 , an explosion occurred at the No. 4 reactor of the nuclear power station at Chernobyl, in the then-Soviet state of Ukraine. It was the worst disaster in the history of nuclear energy production. The radiation spread by the explosion resulted in thousands of deaths in Ukraine, Russia and surrounding nations by 2006. Soviet officials were criticized for not moving quickly enough to warn residents of the danger. Cities were eventually evacuated, and the government constructed an 18-mile exclusion zone, a closed-off area surrounding the decommissioned power plant.

The town where most of the employees of the Chernobyl plant lived, Prypiat, falls well within the exclusion zone. The city of 44,000 people is located less than 3 miles from the site of the disaster, and it was evacuated within 60 hours of the accident. It looks like Prypiat will remain abandoned for some time to come; it’s estimated that the area won’t be safe for human habitation for hundreds of years due to radiation.

A few intrepid souls have ignored the dangers that lie within the exclusion zone and entered Prypiat. They recorded and reported on the sights, and some have even looted the town. Prypiat’s become overgrown with vegetation: The soccer stadium has been replaced by a forest. Wildlife like bears and deer wander inside crumbling buildings. Prypiat looks like it’s frozen in time. Beds are still made with sheets, desks crowd old school rooms and decorations for a May Day celebration still adorn the town. Prypiat was once a fairly bustling city, with high-rise buildings and an amusement park. Today, the Ferris wheel stands still, and bumper cars rust. Vegetation is reclaiming the area that was once covered by concrete and humans.

And heres how it all began.

ABOUTPRODUCTSGALLERYNEWSRETAILWEBSHOPFAQCONTACT
To tell the story of Krink, the world’s quickest growing art supply line, you need to hear the story of KR: a terrible art student, a semi-successful vandal, and an entrepreneur who learned everything the hard way.

KR grew up in Queens in the ‘80s surrounded by graffiti writers, skaters, punks and B-boys. Graf was a part of the attitude as much as it was the landscape. Everything was very DIY: steal paint, illegal spots, make markers, emphasize your style, experiment with multiple tools and methods. A lot of it was also based in economy (or lack thereof): sharing and stealing were simply a necessary part of the creative process.

In the late ‘80s, graf on trains died and the art spilled out onto the streets and highways. Writers became more mobile and so styles and tools changed accordingly. Homemade markers that had been the norm were too messy to carry and homemade inks faded in the sun. Pilot-brand silver paint markers became the tool of the trade yet in many ways couldn’t meet this new generation of artist’s very specific needs.

In the early ‘90s KR moved to San Francisco. The scene he found there was thriving, yet different. Most writing took place in parking lots and specified spots. He arrived with a whole different attitude regarding materials and styles. Ignoring designated areas, he used the streets of SF as his very own research and development lab, experimenting with a lot of different tools and techniques to create bigger, drippy marker tags. He also began making his own inks, allowing him to get up bigger, bolder and, now armed with an endless supply of ink, much, much more.

From these trials and errors, KR’s ink, or Krink, was created. He shared his concoction with a few friends and soon it’s silver markings dominated the city.

In 1998 KR returned to NY and brought Krink back with him. Before long, it’s signature style was covering the streets of NY as well. This was around the same time writers began realizing they didn’t need to trade in their lifestyle in order to make a living. The Alife store had just opened and was quickly becoming a Mecca for street art. They told KR that if he would bottle and sell Krink, people would buy it and they offered to help: it was more of a creative project than a business plan, something to work on collaboratively. It sold and people liked it and it just kept growing from there.

Fast-forward to today and Krink products are shipping daily from a headquarters in Brooklyn to everywhere from CA to Moscow to Bangkok. The product line has grown to offer a number of different markers and inks that are unique to the market in their style, history and quality. And when the collaboration feels right, Krink continues to create limited-edition products with like-minded companies like Nike, Incase and Kidrobot. The trademark paint drip aesthetic has found its way into art and design becoming a standard for street-inspired artists on a global level.

It’s been 15 years and what started as a product created to fit the specific needs of graffiti writers has grown into a product line with a range of creative tools for creative thinkers. Watch closely over the next 15 as Krink continues to build its name as the premier art supply line for a new generation of artists.

MOLOTOW 127HS PAINT MARKER

2011-12-11T22:25:00.002Z

The 127HS already is a classic amongst pump-markers – equipped with an easily exchangeable 2mm fine-tip (downgradable to 1mm and 1,5mm) and available in 40 brilliant colors.

The 127HS-EF is a perfect outliner. It is equipped with an extra-fine 1mm tip, that can be exchanged with the 2mm or 1,5mm fine-tip at any time – available in black and white.

A special technical gimmick is the patented capillary system that guarantees an even and controlled dye distribution. Together with the Flowmaster™ pump-valve, that provides a controlled paint-flow, these markers show the best writing performance on almost every surface. The mixing balls inside the markers make sure that the highly concentrated pigments are evenly distributed within the paint for optimal writing results. Therefore it is recommended to shake your marker well before use. Both markers are refillable – ONE4ALL refills are available in 34 colors and two sizes: as 180ml and as 30ml bottle.

The highly pigmented, acrylic-based hybrid-paint is easily mixable with other ONE4ALL colors (for individual shading), it can be diluted with water (for translucent effects) or with acetone (for permanency on fatty surfaces). It works on almost every surface, is silk-matt, quick-drying, has an incredible opacity and is absolutely UV-resistant.

Both markers have perfect sketching characteristics.

You can buy them HERE at only £2.65

THE MOLOTOW STORY

2011-12-07T16:37:00.004Z

Since 1996 MOLOTOW has been developing innovative technologies that are optimizing paint application tools to the max.

To this day MOLOTOW PREMIUM is worldwide the first and only genuine artist spray can on the market – engineered with artists for artists. Paint and handling have been especially customized to their requirements. With that MOLOTOW™ PREMIUM revolutionized the aerosol technology and is to this day one of the most reliable spray cans on the market.

PREMIUM RELAUNCH 2011

After 14 years of success one of the most powerful tools for graffiti and street-art was ready to enter the next level. Together with MAD C MOLOTOW developed a sophisticated and unique range of graffiti and street-art colors.

YES, we did
• extend the PREMIUM range from 186 to 251+ colors
• develop 65+ new colors (including new artist colors and fluorescent neon colors) and
49 color gradients
• create new and supplemented existing color groups
• optimize numerous color-shades and rename others
• generate a new color sorting system (Sort.#)
• and refresh the classic PREMIUM look.

NO, we didn’t
• change anything about the reliable BELTON quality

MOLOTOW PREMIUM still is
• the only street-art spray-paint that comes with 4 times ground car pigments (Auto-K)
• genuinely permanent, highly opaque, UV- and weather-resistant
• equipped with the patented MOLOTOW technology (all-season, no-dust,
anti-drip, covers-all)
• made in Germany.

WITH ARTISTS FOR ARTISTS

Ever since it was MOLOTOWs major goal to create a graffiti- and street-art paint together with artists – because they know their demands in paint the best. In close cooperation with exceptional artist MAD C MOLOTOW now developed the most comprehensive graffiti and street-art color range worldwide. While MAD C was taking care of the color concept, resident artist and Beta-tester Stephane Helbert (Antistatik) analyzed opacity, luminance and hue of the new and selected existing colors at the MOLOTOW laboratories.

MAKING OF – THE MADC COLOR CONCEPT

In early 2010 MOLOTOW asked several writers – me included - what they’d change about the MOLOTOW color range. After painting the 700m² wall and working with almost all the colors in the PREMIUM range, I put together a list of missing tones and how I’d re-arrange the color system. MOLOTOW liked my ideas and approach and asked me to finalize my ideas.

For days and days I rearranged small MOLOTOW color cards, cut color charts into pieces and combined them with my MOLOTOW list. The result was a long list of new colors and many re-arrangements in the existing series. In a next step MOLOTOW sent my revisions off to their partner company Peter Kwasny GmbH who started mixing new colors and improving existing colors based on my system.

In late 2010 Kwasny invited MOLOTOW and me to a meeting in their company in Gundelsheim/ Germany. It was the first time I was able to look behind the scenes and see the full production process from the laboratory up to the finished and filled spray cans. This was a fantastic experience since the whole team was highly professional and motivated in each field. One word: perfectionism. For someone seeking perfectionism, there’s hardly anything better imaginable than being able to help your favorite tool becoming even better without losing its character.

At the Kwasny factory I was able to see my system in big scale. Here it became clear, that the system wasn’t perfect yet. So I went back to zero and started re-arranging and mixing once again with big color cards this time. After even more days and days of hard thinking, 65 new colors had come to life. The MOLOTOW colors were re-arranged into a nicely flowing system and at this point biggest spray can color range worldwide. From here MOLOTOW and Kwasny took it in their hand to create the new PREMIUM colors and re-arrange them to a new system based on my suggestions.

You can buy MOLOTOW PREMIUM here.

A few words from the producers.

From now on we make the full version of UNLIKE U available to all of you here. As we spent a lot of time and put in a lot of lifeblood on working on that movie we would like to give everybody the opportunity to see the outcome.

Maybe some of you have noticed that we as the moviemakers and producers are recently fighting legally for the ongoing distribution of UNLIKE U.

The Berlin transport company (BVG) has sued us in order to refrain us from distributing the movie regarding the places the action documented in UNLIKE U took place in.
To understand all of this you’ve got to see the movie yourself.
Recently more and more people are asking how they could support us.
Therefore we opened a support account for legal fees and for the preservation of UNLIKE U.

Thanks to everyone who is down with us,

Digbeth had a brush with fame this week, after appearing in BBC2′s The Culture Show. However, it’s not all good news. Apparently, our beloved Birmingham was recently voted the most boring city in all of Europe

Apparently “the soul’s been squeezed out of the centre of Birmingham”, but you can find it, along with lots of art, in Digbeth. The show visits Curzon Street Station, which was one of the venues for The Event recently. There’s also the appearance of Eastside Projects in an interview with Gavin Wade, an interview with Alex Lockett of Project Pigeon, and lots of local street art.

ULTIMATE GRAFFSPORTZ 2

2011-10-12T16:30:00.000+01:00

The essential book that covers the international trainwriting culture

The act of writing on trains became popular in the down-trodden times of the 70's in NYC on the subway trains traveling troughouth the Metropolitan area. Today, 40 years since its birth the act of writing on passenger trains has become a sub-culture spread troughout the world with its own language, codes and rituals.

Ten years after the first Ultimate Graffsportz we are back with the second "classic of the classics" when it comes to books about graffiti writing on trains.
