Dan Witz – 30 years of artwork illegal and otherwise

Dan Witz must be called a pioneer of street art, starting to airbrush colibris to New York’s walls more than 30 years ago. He commented on drug dealer spots with his Hoody project in 1994 and documented the very special corner store culture of the big apple on atmospheric paintings. In between he has given a new meaning to urban signs, sever covers and ventilations by his ‘Killroy variations’. His merits are now appreciated not only by street activists worldwide but also by a book from Gingko Press titled “In plain view”.
