Graffiti 101: New York Subway Art of the 1970s and 80s

@ Museum of the City of New York.



In 1974, when he was just 14 years old, Chris Pape (aka Freedom) 
started painting murals in abandoned freight train tunnels under 

Riverside Park (see slideshow here). 


Join Pape, now a veteran graffiti artist and author, 
for an insider’s account of the New York City 
subway graffiti movement between 1969 and 1989, 
and a discussion of what it was like to stand in a tunnel with 
subway cars racing past while trying to paint a train. 

How did writers like Pape do it? 

How did the city stop it?

What happened to graffiti art in New York once it moved off the trains?
