Last Thursday night we had our second Creative Mornings at night. This time our speaker was the legendary Roger Gastman. Gastman has been at the forefront of street art and graffiti for years and years. He founded the magazines While Your Were Sleeping and Swindle, he was one of the produces and creative consultant for Exit Through The Gift Shop, he co-curated the Art in the Street show at MOCA and he recently wrote The History of American Graffiti. His talk was a short history of how he got where he is today, including bank-rolling a European trip, and most of his early business success, by selling graffiti caps. We’ll be posting a video of his talk on the LACM Vimeo page in the next couple of weeks.
Thanks to everyone who turned up. We had a big crowd and many thanks to Willard Ford at Ford & Ching for getting this all going.
