Peter-Ernst Eiffe, Germany’s first graffiti artist
“Eiffe, der Bär” (Eiffe, the Bear) was Germany’s first graffiti artist. Swept up in the student movement of the ‘60s (and some troubles of his own), Eiffe began scrawling his anarchist and nonsensical sayings all over Hamburg in 1968. He soon became widely known, because wherever he would leave his messages (such as “Eiffe for [...]

Doze Green bringing us Enlightenment
Doze Green, the living legend, came into 1AM gallery and dropped some knowledge as well as some very limited “Siddhartha” giclee prints. For those of you who don’t know, Siddhartha is the birth name of the founder of Buddhism. After getting lost exploring his print, I think I’ve finally found enlightenment. Measuring 52 by 44 [...]
