Disco

France  • 1972

Presentation

Disco discovered graffiti in his childhood neighborhood in the late 80s and has never abandoned this hip hop discipline that will shape his personality. In the early 90s he builds his reputation with the crew CMP : Sen, Smat, Dreo, Dion and many others ... At this time, the Parisian subway is ravaged, not a train is spared.

At this time the CMP counts more than a hundred members and more and more taggers expects to be part of the most sulfurous crew of the moment. Later, after a period of repression and mass arrests, Disco is focusing to the walls, and continuing missions in the streets with new CMP generations. From Subway to the street, from tag to huge walls graffitis, Disco tries to perpetuate a classic graffiti, coming from earlier 70-80. He is never disguising his art, because the most important is the recognition of his peers, in France or through the world.

Which led him to integrate BNA (Boricuas Nacional Artists), founded in 1979 in the Bronx. This crew composed mostly of Puerto Ricans, has been exactly representing the values of Disco for 30 years. The BNA are present in the USA, Singapore, Thailand, Brazil, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic. Graphic designer, sound producer, painter, Boss of its brand of skateboards and many other things make him a polyvalent artist. His inspirations are numerous: lowrider, Kustom, the California lifestyle, Chicano Art, murals, skateboard design, typography, calligraphy, engraving ect ...

After almost 30 years of graffiti, workshop production is a logical evolution that combines travel, meetings and creativity, a new way to evolve without ever neglecting the base, the street.
