Description: GRAFFITI VERITE' (GV) Art and Review Book by Bob Bryan, Loida Bryan Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The GV ART AND REVIEW BOOK creatively captures the Artistic Genius rendered upon the abandoned building walls and alley ways of Los Angeles, CA by LAs finest Graffiti Artists. The year was 1995 and Urban Hieroglyphics was in full effect. LA style masters blew up the boring monochromatic and beige walls of the city with artistic pride and innovative personal style. Daring and talented young Graffiti Writers represented Los Angeles, West Coast with a dazzling array of Graffiti Art masterpieces..."pieces" for short. Complex wild-style design patterns, roll calls and strung out graphic characters all complimented the innovative, fresh and unique individual letter styles. Graffiti Writers from numerous crews "got up" like at no other time in LAs history. The venues were secondary, whether presented on canvas at Underground Art Galleries, multi-mix installatiions, legal murals or the many back alleys and graffiti yards... the work was hardly academic. "In Los Angeles we have some of the best Artists in the world...if not the best!" ---Nerv, Artist. This historical Art Book is based upon the multi award-winning documentary "Graffiti Verite: Read the Writing on the Wall." GV ART AND REVIEW BOOK includes the Art, Media Reviews, Artists Interviews, Outtakes and the complete "Graffiti Verite: Read the Writing on the Wall" shooting script. A must-have for anyone interested in contemporary Art - Highly educational! Perfect for Schools and Libraries. "Ready or Not, Graffiti Art is the next Great Art Movement after Pop Art." ---Bob Bryan, Filmmaker Author Biography BOB BRYAN (Director / Writer / Executive Producer / Director of Photography) understands the notion of the independent filmmaker and revels in it. "Hollywood wasnt exactly beating down my door looking for a tall, bald yet handsome filmmaker. I was basically an outsider with no family, professional or romantic connections; so I had to hustle to make things happen!" By being persistent and accepting the good will of strangers, Bob managed to break into "the bizness," initially as an actor turned cameraman, turned director, turned producer. Some of his freelance production credits include: Hill Street Blues, Hard Copy, Murphy Brown, Murder One, The US World Cup / Studio Pele, Up Close and Personal, Mad City, Deep Impact, The Truman Show, The Goofy Movie and fifty-nine (59) Interstitial Spots for The Discovery Health Channel etc....The next creative step in Bobs eclectic career was to get his 45 minute Indie documentary entitled Graffiti Verite produced. Looking realistically at his modest budget he decided to hire himself as the writer, executive producer, director, director of photography, audio-mixer and finally editor and publicist. "For me, its all about believing in yourself, in order to get things done. Live your life passionately, prepare yourself, invest in yourself and take the plunge! Its not like youre throwing money away in Vegas. I mean, my personal affirmative action program requires that Ive got to put one foot in front of the other and "complete the mission". Its an action-oriented discipline that offers me zero excuses for failure." Self producing and financing Graffiti Verite (1995) was not an easy way to go. It meant making hard choices which impacted the everyday quality of Bryans family life. "I remember at that critical juncture in 95, I was either going to pay the mortgage or put that money into my film. For me it was a supremely clear and simple decision for me to make. To be or not to be! Every time I put more money into the film, I could feel it (the film) grow and expand as if it had its own life force. I was not about to abort it !!! It was an amazing time and I was hooked. I chose to live through my film and go for it ! This of course resulted in some major survival fallout issues with my wife as well as almost losing my home of over 11 years. The fact is, when you stop making mortgage payments for 6 months in a row; the banks are no longer user- friendly. The pressure was on!!"
