Graffiti in Guatemala 2

Much has happened since the previous article of Graffiti in Guatemala, and finally 2007 was the year of the graff in the country, many new writers have joined this movement that is still starting up with more and more strength, and that in 2008 continue growing

In this article I would like to show some of the things that have been made in recent months, and also mention a number of which in my view have been highlighted in national graff scene, but now were born various crews, which most stood out during 2007 were Zkills Urban Crew (UZC) and Kultura Eskuadron Suburban (EKS), painting several productions throughout the year.

The most prominent writer in the non-legal could not have been another more than DOPE , who would fill the streets with his Dopezilla and also because it has two videos where we can quickly see how it is that makes her excellent work unfortunately do not have sound but told me that the next videos will "soundtracks."

His fame grew this year, including other blogs outside the graff commented on their work, so I am thrilled that the graff is being accepted much more than in previous years, so if you do not know their work will leave you with two videos that they comment.

Another writer who also has been painting a lot of bombs was Sonar, who became quite famous for his tag began to appear almost everywhere, has now begun to paint parts and you see that going well

During these months were also held several events and a few more interviews and reports of national graff, generally were small university audiovisual works are appreciated because they show this art quite differently, how others see this type of art .

In the first video of EKS Woser interviewed and GTGraff, was recorded during the Festival of murals at 4 degrees north, then turn up painting with Zame , SPN007, Tools, and Chuck Royale5, lasting a little over 3 minutes.

In the second interview two of the writers who have more time painting in the country and are just a few of those who have always fought for the graff not die in our city, they are Woser and Zame of EKS and GTGraff, there are some scenes Muralists Festival and other productions that were made during the year, I must say I liked it more this second video, not only for editing but on the overall contribution, lasting almost 6 minutes.

Also a few months ago there were two events of graff in El Salvador, to which were invited Guatemalan writers, although I was not the first time for reasons I'd rather not remember, in the second if I could attend to represent Guatemala with Zick03 , The Bear, Dope, Zame, Woser, Royale and SPN; take this opportunity to thank Rage , Zero and Anime Boy They received us over there and the Municipality of the City to promote events like this to educate people that the graffiti is art

These are the pictures of the pieces from Guatemala, unfortunately the majority of Salvadoran writers did not finish their parts that day because they had the opportunity to continue the following weekend, something we could not do most of all for reasons currency

Another event that took place recently was the second festival of Hip Hop, which does not participate because he had to hand sketch to paint, which I do not like, but the good thing was that there were other writers who represented their respective crews these are photos of the pieces that I liked most was the Woser, is the Gray 3d, the door is best

Well to finish (because as it is already quite long article right?), A video more than a small painted cross EKS illegal! between the Miraflores shopping and Tikal Futura, but I could not finish because I thought it was legal and in the end we had to leave early to avoid problems someone there to make this small custom recording parts, the first is the incomplete look jejeje

So this is all for now, although lately there were some conflicts between writers seemingly everything has been calm and we are all together again for the movement and I hope that 2008 will be an even better year for the national graff and what they thought you all this?
