SURVIVORS VOL.I - Berlin 90s Tag Aesthetics

SURVIVORS – VOL.I documents the rare phenomenon of tags that have endured Berlin's relentless buffing culture. This groundbreaking book series captures graffiti from Germany's capital that has miraculously survived decades of cleaning, weather, and overpainting. Art historian Sascha Blasche's mid-2000s documentation reveals 1990s tags with distinctive aesthetic qualities—pieces that outlasted contemporary writings on electric boxes, brick walls, and forgotten corners. A definitive archive of Berlin's most resilient writing culture, this volume preserves the visual legacy of an era when tagging defined the city's underground art scene. 216 pages, 24,7 x 17,6 cm, hardcover Language: English and German
