Graffiti Pioneers in East New York, Brooklyn: Ex Vandals 2il, Keon, Panic Rodriguez, Clyde and Gap RNS

December 8, 2020

While exploring the streets on and off Atlantic Avenue in the East New York section of Brooklyn this past Sunday, I came upon a wall of classic graffiti painted by several members of the long-running, Brooklyn-born Ex Vandals crew. Pictured above is veteran style master 2il taking a brief break from his work in progress.  Several more images follow:

Much respect to these pioneers who paved the way to so many–
