Over fifteen years, Hungarian train writer Ekin (GLK) built a reputation as one of the most relentless subway painters in the world. Ekin: Subways 1998–2013 gathers the photographic record of that journey — a raw archive of panels, whole-cars and underground missions carried out across some of the most tightly controlled transit systems on the planet.
From Athens to Moscow, from Japan to the United States, the book travels through more than sixty subway networks, documenting a global practice where speed, risk and style collide.
Mixing action shots, finished pieces and short texts by the writer himself, Ekin: Subways 1998–2013 offers a rare inside look at the most radical frontier of train graffiti — the subway systems where the stakes, and the adrenaline, are at their highest.
