Issue 18 of Graff It! plunges once again into the vibrant heart of graffiti and street cultures across the globe. From São Paulo’s raw pixação scene to the sharp contours of Montpellier’s urban aesthetic, every page captures a different rhythm of the streets. The spotlight shines on figures like Jay Dee (R.I.P.), ABRAXAS, and Mike Giant, blending tributes, interviews, and deep dives into artistic journeys.
This issue also explores the visual language of sound through record cover art, the electric vibe of battle dance floors like Chelles Battle Pro, and the bold expression of independent artists like Discenssus and Frotte Connard. The United Colorssection returns with a fresh selection of burners, while Graphik Styles and Characters sections dissect the codes, symbols, and styles that continue to shape graffiti worldwide.
From Freeze Tie's Guerrilla Manual to a graphic literature focus on Jean-Louis Costes and Pierre La Police, the issue doesn’t shy away from edgy or experimental takes. Add to that a report on Beautiful Losers, the Femin’Ar’t feature, BD inserts, and a hefty selection of mail-order goodies for graff heads — Graff It! #18 is more than a magazine. It’s a snapshot of global urban creativity in motion.
