A lot of changes have been going at the Graff Lab lately. The USC boxing club is putting the finishing touches on their Graff Lab gym. Ricky is getting the punching bags installed and then things should be pretty much be up and running. Additionally, a ton of new pieces have gone up as well. Take a look at the new face of the Graff Lab at 1038 W. Venice Blvd in Los Angeles.

Off the Wall Graffiti

admin — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 19:28:27 +0000

We have recently come in contact with Maura at Off the Wall Graffiti, a non-profit, community event, mentoring and scholarship foundation designed for students who show a talent in graffiti and a willingness to learn about art. At Off the Wall Graffiti their mission is to elevate the self esteem and talent of under-served 12-19 year old graffiti artists, globally by providing opportunities for students to create, win, learn and be supported in the pursuit of an education in the arts. In any event, they shared a couple of art opportunities with us and we want to share them with you. Good luck!

The Latest from the Lab

admin — Wed, 16 Mar 2011 17:54:45 +0000

It’s been over a month since the last post, so thanks for being patient, but a lot has been going on. A couple weeks ago the Graff Lab hosted an event for the folks at City Year who brought their after school class of about 20 to 30 middle schoolers from the surrounding Pico Union neighborhood to the Lab for an art pow-wow. Also we are going to delete the old unofficial facebook page, so be sure to hit us up on our new facebook fan page. We will be posting a bunch more photos on facebook in the future — more than we post here on the website — so definitely “like us” — it will be worth your while. In any event, below you will find a bunch of great new stuff from the likes of Seze, Broak, Aldo and more. Included is also a picture of the cross that Ricky and Lowanna made for Dr. Frank Ryan’s memorial in Malibu in Ventura County. Ricky went down to check on it after six months and it is still in fantastic condition.

Mega Time Lapse

Check out this bad ass new time lapse courtesy of MBD Films from Saler and 7 others who came by the Graff Lab and threw down on the Saturday before Super Bowl, putting up a huge new elaborate piece in a matter of hours. Good job, guys. The Super Bowl party on Sunday was a big hit. Thanks to all the artists who dropped by and especially to Ricky Guerrero for hosting.
