L.A.’s new heartbeat: The Graff Lab

L.A.’s new heartbeat: The Graff Lab

Often times people associate the artistic culture of Los Angeles with
places like The Getty, Norton Simon, or L.A.C.M.A. however, in 2010,
artistic expression has continued to expand beyond Museum doors and into
the highly populated urban streets of L.A. While “tagging” is still
prevalent within the city (on freeways, bus benches, office buildings,
billboards, etc.), Graffiti murals seem to be emerging as “high-art” with
contemporary issues surrounding politics, music, pop culture, and more.
Ricky Guerrero recognized this artistic revolution by opening the doors of
the Graff Lab three years ago in 2006-07. The new Graffiti “Museum”
showcases the talent of Graffiti Artists from around the world; their
skills shown on all types of surfaces from the walkways and step landings,
to the walls and even the Porto-potties seem to merge seamlessly within the
spray-painted landscape!

On Saturday, March 20, 2010, Jerk music group the Breakfast Club shot
their debut video for their single “Bite Me.” The groups energetic and
“swagger-filled” lyrics combined with the “Lab’s” edgy yet colorful scenery
made for the perfect video shoot. Hundreds of fashion forward youngsters
showed in support of the artistic union. An awesome Saturday for the
creative community altogether! Hollywood location scouts also recognize the
“Lab” as a prime property for shooting television and film segments. L.A.
artist Rudy Martinez, recent mural, a memorial in honor of music legend
Michael Jackson will also bring in much buzz for the venue. It’s completion
scheduled for later this month. The Graffiti Lab is the new heart beat of
L.A.  GO experience it for YOURSELF!
