Description
Lee Quiñones: Fifty Years of New York Graffiti Art and Beyond This comprehensive monograph presents the work of Puerto Rican-born artist Lee Quiñones, spanning five decades of his career. The book showcases his monumental murals, kinetic elements, and innovative techniques that transformed the street art movement. From his early days as a 14-year-old graffiti artist in 1974, Quiñones' work evolved to include intricate drawings, artifacts, and subway photography. His iconic 1978 piece, Howard the Duck handball wall, introduced the concept of the freestanding urban mural, while his international exhibitions in the late 1970s helped establish spray-paint based work globally. With over 120 subway car murals across the New York City transit system, Quiñones' impact on the movement is undeniable. This book offers a unique insight into the artist's creative process and his role in shaping the street art genre.
