ANYTHING FOR NOTHING POSTER

A2 poster by Graffiti writer and Illustrator Erosie.

Limited edition 250 made specifically for DBJS show in Sept 07.

Dutch based artist Erosie originally started his career in the early 90’s as a “classic” graffiti writer. Having carved an impressive career as a commercial illustrator, he has evolved a fine art practice through his experimentation with conceptual pieces, scale and the exploration of various mediums.

Erosie’s current work explores the subversion of typography, and the loss of its intrinsic values. Considering the ‘play’ between image vs. text vs. ‘graffiti-codes’.

Observing a culture, wherein successful communication alludes to supremacy, and these dislocated modes of communication embody our post-modern obsession with visual language.

Erosie now exhibit’s in galleries across the world but does not ignore his roots; he is still an active member in the SOL Graffiti crew and a prolific graf-writer throughout Europe.
