BEYOND THE STREETS is pleased to announce its return to Southampton Arts Center this summer with its latest exhibition, POST GRAFFITI, premiering three years after its widely
acclaimed BEYOND THE STREETS on PAPER opening in 2021.
The concept of POST GRAFFITI encapsulates the genre's journey of rebellious subway artists, originating from 70’s and 80’s NYC, to the global movement they’ve inspired. The term signifies a shift from the illicit nature of traditional graffiti to a more accepted, legitimate art form in gallery settings. As the movement has progressed, artists associated with POST GRAFFITI continue to draw from the rich history of graffiti writing and the streets, forming a loose coalition that blurs and elevates their source
inspiration through drawing, painting, sculpture, and installation

Stecyk III, CRASH, Eric HAZE, Felipe Pantone, FUTURA2000, Gregory Rick, Guerrilla Girls, Haroshi, HUSKMITNAVN, KASTU, Kenny Scharf, LA2, LADY PINK, Madsaki, Martha Cooper, Maya Hayuk, Paul Insect, Tim Conlon, Timothy Curtis, Todd James, UFO and ZEPHYR
