The year is 2065. There is an Urban Art retrospective..., by 11 on Mar 2, 2015 19:31:53 GMT 1, Getting back on track.....some great suggestions and none (well, maybe some) that i can argue against - I would include Martha Cooper as she has been part of the whole culture and really does transgress the entire evolution of street art from the early writers on the subways to the legal murals and major events the street art has now become
I don't own a Martha but I am waiting for that special piece and will add her to my collection one day

I'd think her work would be well represented. I think her and Barbara Kruger would both be considered extremely important to the birth and evolution of street/urban art
any idea where to pick up her prints? found this one, but not much else: editiononehundred.bigcartel.com/product/new-york-state-of-mind-by-martha-cooper

Gonna have to completely disagree with Kruger being related to street/urban art. She is a pretty well known conceptual artist more akin to Jenny Holzer, Joseph Beuys, Bruce Nauman et al. And as such will continue to be known for her work in that context.

I don't know if their campaigns happen without her influence. or any thing really with short, "in your face" bold statements used to draw attention. I can see her influence in someone like Banksy. Sounds like something he might spray:

I agree she may have been an influence to a few well known street artists, what I am saying that her work itself has nada to do with it and as such would not be in a 2065 Street Art retrospective
As a comparison I would say a retrospective on Cubism probably not feature African Masks although they were very influential To Picasso in his early development of cubism.
BTW I'm a big fan of hers

All subcultures has always been influenced by the drug of the decade. the question isn't which artists will be popular in 50 years it's which of yesterday and today's artists will be considered important and/or influential in 50 years
so to answer your next question: ecstasy. they were all on ecstasy

Today the 90's is back.. So back to the main question.. It has to do with what is popular in fifty years concerning what they will appreciate from "today" I don't think subcultures were influenced by the drugs of the day.
I do think that Hirst, Saatchi and the high prices hedge funds greed and bankers were all on coke though and also some politicians and thats why the country is the mess it is today.
The mid 80's is the age of cocaine art.

The year is 2065. There is an Urban Art retrospective..., by South Bound on Mar 2, 2015 20:51:29 GMT 1, Keith Harring He has his own era not sure he is a real peer of the current generation of painters 2000+ Basquiat Same with Harring a whole different generation. Banksy Paul Insect Love Pauls work and he is a great artist just not sure he would make this type of list. Maybe on a second tier of artists that would be considered Os Gemeos Invader Cost and Revs Shepard Fairey Conor Harrington Conor is the best but if you are looking for a retrospective Key figures to the progression would seem to be important. Conor is one of the best but might fall short when balancing the street to studio work. I think anyone that would be in some type of retrospective would be artists that were there at key points and had a role in shaping the overall movement. I also think they would have to have played in integral part in the street not just the studio. Studio work is after the fact when talking about this genre and real progression happened in the streets and in collectives in the street. Barry Mcgee Espo Swoon Blu MSK JR - even though I am not a fan of his work he has his role. I think there are many 2nd tier artists that you could make arguments for that might be considered better collected or even better artists than some but historically relevant takes more than being good. There is a level of being in the right place at the right time and pioneering something that opened the doors for so many other artists that we might also think deserve to be on a list like this. I have to agree with this list, and add Eine or Futura

Long arms too.
Has anyone invented an extension pole for graffiti taggers yet.
You put the can on top extend it out, pull a trigger at the bottom which pushes down a finger on the can nozzle.

Yes, they call it fire extinguisher. No because I was thinking of putting a spray can on an extension pole and it would be easier to make neat looking graffiti high up as well as rescue kittens.
An extinguisher just gushes all over the place and would blast a kitten out of a tree.

A telescopic window cleaning pole filled with paint should be quite handy.

The year is 2065. There is an Urban Art retrospective..., by Hairbland on Mar 3, 2015 3:33:32 GMT 1, Great lists and suggestions so far.ย I think to be included on the list, the artist will have to be (1) a significant contributor to the genre, (2) historically relevant, (3) has a unique style, (4) talent and execution, (5) and an extensive body of work on the streets and galleries. I think the following: Historical ExamplesCave art of Lascaux Graffiti at historical sites and monuments PioneersKeith Harring - People may think it's a different generation, but in 50 years it's all going to be seen within the early context for the street art movement. Basquiat - Same as above for Harring.ย Together served as the foundation for taking art from the streets to galleries and museums. Blek le Rat - The grandfather of stencil street art. Ron English - Subversion of public ads. The New VanguardBanksy - The leading figure of street art. Shepard Fairey - Commercialized street art with his graphically focused style.ย Sticker movement with Andre the Giant. WK Interact - He was on the streets here in NYC doing some of the best work in the 90s.ย Large scale wheat pastes, he taught Faile how to paste and did larger scale than Shep at the time.ย He's also in the movie "Exit Through the Gift Shop" and referenced in many books on the history of street art.ย Really don't know why he doesn't get discussion here (maybe because he hasn't done much work in the UK)? Invader - Unique tile style and invasions throughout the world. Cost & Revs - Simple ubiquity and persistence. The Second GenerationFaile Bast Os Gemeos JR Swoon
Good list.
Could we all stop calling him Keith Harring? Sorry, good thread but it's driving me crazy!
I would also reference recent retrospectives like the Deitch LA show and the NYC Martin Wong show.

The year is 2065. There is an Urban Art retrospective..., by South Bound on Mar 3, 2015 3:39:45 GMT 1, Swoon is by far more important than some on your list, and thats really not too debatable. She has been a played a pivotal role in street art in the streets as well as being accepted into institutions with her installations. She has paid dues and respected amongst her peers. I dont see how she could be left off any list that would mention street art in a historical manner. like I said, I could very well be wrong. ย Maybe I am underestimating her achievements. ย My opinion is just my own, and I'd love to hear what other people think. ย Are there any artists I mentioned that you don't think will be looked back as highly upon in 50 years ? Her work is owned by the MOMA, she is the only living street artist to have a retrospective at the Brooklyn Museum of Art (the other 2 are dead:Basquiat and Haring), her work has shown at the Tate, the MOCA Art In the Streets, the New Orleans Museum of Art, Her crashing the Venice Biennale was consider by one influential critic to be the best part of the entire event, almost every street art list I see has her list in the top 10, she uses the funds from her work to support her charitable work (like Braddock and Haiti). I know this does not matter but also Deitch, Saltz, and Laz have called her one their favorite street artist and (this also does not matter) she did a Ted Talk. I just don't see how anyone can put PINS on the list but say Swoon has not achieved enough.

Has anyone invented an extension pole for graffiti taggers yet. You put the can on top extend it out, pull a trigger at the bottom which pushes down a finger on the can nozzle. Yes, they call it fire extinguisher. Or they might start to call it a drone: www.wired.com/2014/04/a-nightmare-for-cops-a-drone-that-paints-graffiti/

And humblebrag, but I coached her and others on their presentations as part of the founding team for TEDxBrooklyn that year. Callie needed the least amount of help. I'm biased, but she is incredibly brilliant, and her work somehow continues to improve.

She is one of a handful of artist's that have been recognized by museums at this point already. Her work is crucial to the growth of the NYC street art scene and commands prices up to $50,000. She has been collected by important contemporary art collectors and continues to grow in popularity and stature each year. Her growth has been steady and strong.
If you haven't seen pictures of the installation that she did at BAM last summer, I suggest you take a gander. It was absolutely breathtaking and one of the strongest art installations I have seen to date.

Blu revived the Italian art of painting large scale murals. No one in the street art scene has attempted large scale murals up to that point.
I also feel strongly that Phlegm will be a fixture and a staple for years to come. His style and execution as well as his subject matter is unparalleled IMHO.
I will also make a strong case for Miss Bugs. They have had an amazing career of slow development and change their style up every few years. They have a strong collector base and turn more heads every year. They have dabbled in many forms of media are very skilled with their work. I think that they will translate well into the hands of major contemporary collectors. This will cement their legacy imho.
Other possibilities will include:
Faith 47, Daleast, David Choe & ROA

like I said, I LOVE her work, (and she's actually a close friend of a close friend so I'm always rooting for her). maybe it's just because she doesn't get a lot of attention on this forum and sometimes I forget that there's a whole, big world outside of this place.
As for Paul Insect, his show last year at Allouche Gallery was maybe the best show I've ever seen, across all genres, artists both living or dead. I think his work is beginning to transcend the boundaries of any one genre and if he continues to evolve, he will eventually go down as one of the defining artists of our generation. but again, just my opinion and unfortunately, my opinion doesn't carry too much weight in the art world
and I'm still looking for more opinions on Blek. A pioneer? an influence? both? neither? Can someone who's older than me let me know if his work was popular and influential in the 80's and 90's, or did he not start getting major recognition until after other stencil artists took off in the 2000's?
