10FOOT ๐ฌ๐ง Print Release โข London Graffiti โข Street Art , by leroy77 on Apr 30, 2024 19:36:42 GMT 1, Congrats, so what all these meeting up to buy it stories, now that you have all got yours, Do you have to go to his favorite place to eat and buy dinner or something? So just instagram contact for the venue and time but the selection of location and the energy of interaction made this one to remember without a doubt.

10FOOT ๐ฌ๐ง Print Release โข London Graffiti โข Street Art , by thisisthesam on Apr 30, 2024 19:46:10 GMT 1, My guy thought he was meeting me the next day and left me waiting 1 hour outside a shop in Walworth haha.
When he realised and came instantly - the piece was the golden throwup (I bought blue, so declined and off he dashed and came back 10 mins later with the correct one).
Super nice guy - bought me some beers and told me the big guy apologised - coolest piece I own and wicked backstory.

Super nice guy - bought me some beers and told me the big guy apologised - coolest piece I own and wicked backstory. What I like is the rawness of 10Foot, TOX etc.
For me Art is a bit like football in that following a premier league team or top artist there is a disconnect between them and fans, almost untouchable.
Where as the likes of 10Foot is like following a lower league team, there is still a connection, yes that rawness can lead to mistakes but itโs all genuine and theyโll go out of their way to rectify anything and you get that personal touch which goes a long way IMO.

10FOOT ๐ฌ๐ง Print Release โข London Graffiti โข Street Art , by Wearology on May 1, 2024 0:46:08 GMT 1, Can a forum member please help me out. I have read about the artist 10Foot for the past few months on our forum daily and I have googled his name and have perused articles online about his history and I still have no idea why he is so popular. What am I missing ? Are there other forum members who are thinking the same thing, but are just afraid to ask publicly ?

What am I missing ? Are there other forum members who are thinking the same thing, but are just afraid to ask publicly ? He is a prolific tagger in the UK. In the South East where I live, you canโt go anywhere without seeing his tags. Iโve also seen his tags right down in the very furthest South West of the country and Iโm sure theyโre in most corners of the country. Heโs something of a Robin Hood character which I think plays a large part in making him popular rather than his limited artistic output - tag and throw up in different colours.
His close association with Tox - and therefore โlinkโ with Banksy - and his inclusion in Beyond the Streets London also help.

In the same way as Shepard Fairey started - it is about repetition and getting your name out there. 10foot and TOX are prolific. You cannot, not see it in London. I guess those who live in or visit London appreciate it more.
For me, the positioning of where the tags appear is the appeal. You wouldnโt see LA2 doing thisโฆ ๐

I have read about the artist 10Foot for the past few months on our forum daily and I have googled his name and have perused articles online about his history and I still have no idea why he is so popular. What am I missing ? Are there other forum members who are thinking the same thing, but are just afraid to ask publicly ? It's all about the energy, the prolific nature and the don't give a shit attitude,
'art not Art!
We all know that Art and Graffiti-writers are separate in the real world.
Away from the galleries writing is rebellion, Steph Warren put it well "Its not power towering over you, its power walking along side of you"
The hand painted release with DOPE Magazine was in aid of supporting the homeless, the London AtoZ (Disintegration Loops) is a celebration of his 'All City' conquering defiance of the local authorities and the ruling classes with which they align.
I don't see 10Foot ever doing a gallery show, he never really strays from the classic tag which keeps everything true to the origins of old school graffiti writers and their connection to the street.
However, a lot of new hype is due to Banksy dropping a thanks in the back of his Cut & Run book and this maybe a reason why there is a lot more attention on him right now.
Not all the answers you need to make your own opinion of his current body of work but it my opinion and I hope it give a little context.
