More than three years ago we saw a post on Instagram showing this car by West FC, Kase2 and Disz that was the awareness and the kick-off for DGL for a quest for knowledge with a clear goal finding answers on the question as published in Spraycan Art "What is a young man from The Hague doing bombing the one line in the 145th Street Tunnel with Bodé nudes?”Finally almost two years ago we published these answers in the book "Disz. The first Dutch writer bombing the New York City subway". Today we could officially say we are SOLD OUT. #dutchgraffitilibrary #disz

Try your luck and check out for a few copies available maybe at @mrgraffiti_nl @hitzerot_ and @legrandjeu

In 1983, at the age of 22, Disz († 2012) decides to travel from The Hague, the Netherlands to Australia and New York. During our research, to reconstruct the life of Disz, we came across photos of The Hague in the early 80's. A bombed city where Disz left the Loosduinen district to finally arrive at 125st Street Station in NY.

Photo's out of the city archives of The Hague #thehaguegraffiti #dutchgraffitilibrary #disz

Inktvingers - De stencilkunst van KNUST 1983-2019

Het Nijmeegse kunstenaarsinitiatief KNUST @knustpress werd opgericht in 1983. Het kwam voort uit de kraak- en punkbeweging en maakte wereldwijd naam met opvallende, geheel originele stencilkunst. KNUST opereerde tussen 1983 en 1987 vanuit het kleurrijk beschilderde kraakpand De Westland en verhuisde vervolgens naar de huidige locatie: Extrapool. #dutchgraffitilibrary #knust #nijmegen

Who hasn't watched these plates with admiration ...? Shown here are two of the original wall plates from the legendary aerosol sales store of Kuhlman at Jan Evertsenstraat 138 in Amsterdam. From the mid-eighties one of the shops that sold Sparvar, Trendy etc. In 2014 Hein 'Henkie' Kuhlman quit his shop. He had stopped the aerosol sales years before. He says about it himself "When graffiti became popular, they were comming here for aerosol cans. Everyone had to have them. There were regular burglaries at the time, so I stopped to sell those cans." The wall plates, which are the flip sides of Flexa paint colour overviews, were pasted full of graffiti photos brought to the shop by writers.

Added tot the collection with thanks to @graffiti_database for this amazing gift after storage these plates for years after he received them from Kuhlman himself during the closing days of the shop. Slide number 4 shown the Haaksbergen posse, photo by @timski_timone taken on a trip to the Amsterdam paint shop. #dutchgraffitilibrary #kuhlman #sparvar #flexa

Almost two years ago we published the book "Disz. The first Dutch writer bombing the New York City subway” about a young man from The Hague named René Westhoff (RIP), with a passion for Vaughn Bodé comics. Who, at the age of 23, travelled to New York City as early as December 1985 and became befriended with some of the legendary New York graffiti writers. He was granted permission to paint the subway in the 145st tunnel as one of their brothers in arms.

Don't sleep on this one. Only 15 copies left for public sale at our stock.

Don't sleep on this one. Today we received a message from our friends @ruyzdael that there is a secret stock find available of 'Nug ‎– Soundtrack for 3 short movies; King of the line 1, 2 and 3.' Vinyl only. Limited Edition 2003.

"Nug has been a well-known figure within the world of graffiti for decades. He has made a name for himself by spray painting countless walls and trains. Since Nug started exhibiting his highly controversial work a heated debate was raised in Sweden. Some art critics strongly disagree with his spontaneous, yet vandalistic approach. Others see his work as modern day action painting and describe him as Pollock with a spray can. In spite of this controversy (or because of it), Nug is exhibiting and selling his work in galleries all over the world."

A few of the last copies of this limited edition vinyl are available at the Ruyzdael store. Check @ruyzdael

Finally added to the collection, thanks to the man himself @elzup ! The regular and limited edition of this amazing must have in any serious graffiti book collection - 'Running Wild' showcases legendary Australian graffiti artist, Puzle's, early art and provides the reader with a unique insight into the artist's huge impact on Melbourne's graffiti scene from the 80's and 90's.

Puzle is one the famous Australian writers we became known at through graffiti zines and magazines in the late '80s. With his thigh connection with Dutch writers as Selone and Delta he had for sure his influence on the Dutch graffiti scene.
