This is the catalogue of the exhibition "Anthony Eden Clark a.k.a. A-One", organized in Marseille from June 22 to July 27 2019 by the @ghostgalerie in Marseille and curated by @sharpbutters .
The catalogue has a long introductory essay by Sharp and reproduces all the the artworks, photos and documents that were part of the exhibition in Marseille, as much as a list of all the exhibitions that have featured his artworks since the 1980s to nowadays. The catalogue of A-One exhibition at the Quintessens Gallery in Utrecht in 1991, with an interview to the artist, is also reproduced into this new book.

Svensk Old School Graffiti documents the first chapter of Swedish graffiti, 1984–1992. Some say it was a golden era. In the beginning, the paintings were happy, naive and charming – impossible to recreate today. Later on, they became brutal and technically advanced monsters.

The book is a 260 pages heavy piece showing material that has never been published before. Rare photos of pieces, writers and spots. More than twenty-five writers have looked back and shared their thoughts on graffiti, memories and reflections. Added to the DGL collection. #dutchgraffitilibrary #svenskoldschoolgraffiti @swedisholdschoolgraffiti @spraydaily

Mayor Edward Koch, Style Wars, NYC 1983: "Well, I've seen comparable graffiti. Not necessarily these particular ones. Each of these costs us a million dollars, in a sense, because others went out and tried to copy. ..." Original vintage 1981 poster 'Graffiti: on the subways of New York', published 1981 by The Village Voice, as shown in the movie Style Wars. Grateful and honored that we could add this piece of graffiti history to the DGL collection, thanks to Rhyme GVB, Amsterdam Highly appreciated, collection highlight. #dutchgraffitilibrary #stylewars @henrychalfant #dumpkoch #villagevoice #newyorkgraffiti #subwayart

RAMMΣLLZΣΣ: A Roll of Dice will offer over 25 distinctive pieces from the early 1980's to the end of Rammellzee's career. Opening during Frieze week, the exhibition was the first major presentation of the artist's work in the UK.
Born in Far Rockaway, Queens in 1960, Rammellzee was a seminal figure of the emerging rap and hip-hop movement in New York. His radical theories about graffiti and language as a system of domination to be liberated characterised his artwork and demonstrated his own philosophies. "...the universe of Rammellzee is a distant cosmos of proximate dreams that we have just begun to explore." - Carlo McCormick, American culture critic and curator.

Added to the collection thanks @phvfokker highly appreciated. #dutchgraffitilibrary #rammellzee

Rest in peace unstoppable force of creation PHASE 2, forever he changed the world of graffiti and the world of art. His intuitive lettering inspired generations of the writers who accepted his foundation and built their own styles upon it. He really is a legend and a true representative of the style writing, paving the road for the ones that were yet to come. Stay strong and condolences to his family, friends and loved ones. #ripphase2
