James Top is a fantastic New York City train muralist who has converted his massive art pieces onto canvas for prestigious exhibits all over the world. Today, he is teaching a very controversial graffiti class at Hostos College in the Bronx. Although James is currently the subject of a county-wide debate on teaching “illegal” art, he is successfully pushing forward on executing his first solo exhibit in New York City.
Afrology will also serve as an example to young aspiring artists, proving that graffiti art can be legal, well-received and above all, respected.
On Friday, February 22, 2008 check out the Essex Street Gallery, located on 27 1/2 Essex Street, New York to view Afrology from 6pm to Midnight.
