Founded by artist and photographer David Schmidlapp, ultimate underground periodical, true underground fanzine, The International Graffiti Times (I.G. Times) is the first newspaper devoted to the art of the street. Its publication lasted 10 years (1984-1994) and Phase 2 occupied the post of Artistic Director in 1986. Work of genius by the richness of its model, of its content, by the graphics, the arrangement of the pages, the I.G. Times is a fundamental witness and propagator of the original spirit of Street Art.
“David Schmidlapp founded the IGTimes in 1984, making it the first magazine devoted to aerosol art and culture. Schmidlapp first approached the project as an outsider, but soon became a collaborator with the various artists of the movement. In 1986, he teamed up with with legendary “writer” and Hip Hop pioneer Phase 2 (starting with volume 8)…”-Sothebys
