Bursting from the shadows with a blast of 80s colour and energy, Old So Kool showcased the incredible wealth of underground artistry that emerged during the UK graffiti scene’s golden age. Now authors Paul Pilgrim and Steven O’Hara are back with a fresh selection of prime cuts from the era’s premier graffiti painters.
Old So Kool: The Lost Years unearths a second treasure trove of beautiful pieces – many of them having lain dormant and unseen for decades. Join Paul and Steven as they continue their nostalgic journey back to those unprecedented days of chaos and wonder, when Britain’s best artists wielded rattle cans instead of paint brushes, their canvas the grim landscapes of urban decay.
Every chapter in OLD SO KOOL: THE LOST YEARS tells a fascinating tale of the vision and passion that drove these graffiti icons when they brought their masterpieces to life.
From the painters who rode the Hip Hop wave that dominated the North in the early 80s to the Midland graffiti artists who was inspired by a Subway Art book, each chapter in Old So Kool flips back to the rebellious era where bold strokes and vivid hues dominated street art.
