Une Histoire du Graffiti a Toulouse- USED

“The trajectory of one of the most influential groups in the history of French graffiti: La Truskool. ” Graffiti first appeared in Toulouse in the mid-1980s. It started out with only a handful of actors inspired by the New York underground. A group of friends will give birth to La Truskool. Some of them now enjoy international recognition. A question arises: did the city of Toulouse meet specific conditions for the constitution of such a movement, or was it born out of a simple combination of circumstances? The adventure of the Truskool, beyond anecdotes and the tale of an era, underlines the now historic link between Toulouse, the so-called pink city, and its spray-painted walls. Above all, this book portrays a generation of original, daring, freedom-loving graffiti artists.
