Stay High 149 passes away at 61

Stay High 149, aka Wayne Roberts, has passed away this week at the age of 61. He was a pioneer and an innovator with his tags and pieces from 1971-1975. He resurfaced in 2000 and his newer tags can still be seen around New York City. You can see his work on flickr and in the book The Faith of Graffiti. Rest in peace.

Here are a few of the many obituaries and reactions to Stay High 149’s death from around the web:

Escif on a gallery in Rome

This new mural (L’orecchio destro, which translates to The Right Ear) by Escif is on the outside of the Wunderkammern gallery in Rome. It is part of a new series for him called Suspension of Disbelief. Here’s how he describes the project:

The artist will explore new paradigms, question borders, fast forward into new uncomfortable grounds, provoke wonder and divergence thinking. The artists will suspend the viewers’ disbelief and let them access new possible dimensions.
