Between 2005 and 2007 I took nearly 450 pictures of street art and graffiti around the Dublin area, primarily in the city centre and the South-Eastern suburbs. At first using a number of throwaway cameras and then an Olympia digital camera. I was hoping to capture a little bit of Dublin graffiti social history with the fanciful idea of putting a book together of all my snaps. I soon lost interest but thought it would be worthwhile to upload the best snaps here so they don’t go to complete waste. Enjoy.
The third feature is on the graff crew RCS (RadiCalS) of which GRIFT, DROP and others were members.
In the seventies, it was the Bridge Boot Boys who were the top graffiti merchants. Johner, Scotty, Joe, Sherko. It was all over the place. Is there any remnants of their work about? I’m pretty sure not.
Nice one Joe for the info.
“Bridge Boot Boys”
Which bridge would that be?
