Style Wars 2 (komplette Graffiti-Doku auf YouTube) | Banksy meint: „Even better than my Movie.“
Style Wars ist der vermutlich bekannteste Graffiti-Movie, den es gibt (das Original von 1983 gibt's auf Vimeo). Die (Video-)Künstler Veli & Amos haben mit der Inspiration des ersten Teils eine phänomenale Fortsetzung gedreht, in der sie quer durch Europa auf Graffiti-Tour gehen.
"On the internet, Veli & Amos discover a subway car emblazoned with the words “Style Wars 2”, a wink to the 1983 cult documentary “Style Wars”, which explored the graffiti scene of its time. Intrigued, the duo head out – with no money – to find the graffiti’s author. Their journey leads them from Europe to the USA and the Middle East, through galleries and war zones, in search of the street art world of our times."

Girl Power (Doku-Trailer) | 15 verschiedene Graffiti-Artists – und alle sind Frauen
„Girl Power is a documentary that presents female graffiti writers from fifteen cities – from Prague to Moscow, Cape Town, Sydney, Biel, Madrid, Berlin, Toulouse, Barcelona and all the way to New York. The graffiti community is predominantly a man’s world, and men often share the view that graffiti – namely the illegal kind – is not for girls. And yet women have become increasingly more emancipated in recent years; there are female graffiti shows, magazines and websites. Girl Power captures the stories of ladies who have succeeded in the male graffiti world."
"However, Girl Power is more than just a look into the graffiti microcosm; it tells the moving story of Czech writer Sany, who decided in 2009 to capture female emancipation in graffiti on film and to give other girls and women the possibility to express themselves. It took her 7 long years to complete the documentary. We follow her life with graffiti, her motivation and values that keep changing as the years go by. We will also meet her family, who are absolutely unaware of Sany’s „second life“. Sany sacrifices a lot for the film, but even when she’s at the end of her tether, she refuses to give up on her dream – to make the very first movie depicting females in graffiti.“
