[LINK IN BIO] Fluke 18 has a ten page interview with Professor Susan A. Phillips of Pitzer College and author of The City Beneath: A Century of Los Angeles Graffiti. Susan has been researching graffiti since 1990 and shares with us her vast knowledge and discoveries, including graffiti dating back to the early 20th century by legendary hobo A-No. 1. She also talks about Bill Daniel, buZ blurr and Chaz Bojórquez, as well as others. Susan explains the different motives of graffiti writing by trans, queer and straight people—men and women. She also discusses protest graffiti and uses the George Floyd protests as an example to illustrate her perspective. There’s a lot more in the interview and if you haven’t read her new book, it’s a tome of information! Thank you, Susan. “There’s a delightful tension between known and unknown in the graffiti world. It’s one of the things I love about it. In fact, I prefer that tension to knowing the whole story sometimes. One point of view would be that the whole story is something we can never know—even about our own lives.” -Susan A.

“HOLLYWOOD SOUND STUDIOS”

by Chaz and Slick

Established in 1962 at the corner of Selma Ave and Cosmo St., Hollywood Sound’s 50-year run saw the likes of everyone from The Doors to Michael Jackson, Natalie Cole, and Frank Sinatra record music history in its studios. It was only appropriate that OGallery, now occupying this space, tapped the talent of a few LA’s art icons to celebrate the rich history of the defunct studios, and in 2016 Chaz Bojorquez joined Slick to paint this work on the Selma Ave. wall. Originally from Hawai’i Slick came to LA to attend Otis and then Art Center, and has been on the forefront of its graffiti scene for more than 25 years, creating his iconic LA Hands back in the 90s. Applying the hands to more artistic endeavors for this mural Slick invited graffiti legend Chaz—sometimes referred to as the Godfather of Cholo graffiti—to write the names of the legendary performers to record in the studios.  @og​_slick  @chaz_bojorquez  @ogalleryla-blog

[LINK IN BIO] Fluke 18 is now available! This issue focuses on outsider art and culture. We caught up with filmmaker, photographer and cinematographer Bill Daniel—creator of the experimental documentary film Who is Bozo Texino?—and talked about zines, Aaron Cometbus and Bill's train-hopping adventures that eventually led to discovering the moniker writers of the US railways system. Susan A. Phillips of Pitzer College and author of The City Beneath: A Century of Los Angeles Graffiti has been researching graffiti since 1990. Susan shares with us her vast knowledge and discoveries, including graffiti dating back to the early 20th century by legendary hobo A-No. 1. We welcome back Gary Floyd (Dicks, Sister Double Happiness). Gary talks about growing up in Gurdon, Arkansas, moving to Austin and forming the Dicks, and touring with Nirvana with Sister Double Happiness. Sergej Vutuc—photographer, zine maker, skateboarder and musician now based in Paris, France—contributes his skateboarding photographs that are like none other. buZ blurr of Colossus of Roads fame writes about connecting with Bill Daniel in the early '90s, during Bill's search for Bozo Texino. buZ also contributed art for this issue. Linda Kite writes about her relationship with D Boon (Minutemen) and the Desolation Center shows around LA in the early to mid '80s. Also in this issue you'll find more art and photographs as well as writings about skateboarding, music, art and friendship. It is my hope that this issue will inspire you to keep searching, keep creating and keep living through these troubled times. 56 pages, $4. Check the different options on the site. Buy the zine, shirt and sticker for only $20!
