We’re proud to announce that legendary photographer Jon Naar is the latest artist to participate in our “Wooster Special Edition” project. This new project follows sold out editions from such artists as Faile, Shepard Fairey, Space Invader, BAST, and Darius and Downey.
Most often when we ask a graffiti or street artist what their favorite book is, inevitably the answer will be: The Faith Of Graffiti
Published 35 years ago, The Faith Of Graffiti, is a meditation of tags, marks, concrete and trains. Legendary photographer Jon Naar captured a moment in history with the eye of a outsider combined with the precision of an architecture and design photographer. Norman Mailer wrote a text that is perhaps more relevant today than ever before.
Until now, Faith of Graffiti has been out-of-print and completely impossible to find. But this month Faith of Graffiti as been re-released in an expanded edition with new cropping and additional photos.
To celebrate the re-release of Faith Of Graffiti, Wooster Collective worked with Jon Naar to create an exclusive print in a numbered edition of 300. The “Wooster Collective Special Edition” includes both the signed print and a signed book.
From the publisher:
“This new edition of The Faith of Graffiti, the first in more than three decades, brings this vibrant work—the seminal document on the origins of street art—to contemporary readers. Photographer Jon Naar has enhanced the original with thirty-two pages of additional photographs that are new to this edition, along with an afterword in which he reflects on the project and the meaning it has taken on in the intervening decades.”

We salute the ‘Big West Coast 70′s Studio Sound.
Celebrating the bygone, golden age of recording studios, big budgets, smooth rock and the west cost sound of the mid 70′s to the early 80′s in all its overblown and ultra produced glory. Myself and Jon Tye are joined by our very special guest Leo Zero, producer, remixer, art director and designer extraordinaire.

In Leo’s own words…
I’ve got this image of a pipe smoking guy in a cable knit sweater carefully adjusting a Fairchild compressor worth tens of thousands of dollars….or a shot from the back of a Steely Dan album where they’ve just recorded the 50th different guitar solo take for Peg and have finally struck gold.
It’s like sonic perfection was finally accomplished sometime in 1974 in a gargantuan studio in California called something like “Sea Haze” and ever since we’ve been marvelling at how and why nothing has ever sounded quite so syrupy-rich and gorgeous ever again….
One part BBC stereophonic workshop, one part George Lucas’s Industrial Light and Magic, and one part country club (with cocaine instead of boiled sweats in a bowl on the reception) these places were the epicentre of all things Soft Rock, Yacht Rock, decadent and overblown.
The sonic elves & wizards who inhabited these realms where the cooler, hairier Californinan cousins of our chocolate brown clad open university type. With their original ‘nerd chic’…like British 70′s techies but with a technicolour LA / Frisco glow. Just like that Fast Show guy, but with valve amps instead of test tubes.
These Studios offered up A decades worth of incredibly lush headphone treats before slowly going a bit pear-shaped by the mid eighties. Just like Dirk Diggler’s painful Boogie Nights recording session. It was all over by 1985 – all the drums had nasty gated tin can reverb and the haircuts we’re more memorable than the music.
But for a while these places, and ‘The Dan’, ‘The Mac’, ‘The Doobie’s and all their contemporaries had hit musical perfection, with an audio mastering, and vinyl production zenith at the time to match.
To anyone with a decent pair of ears, these slabs of vinyl history make todays mp3s sound like a serious step backward… So tonight we’ll be focusing on big, daft, 70′s rock records that hit you like being tango’ed with a thick creamy wodge of Rhodes Piano and vocal harmony -
So tonight it’s all about a “rich tapestry of sound / sonic landscapes / analogue warmth / dynamic range” – man.

If you’re not heading to the Bristol Gallery show tonight, or even if you are and you somehow happen to get round the quality work in a shortish time, then there’s something you should head over to at Metropolis.
It’s a fundraiser for a couple of charities in Haiti doing good work, and as ever the graf community has stepped up to help.
Amongst other things being auctioned, there’s work by 3rd Eye, Sepr and a special ‘friends only’ edition of an early Nick Walker Vandal print, donated by someone with a pedigree all of their own. There’s a small reserve on it natch, but if you’re into your Bristol graf, you could do much worse than be down there for a cheeky bid, you never know what will happen at auctions.
It’s compered by the inimitable Art Tart, and there’s all sorts of other antics going on too, burlesque, belly dancing and a dood playing a saw. Dubrovnik DJ set too, top stuff. Metropolis is an ace venue since they sorted the sound out, so why not warm up for the weekend and give some money to people who need it more than we can imagine right now?
£6 on the door, 7pm to 2am, you know it makes sense. More chat on Facebook if you need it.
