The Writes of Spring was a weekend event that ran
April 24-28, 2014, bringing together a small group of artists who focus on
typography in their work, ranging from traditional graffiti to blackletter
calligraphy.
A Word is an Image
The focus of the weekend-long WRITES OF SPRING was the art of the letterform. Bringing together a diverse group of artists whose primary output involves the interplay of typography, we sought to showcase its diversity, from traditional calligraphic forms to more traditional forms of graffiti. Featuring the work of BONES (Rochester), Queen Andrea (NYC), Niels "Shoe" Meulman (Amsterdam), Faust (NYC), Peeta (Italy), and Max Ripo (Barcelona).
