Tagger of the Week Contest
Whatever the target, taggers get the job done. From the majesty of the whitewash wall-tag to the clever irony of the Neighborhood Watch sign-tag, life is enhanced by the tireless work of these underappreciated graffiti artists.Today, I'd like to congratulate neighborhood tagger Midas for his Johnny-on-the-Spot tagging of the boarded-up window at Classique Beauty Salon. The salon was hit Friday night along with a couple of other establishments between Wilshire and 3rd Street on Fairfax, and Midas wasted no time in marking his territory.
First, as we check the work, we see some weak entries from up-and-comers ODDK and UEG at Kitchen Design in the South 400 block:
Come on, now! You got nothin'. NOTHING. Weak.
Those two, along with 3Ps, are also represented at the beauty salon:
...but that's no better. What, are you guys scared? Running low on paint? Clearly, Midas faced 'em.
So for Tagger of the Week, all bow down to King Midas!
Is there a dedicated, unrecognized tagger you know out there who's putting in a lot of hours? Nominate him or her for Tagger of the Week by emailing tagger@avantfolk.com.
