“Wisk One” is one of the founding fathers of the Los Angeles graffiti movement. In addition to educating an entire generation of West Coast writers with his styles and tactics as a notorious bomber during the 1980s, Wisk is proud to be recognized as one of the custodians of the Los Angeles graffiti culture with his vast collection of mementos and memories that represent every corner of the graffiti scene. Wisk co-authored, published and designed a book series that documents the history of the Los Angeles graffiti movement. The first volume titled “The History of Los Angeles Graffiti Art, Volume 1, 1983-1988”, documents the beginning of the graffiti movement that would change the writing on the walls in Los Angeles forever. In addition, it became the first graffiti book publication ever to solely premier at the MOCA (Grand) in downtown Los Angeles. Wisk is dedicated to positively representing the Los Angeles graffiti art movement, culture, and phenomena. In addition to securing the personal narratives of graffiti artists on the pages of his publication, he continues to secure legal wall space around Los Angeles for active graffiti artists hoping to refine their skills and expose their vision to the community at large. He and his partner "Relax" hope to release “The History of Los Angeles Graffiti Art, Volume 2, 1989-1994” by Los Angeles Graffiti Art, Volume 2, 1989-1994” by the Summer of 2012.
