THE ART OF WAR: The work of Trevor Paglen, Wendover, UT, and other subjects
KW, New York City

This is wrong. Like putting animals in a zoo – wrong. I don’t know Banksy, but from what I can tell he would not be a fan of the nation’s elite putting a wretched Plexiglas frame over one of his pieces of PUBLIC ART. I also don’t think he would have approved of this font… Read More
A few images of graffiti from all over the globe i have collected since last week. Enjoy!
One thing I hope the readers of TTHU get out of our project is knowledge.

I know what you are thinking because I was thinking the same shit, but ignorance be gone! SL,UT has a decent graff scene. In fact 2 of the biggest graff mags known the world over were produced out of this town thanks to the rediculous amount of west to eastbound freights that convene here, load up, Read More
SHUTTLE has a new jam up on RCRDLBL, a new remix of the song Animal by NEON TREES. First track on the playlist!
Our girl UTAH is getting all kinds of attention these days. Since she turned herself in Wednesday to face charges of tagging trains in Queens, the online world has been buzzing, refereeing to her as a “Graffiti Babe” and part of a “Bonnie and Clyde” graffiti ring!

TTHU would like to know your thoughts on this matter. Is UTAH equivalent to a modern day Bonnie and Clyde? Is her work ILL? (YES!) Leave a comment or hit us up at thatsthehookup.com[at]gmail.com
