Born in 1969, American artist Todd James began his career in the early 1980s, graffitiing on the New York City subways under the name REAS. Like many graffiti writers, James was inspired by cartoons and often channeled politics and humor into his work. But unlike most, he mastered the practical challenges of good design at an early age, transitioning to a career that seamlessly bridged the gap between the worlds of graffiti, commercial art and fine art. His paintings and installations have been exhibited in galleries and museums worldwide, including both the 2001 and 2015 Venice Biennale. James is a co-creator of Street Market, a major work of the post-graffiti movement that debuted at the Philadelphia ICA in Pennsylvania in 1999 and was expanded at Deitch Projects in New York in 2000. A decade later, a re-creation of this work was the central installation of the Museum of Contemporary Art’s record-breaking Art in the Street exhibition in Los Angeles. He remains one of the most influential and inventive graffiti writers of any era.
