A Major Majority returns to San Francisco’s Mirus Gallery for the fourth chapter in Poesia’s collection of OtherContemporary artists from around the world. Poesia, prolific curator of Grafffuturism.com, ignited the growth of a burgeoning abstract, progressive Graffiti-composite movement when he and EKG crafted the phrase in the first show’s exhibition statement. Grasping the coalescing of graffiti, street and urban art, the pair of artists describe this major minority as “A new generation born into a new world with a resultant model for aesthetics, art-making, distribution and consumption … always mutating, who will continue to gestate outside of academia and the current art world system, continuing to create progressive, hybridized art forms that are truly relevant to the current and following generations.”

For this decidedly more intimate iteration, Poesia has chosen to exhibit a smaller group of artists in order to concentrate on a deeper and condensed appreciation of amalgamated aesthetics. Nevertheless, this focused grouping doesn’t spotlight on any one sub-genre exclusively, illustrates a broad continuum of approaches. In featuring some of the globe’s most distinctive urban artists, Poesia extracts the true character of an art form born of truth, based on interactions in and with the public in an urban landscape. A Major Minority passionately illustrates the current pulse of this art form as “traditional graffiti merges with street art and becomes what the public has coined Urban Art.”

A Major Minority opens with a public reception of Friday, March 6th, 7 to 10 pm with participating artists: 1010, Bennett, Clemens Behr, David Mesguich, Defer, Doze Green, Duncan Jago, Faust, Felipe Pantone, Filippo Minelli, Graphic Surgery, Jaybo Monk, Jerry Inscoe, Julio ACAB, Kema, Mathew Chavarria, Moneyless, Nelio, Ratur, Remi Rough, Sckaro/Oscar Maslard, Slak, St. Monci, and more to be announced.

A Major Minority: 10 Years of Graffuturism opens at Mirus Gallery in San Francisco on March 6, 2020, with an opening reception from 7 to 10 pm.
