From the book\u2019s introduction:<\/p>\n

\n

Throughout the decades of 1980 and 1990 the New York tradition of graffiti conquered the whole European continent. But by the early eighties graffiti was nothing new for many urban youth in Europe. Graffiti done by punks was commonplace \u2014 slogans, bands\u2019 names and personal nicknames. And punk-originated tagging scenes had developed in some cities with little knowledge of what had been happening in New York.<\/p>\n

Two scenes in particular grew to become full-fledged competitions for all-city visibility and reached a notable degree of maturity regarding graphics, methodology and values. One was the Amsterdam scene, started in the late seventies and faded around 1984. The other was the \u201cflechero\u201d graffiti from Madrid, practiced mostly during the second half of the eighties.<\/p>\n

Both scenes disappeared when the New York tradition of graffiti became better known through the arrival of books and documentaries. The imported culture was far more complex than the local ones, and in many senses more interesting, so many writers abandoned the local codes and started to explore the game of tags, throw-ups, pieces and trains.<\/p>\n

[\u2026]<\/p>\n

In the late 1970s an intense but casual tagging scene was developed in Amsterdam by punk and squatter kids. By the turn of the decade a second generation of writers not necessarily connected to punk took over and really pushed the idea of getting up and going all-city. The scene thrived until the New York tradition of graffiti was imported and widely adopted by local writers in the mid eighties.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>
