Exposing His Prbleoms

KRSN started writing on the walls of Paris’s suburbs back in the 80’s when Hip Hop was slowly but surely taking over the streets of France. Subsequently, he spent the following decade literally spinning on his head with spraypaint until 2000, when he decided to forge a new career. On many occasions, he collaborated with French clothing line Six-Pack, and he started doing more illustration work for magazines as well. KRSN’s style is simple but strong. He creates character sketches with a minimal use of color - he says he’d rather use black and white as “you only need one color to express an emotion.” Montreal’s Off the Hook will be hosting the artist’s very first exhibit in its newly renovated store/art space. The artist declined to give us a lot of details about the show, but it promises to be full of surprises! Opening last Friday, (December 14th) the show is poised to make KRSN a familiar name, on and off the streets. For more info click here.
