Documentary made at the right place & time to capture a budding movement
Style War was an iconic film highlighting the budding youth culture coming out of New York City in the 1970s-80s. It focuses upon graffiti artists who started a new art form and were the bane of the city. The documentary also breaks done some of the stereotypes of the movement.<br /><br />First, there is beautiful footage of the New York City subway trains with small to large pieces covering the outsides. One has to be impressed by the art and the time it took to make them. While it starts off by saying that graffiti was part of the new Hip Hop culture coming out with rap music. There are plenty of great early Hip Hop tunes, break dancing, and even a dance battle at a club. However, some of the older writers were interviewed and said they actually started in the early 1970s before Rap even started with simply tagging their names on the trains. eventually that developed with more and more style and into larger and larger pieces. Another common myth that was dispelled was that it was all black and Latinos who were responsible. There are plenty of white youth who were out in the train yards as well.<br /><br />Second, there are all kinds of city officials from Mayor Koch on down talking about how bad graffiti was for the city. One official talks about how it was right up there with three card monty and pick pocketing. The city was in a constant battle with the artists attempting all kinds of new techniques from cleaning solvents to building fences and using dogs to deter the artists. It’s funny watching them complain. Eventually they would win however, but that’s not included in the movie.<br /><br />Last, the film talks about the different directions the artists took. Some became insurgents purposely painting over other people’s work. Some tried to hit the New York art scene and make money off of their pieces by selling them at galleries. That showed that movement was evolving and going in new directions.<br /><br />Overall, this is a great piece of documentary film making that captured a budding movement.<br />C
