Description:
Located in Pantin (northeast of Paris), the general warehouses (Magasins Généraux) of the customs have been abandoned for years and became a spot for graffiti artist from Paris and the rest of the world.
Moving to this building, the advertising agency BETC commissioned photographers Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre to shoot this concrete building before the works, while Karim Boukercha, graffiti specialist, tells us the history of graffiti in Paris from the barricades surrounding the Beaubourg Center project at the begining of the eighties to the Magasin général.
Graffiti général is an important contribution to the urban history of Paris and street art.
The typeface have been created by Change is good.
