Seller's Description:
Dondi White, aka Donald Joseph White, aka The Style Master Genreal, was one of the seminal figures of the early Graffiti scene having fathered the progressive hand styles of the movement. He gained notoriety in the late 70s and early 80s "bombing" whole train cars with his Vaughn Bode inspired characters and wild style lettering. He was perhaps the most influential graffiti writer in terms of style. Dondi died in 1998 of AIDS.
This is a rare Aerosol and acrylic on canvas, signed on verso "Dondi White c. 1983 Reflections". Not many of his works come to auction.
