Painted Graves – Triple Set

Olivier Scuro a.k.a. OPAK is a notorious French trainwriter who made a name for himself throughout Europe starting in the early 90s. In the legendary Dirty Handz movies he, his crew mates from the SDK and WUFC and befriended writers manifested their outstanding panels and wholecars into the European history of graffiti. In 2001 he was forced to stop painting trains in France due to massive and effective police investigations against him and his friends.

During the Covid pandemic in 2020 OPAK started working on the first Painted Graves volume, followed by the work on the sequel in the same year. The Painted Graves Triple Set includes both volumes and a third limited edition booklet: Painted Graves – RELICS. This 156-paged publication was originally only included as part of the sold out signed box set. Luckily the printing company did an overproduction and now it is available for everyone who missed the chance to grab the box set.

“I sift through old archives, pairing images with fleeting recollections. But soon, it spills over. In the quiet theater of my mind, this is what didn’t make the final cut for ‘Painted Graves’.”

The 10,5 x 14 cm softcover consists not only of outtake photos, but tons of unpublished pieces accompanied with introducing texts with more information on the locations, their story, missing shots of joining writers back in the days and from the revisit missions to paint the discarded trains. The 156-paged softcover also features ALL, BYOFA, CHEF, CHILL, COKNEY, DIOS, DOING, DORK, FAME, FANCIE, GOAT, HONET, INOK, INUPIE, INXS, JUNKY, KAZE, KRASH, MANK, MEOT, OAME, PEPSIE, PIFER, POES, PUM, RENO, REMO, REW, RISK, RUZD, SEAR, SHEIK, SIME, SKEME, STAR, WEEDY, and ZEVO.

The set compiles hundreds of shots from Europe’s top notch trainwriters on a total of 700 pages! Since Painted Graves – RELICS is limited to 100 copies only we put together a few triple sets for you. Save your triplet now before the booklet is gone!
