About

edit

Poster Boy is a decentralized group of vandals. Since the beginning, Poster Boy has remained anonymous and refuse to sell or sign any original work. The collective's work focuses the principles of hip hop, specifically the element of graffiti, by limiting almost all work to improvisation. Using only a razor blade, Poster Boy creates satiric collage-like works created by cutting out sections of the self-adhesive advertisement posters in the platforms of New York City Subway stations, and pasting them back in different positions. Poster Boy is also referred to a 'Poster Boy movement' where other people produce similar unsigned work in the New York City subways imitating this original artist. Even after their first arrest, of Brooklyn resident Henry Matyjewicz, the collective remains active online and on the streets.
