It was a sad day for graffiti aficionados recently with the death of IZ the WIZ, a street-art legend who broke onto the scene in NYC in the ’70s and later shared his craft on a global scale. He beautified subway cars in Gotham City, the pages of dozens of graffiti art books and has been profiled in tons of magazine. IZ, who recently put on a show at Tuff City in the Bronx, was an influential graffiti legend — a wizard with the paint can — and he will be dearly missed.
