published by Pyramyd Editions


Originally from the north of France, Scien & Klor have been covering the walls of every continent with their writings since 1989. In 1992 they founded 123 Klan and teamed up with Dean, Sper, Skam and Reso. This crew with no geographical limitations mixes all the aspects of contemporary creation. Internationally recognized in the field of graffiti, 123 Klan invites us to discover their urban graphic design.

When they discovered Neville Brody’s work on typography, graphic art became a logical extension of their graffing.They produced their first digital graffs, and 123Klan were first to blend graffiti and graphic art on the Web, making it not just an exhibition tool but a new creative medium. The screen, like a blank wall, became a space to be laid out. In parallel, the influence of graphic art could be seen on their walls; everything revolved around lettering. For these trailblazers, graffiti and graphic art are closely linked and, as they say themselves, “everything’s a matter of style”. Internationally renowned on the graffiti scene (far more so than in France, strangely enough), 123Klan invite us through the doors of urban graphic art.
