T-Kid

Julius Cavero, known as T-Kid170, started as a street tagger in the Bronx. Influenced by early graffiti artists, he turned subway cars into rolling canvases. After being shot in 1977, he became a renowned graffiti artist, competing with legends like Dondi and Seen.

In the 1980s, T-Kid collaborated with Parisian graffiti artists, enhancing his style. He participated in major exhibitions and his work was displayed alongside Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring. His image appeared in Marc Ecko's video game "Getting Up."

Today, T-Kid travels the world to exhibit his art and give lectures on positive expression through graffiti.

Collaborating with the cultural Hip Hop center "La Place" in Paris, he is proud to support a space where young people can express themselves positively, an opportunity he did not have growing up In the Bronx.
