Jon Naar: Superstar



Jon Naar was gracious enough to grant Toronto his presence on the 12th of November at Reset with a short presentation. Jon has been around for nearly 60 years taking photographs of almost everything. Although he is well known for is his documentation of the birth of grafitti in the early 70's, his photographs have captured a variety of subjects (including friends like Andy Warhol) and have reached incredible acclaim (all of which can be found in his newest book "Getting the Picture".

He will hopefully be returning in 2007 (at the age of 87) to celebrate the sequel to his book "The Faith of Grafitti", "The Birth of Grafitti". The book will examine many outtakes that never made it to the first book. Keep an eye out for it, its bound to be redhot shit. Check out more Jon Naar, here.
