Benefit Gig - Support DPM - Saturday Night, Jamm, Brixton

Free DPM | 22.10.2008 16:22 | Culture | Social Struggles

The aim is to show support for a group of friends that have been incarcerated for graffiti and to raise awareness to the injustice of imprisoning people who paint graffiti. In a society where 'street/urban art' is exhibited on the walls of the Tate Modern, London and sold in auction houses around the world the messages are mixed.
