RENE GAGNON
Rene Gagnon is a graffiti and street artist that has been tagging, spray-painting and wheat-pasting the streets in the southern industrial cities of Massachusetts since the 1980s. His work evolved very early on, mixing graffiti and then avant-garde techniques with his use of stencils, layer accumulations and graffiti abstractions. Gagnon has a very strong local reputation but he still remains much lesser known to the general public. He is not unknown, however, to some more famous artists such as Banksy and Mr. Brainwash. By 2010, many street art blogs and forums such as NuArt began pointing out the strange resemblances between what Banksy and MBW were making with earlier works of Rene Gagnon. Banksy noticed the talks spreading online and contacted Rene Gagnon directly to apologize about this incident... (More about the story at the event)
