Samuel E Vazquez - Don't Call Him a Graffiti Artist
Today, Samuel E V\xe1zquez wears many hats. He is an artist, a designer, and an educator, to name a few. In the early days, however, he was known by a different name - "Brame," his graffiti tag. Today, his art has evolved past the street and into some of the most recognizable spots in the Midwest. His work has lived in the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Bankers Life Fieldhouse, and the NCAA Hall of Champions.
\nIn this episode, we discuss:
\n- \n
- Samuel's path from Puerto Rico to New York City and, eventually, to Indianapolis. \n
- His view on "street art," and why he rebels against the word "graffiti." \n
- How a week-long suspension in high school set him on the path to becoming a widely-respected artist. \n
