Description
Skateboard graphics took a quantum leap in offensive potential after the sport was reborn in the '90s. Artists such as Marc McKee, Todd Francis, Johnny 'Mojo' Munnerlyn, Winston Tseng and others brought dark humour and politically incorrect topics to the forefront of their illustrations, aiming to raise serious issues and skewer values. Agents Provocateurs asks new questions of this boundary-pushing artistic genre and its place over the years. Did it save skateboarding? Are these controversial topics still relevant 20 years later?
