Following up on the success of the Multi-Award Winning Graffiti Verite Documentary Video Series, Filmmaker Bob Bryan has completed GV4, the ultimate Primer / Tutorial and Step-by- Step Program on Spray Can Art. Most popular amongst Educators, the series has given outsiders a rare glimpse into the outstanding Art and eclectic personalities behind the controversial Graffiti Art Movement. In GV4, Cleveland, Ohio Artist SANO (two-time winner of The International Graffiti Art Competition) pulls you into the Underground Art form by showing the concepts, aesthetics, techniques, and style needed to complete a perfect semi Wild Style masterpiece (on a Legal Wall) as well as Aerosol Art on Canvas. GV4 is a must-have-Video for Art Instructors, Art Students, Galleries, Museums, Libraries and Educational Institutions who"ve been bewildered at Spray Can Technique. As a unique lesson plan, no other program exists in the marketplace of ideas, that can compare to the inspiration, skill and intelligence of GV4. Graffiti Art, is Art first!Graffiti in itself is a label applied to the Aerosol Art Culture, and usually carries the negative connotation that Graffiti Art is not a viable Art Form. However, to define Graffiti or Aerosol Art as scribbling or scrawling on a wall, or for an artist to let his tool dictates his or her style of work, is detrimental to the idea of being an artist in this Art Form.

SANO sheds a positive light on the stereotypical misunderstandings and mystique behind the discipline and creative process involved in Aerosol Art.

This transformation from contemplative graphic designer, to explosive aerosol warrior is mesmerizing, as he aggressively grabs his spraycan, ready to do battle with the wall. SANO exorcises his demons and repression"s on the wall like noone I"ve seen before. The love he has for his art is obvious in his body language, and funny verbal quips about his many observations. Graffiti Art has provided him with an powerful outlet to express his secret obsessions and raison d"tre. One of the many personal issues that drives SANO, is his mixed East / West dialectical Genetic heritage. Born from a Japanese Mother and African-American Father, there is an internal war constantly surging throughout his body. Alternating currents of passive / aggression pulsation"s run havoc throug
