So after meeting Geff, the idea for my FMP has been resolved. I will be taking on the role as the curator of a legal Wall of Fame for Chelsea. For fourteen weeks I will be organising numerous graffiti writers from as far and wide as possible to come down and paint an allocated wall, each time filming the productions in order to display at the Final Show. At the end of the fourteen weeks a possible round up is for me to paint the wall myself getting three writers to judge whether I have learnt anything above my own abilities.
The aim of this project is to bring the graffiti writers out of the shadows and to display their creativity. This also brings the recognition of the art form to Chelsea.

hey jerrome
i've got a good website for you to check out, if you re interested in cutting edge graffiti stuff:
graffitiresearchlab.com
maybe you could also showcase some graffiti work thats pushing the boundaries of what is traditionally understood as graffiti art. good luck

Make sure at the end of it your role isn't completely curatorial as it would be quite difficult to mark you in regards to that.

Jerrome...can you ahve agood look around the Millbank site andcome up with a number of possibel sites for the 'Wall of Fame'...Chelsea management are ok in pronciple but we have to discuss actual spaces...also consider wall space naer the Trinagle Space, in regards to the final exhibition.
