Taking Over was, for nearly 15 years, Italy's go-to underground graff zine, printed strictly in black and white because, when letters stand out, color becomes secondary.

As part of the Graffiti Books collection, this anthology honours Roberto Malpensa, aka Repo, a TO founder and true pioneer in the Italian graffiti scene.

From the hardcore xerographic prints of the early days to the more refined high-definition Offset editions, the mantra was always “Keeping it Real,” without compromise.

This book compiles the full collection from 2002 to 2015, initially distributed by hand and later through our Graffiti Mailorder.

It also includes an exclusive special edition dedicated to Repo, featuring the best of his work from 1994 to 2014.

Why does the CIA praise graffiti as a colorful symbol of the optimism and hope of the Western World while officials in many cities describes the same phenomenon as a criminal activity and a representation of unsafety and social problems?

Graffiti is a word used to denote a complex system of actions and things, which is often described as a singular phenomenon. Graffiti has been understood and evaluated in many ways, often opposing each other. Graffiti may therefor both be evoked as one of the most influential art movements on the planet, and dismissed as something that destroys private property and turns a neighborhood into slum. It is hailed as a modern day childhood adventure and denounced as gang related criminality.

In his Ph.D. thesis The G-Word, art historian and former graffiti writer Jacob Kimvall studies different ways of describing and framing graffiti in four historical and cultural contexts: The graffiti writing on the Berlin wall; the Zero Tolerance on graffiti in Stockholm during the 1990s; The interactions between subcultural graffiti and the cultural and commercial interest of the institutional art world in the 1970s and 80s; The collecting, organizing and publishing of images by graffiti enthusiasts.

The G-Word visualize how different institutions, public and commercial interests have acted to influence and affect the understanding of graffiti as both art, crime and a broad socio-cultural phenomenon.

TOPSPRAYER EXPIRED - The limitation period edition The INTERNATIONAL TOPSPRAYER book published by Publikat in 2011 - which has been sold out for several years and traded at horrendous prices on Ebay - is now coming back in a completely revised limitation period edition.

Like the first version, the successor will again feature the legendary lenticular shaking cover, which crisply sums up their concept. It is believed that shortly after its release, a note similar to the following will be found in the files of various graffiti investigation groups: "Between 2007 and 2010, the defendants MOSES and TAPS switched their pseudonyms.

With the help of an unknown number of others involved in the crime, they bombed 1000 trains over a period of 1000 days. In May 2011, they published their deeds in the illustrated book INTERNATIONAL TOPSPRAYER.\

However, since no evidence of perpetration could be derived from the book, the relevant preliminary proceedings had to be finally closed after ten years due to the occurrence of the statute of limitations according to section 78 of the Criminal Code.

After the expiry of the statute of limitations, MOSES & TAPS are now clearing the air with the book TOPSPRAYER EXPIRED, MOSES & TAPS now comprehensively admit all accusations of the proceedings in words and pictures.

Furthermore, the suspects supplement the accusations with previously unknown photographs and descriptions of the crimes.

In addition, several hundred previously unknown graffiti crimes are documented, especially from the years 2011 and 2012.
