MontanaCans Lookbook 2019

Every organisation that was built up on passion and a love of what they do, finds themselves more and more pro-active in their work each year. Montana Cans is no exception as we strive to make the best cans on earth. But that is no excuse to reflect on all the extra curriculum activities like collaborations, festival, project and artist support that happen through the year as well. After all this helped create history. The Montana Cans LOOKBOOK gives an outlet to remember, reflect and reward those who deserve a little extra attention with some extra glow of the spotlight. With great pleasure, we announce the online release of the Montana Cans LOOKBOOK 2019, looking back at some of the highlights of 2019. This edition delves into many projects such as the Montana Cans limited edition cans that featured Mina & Bruce (plus interview), Felipe Pantone, Most and Flying Förtress. We reminisce on the cool collabo's we were involved in with Happy Socks, Good Guy Boris and Reebok Sneakers. We get re-inspired by feature articles on artists IMAGINE, THE LONDON POLICE, FRAU ISA, 1010 and 1UP CREW. We take a look at some of the urban art festivals that raised the bar even higher like METROPOLINK, POW!WOW ROTTERDAM and the THE BERLIN MURAL FESTIVAL. With eyes wide open we scratch under the surface of some alternative disciplines within graffiti culture. The spotlight gets turned on ABSTRACT LETTERING, GRAFFITI ON FREIGHTS and CALLIGRAFFITI. We share some knowledge on the new products like the Montana BLACK INFRA colors and Montana BOLD marker line, which took the industry by storm. Just as the special moment that was the grand opening of the MONTANA STORE VIENNA with our industry partners CONCRETE, did. All this and more over 160 enthralling full color pages.

In contemporary graffiti it's<br />

not relevant if you’re old or<br />

young. It matters what you<br />

do, where you did it and how<br />

it looked. Instagram, Facebook<br />

and the buff limits your<br />

window of real world exposure<br />

as with most graffiti that<br />

came and went before you.<br />

Documentation and constant<br />

creation is your only hope to<br />

survive. Unlike in the white<br />

cube where artists are bought<br />

and sold/come and go, on the<br />

street your only as good as<br />

your last idea.<br />

In 2018 we were lucky<br />

enough to support and<br />

nurture some of these letter<br />

innovators that lay their<br />

focus not on regurgitating<br />

the classics, but in creating<br />

new classics for others to<br />

regurgitate later.<br />
