 collaboration with Futura. Futura 2000 is a contemporary American graffiti artist. Over the course of his career, he transitioned from making New York-based subway graffiti in the early 1970s.

 Futura (b. 1955) : Futura is an American graffiti artist who is best known for his work with the Fun Gallery in the early 1980s. He has had several monikers throughout his career, including Futura 2000 and his birth name of Lenny McGurr. He is one of the pioneers of spray paint art and should be considered in the same sentence with other luminaries from this time period like Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. Futura has enjoyed much commercial success, starting with his painted backdrops during the 1981 European tour with the band The Clash.

Futura has done much to mix the worlds of art and commerce. He’s collaborated with some of the biggest brands in the world. He’s worked with Nike, The North Face, Supreme, Levi’s, and A Bathing Ape. This culminated in his own clothing label, Futura Laboratories, which opened a store in Fukuoka, Japan. His work has appeared in exhibitions at the Fun Gallery, Shafrazi Gallery, Magda Danysz Gallery in Paris, and the Phillippe Briet Gallery.
