Graffiti: Muelle, Anna

Juan Carlos Argüello, Muelle (1966 – 1995).
He was the pioneer of the graffiti in Spain in the 80’s. His nickname was Muelle and he was member of the Movida Madrileña. It stopped painting in 1993 because he thought that no longer had something to communicate. In 1995 he died because of a liver cancer. He hasn’t any exterior influence and he created a new and exclusive graffiti. His style was easy, legible and of a single outline.He hasn’t good material for paint, but he was the most important writer of Spain in the 80’s, and today is a legend.
