About
Antonio Agee doesn't easily give up wearing shades, and it's not for fear of losing his anonymity. Those darkly tinted glasses offer an irreverent balance to the dab of hair that hangs at the end of his chin as an in-your-face exclamation point. For a graffiti artist who signs his work with the tag "Shades," making art is as much about projecting a defiant attitude as it is coming up with a clever composition. And attitude spills in all directions from Agee, as if sprayed wildly from an aerosol can of paint. -Frank Provinzano
