Legendary graffiti artists Saber and Zes, both affiliates of The Seventh Letter and MSK, have painted a new mural in Downtown Los Angeles. With LA’s “Arts District” long known as the epicenter for the arts and art commerce, the video opens with the two artists reminiscing about tagging in the neighborhood during their early years.
