Not the movie (which is also very good), but the graffiti artist from the Bronx whose tags have been exhibited in museums and on custom-painted guitars for Eric Clapton. This article puts Crash (John Matos) in town with one of my favorite painters/taggers the late Jean Michel Basquiat. The reason for this post? Tumi had Crash “tag” a limited edition line of “Tumi Tag” cases priced at $445 – 545. The interior of each case features one of four working drawings created by Crash and includes a unique number that authenticates the case as a distinct piece in the exclusive collection. Only 1,000 of each Tumi Tag luggage style have been produced for this limited edition series.
