"Legendary graffiti artist Daniel "Chaka" Ramos once claimed he had tagged more than 40,000 locations around Los Angeles. He can now add seven more. And unlike decades ago - when Ramos had to sneak around in darkness to spray-paint his nickname in large, block letters all over the city and surrounding areas - this time it was fully permissible. Earlier this month, Nike recruited Ramos to add his signature style to seven murals celebrating the Dodgers' back-to-back World Series titles, which the team clinched Nov."
"The Nike murals, which are scheduled to remain up through Nov. 30, are among the pieces included in a new and quickly expanding online map detailing the locations of Dodgers murals in and around L.A. The map was created by and is curated by Mike Asner, the mastermind behind a similar website that documents the locations of hundreds of Kobe and Gianna Bryant murals around the world."
Legendary graffiti artist Daniel "Chaka" Ramos added seven Nike-commissioned murals celebrating the Dodgers' back-to-back World Series titles. The project marked Ramos's first major corporate collaboration and featured his signature name and Nike-crafted slogans. The murals were scheduled to remain through Nov. 30. An online, quickly expanding map now documents the locations of Dodgers murals in and around Los Angeles, including the new Nike pieces. The map was created and is curated by Mike Asner, who also maintains a global Kobe and Gianna Bryant mural database. Asner had already documented 54 Dodgers murals with more emerging across the city.
