Angered and frustrated by the sudden infatuation and commercialization of the graffiti movement, French street artist Kidult has taken to the streets of Paris in an effort to reclaim his craft. In a retaliation against major luxury labels, Kidult has tagged a string of stores in recent months that include colette, Agnés b., JC/DC and Supreme. The video above features a one-on-one interview with Kidult in his workshop and follows along as the vandal hits several major Parisian shopping destinations.
Kidult is probably the world’s most infamous graffiti artist, and is either considered a master of communications, a criminal, or both. Kidult has made quite a reputation for himself by going rogue in the streets of Paris and New York, and doing his thing on the most famous or luxurious shop windows out there: Hermès, Colette, JD/DC, Kenzo, Supreme, Agnès B, and more. So if you are a famous brand and you have or are using street art in your ads, he is coming after you with a message: graffiti is a protest, it is vandalism. What’s very particular about him and you will probably be shocked in the videos below is his method: most of the time he uses a fire extinguisher filled with pain to leave his signature…Nuts.
