Futura 2000 (born 1955) is an internationally acclaimed graffiti artist. He started to paint illegally on New York’s subway in the early seventies, working with other artists such as ALI. More recently, he is a successful graphic designer and gallery artist. One of the most distinctive features about Futura’s work is his abstract approach to graffiti art. While the primary focus, during the 1980’s, of the majority of graffiti artists was lettering, Futura pioneered abstract street-art, abstract graffiti which has since become more popular. Conversely, his aerosol strokes are regarded as different from those of his peers, as they are as thin as the fine lines achieved only through the use of an airbrush.

Recently much of Futura 2000’s artwork is channeled towards the production of highly collectible toys, and during the 1990’s he was heavily involved with the clothing companies.
