“War of Words,” a publication commemorating the 20th anniversary of the graffiti crew WOW, was released ten years ago. This ephemeral publication, designed in a newspaper format to mirror the transitory nature of graffiti art, garnered significant attention. A limited edition of only 450 copies was rapidly distributed globally, selling out within days. A promotional video emphasizing the project’s exclusivity further amplified its reach.

Recently, a small batch of “War of Words” photos was discovered in storage. This unexpected find has led to a special package combining it with a new publication, “Why oh Why.” This latter publication chronicles the subsequent decade (2010-2020), complementing the original’s coverage of the crew’s first twenty years (1989-2010). “Why oh Why” features previously unpublished material from 2010 to 2020 presented in a folded poster format, accompanied by a carefully curated selection of photographs. Both “Why oh Why x War of Words” and “Why oh Why” are individually packaged in numbered envelopes.”

In the current issue, we have included a lot of highlights, some changes and insights. No interview in this issue. So we have more space for creativity from the streets, walls, rooftops, tenements and walls. A bit about so-called high culture, including Krik Kong in the salons of Zachęta. And also the favourite colourful trains. A few photo reports from jams (Meeting of Styles, SUN Festival Airport Battle). In addition, an account of the emerging graffiti and mural initiative in Częstochowa under the slogan Support Culture Graffiti Jam – Kartkowanie Rąk Nie Brudzi. The past summer period, which stretched into winter, was marked by stationary jams and tensions on the Internet. Let’s do graffiti, not tensions – let’s let the passion unite, not divide.
