RETNA

MOCA TV

RETNA is the latest video in MOCAtv’s Art In the Streets series. Throughout the film Los Angeles based graffiti writer Retna discusses his life, his love, and his motivation to create art.

The video highlights Retna’s position as an innovative unifier of culture. Through his uniquely curated alphabet of Old English, Hebrew, Arab, Asian and other calligraphy Retna has created his own universal text that translates his emotions, dreams, and poetry. As gallery owner Michael Kohn notes Retna is "Franz Kline meets Keith Haring," sophisticated yet deeply rooted in the traditions of the street art crews Retna either ran or became member to from the late 1980's through today. He has been featured in numerous museum exhibitions including MOCA's own Art in The Streets, which in 2011 attracted record attendance and was lauded as a great testament to how far graffiti and street art have come in the last 40 years.
