Description

Early designs for 'Graffiti Wall'

Circa 1987 ‘Graffiti Wall’ artwork designs by artist Marjorie Fedyszyn for the proposed motion picture Graffiti Bridge. The designs comprise a three-piece standing layout, approximately measuring 16 x 9.25 when placed together, which depicts a large bridge with various graffiti tags against a cityscape background. The tags covering the bridge consist of various character names and song titles written for the original script, including: “Camille,” “Ruthie Washington,” “The Grand Progression,” “Almost,” “Levi,” “Sax,” “Angel,” “Miko,” “Joshua,” “Big Sister,” “Melody Cool,” “Vienn[a],” “Gruff,” and “Beatown.” Also includes a 1.5 x 4.5 scale cutout of Prince, further layout designs and dimensions for the intended final version, and a list of costs for construction of ‘Graffiti Wall.’ In fine condition. From the collection of Prince’s former assistant.
