About Lost: Lost | Graffiti
in the City of Angels is a highly acclaimed publication established
in 1998 by Eyeone of L.A.'s Seeking Heaven crew dedicated to the documentation
of visual culture on and off the streets of Los Angeles.
"I had almost given up hope of finding a decent looking graf
publication 'til I found an incredible gem of a zine simply titled Lost...
Thoughtfully layed out with a razor sharp design sense that is rarely
seen in the underground circuit."
Beautiful/Decay
"Lost is a product which strikes you as a true one-off; it is a
publication which feels like it has something really unique and special
about it. Something which is lovingly put together by someone who is
obviously really passionate about it, and consequently is a pleasure
to read.”
Graphotism
"Lost personifies L.A. graf and then some. The book takes the
typical graff mag format and flips it to both fit better for L.A. graff
and to inspire and represent progression in the art.”
