Martino Auto Concepts - Ferrari Art Car
Crash (b. John Matos, Bronx, New York, Oct. 11, 1961) is a graffiti artist. As early as 13, John Matos was spray painting New York City trains, the full image art as opposed to simpler tagging soon transferred to silk screened canvas. He was first noticed through his murals on subway cars and dilapidated buildings, he is now regarded as a pioneer of the Graffiti art movement. His work is said to convey a "visual link between street life and established society". In 1980, Crash curated the now iconic exhibition:"Graffiti Art Success for America" at Fashion MODA, launching the graffiti movement that has remained very active through today. By the 1980s Matos had exhibits across the United States and abroad. Galerie Yaki Kornblit was the first instrumental gallery in Amsterdam that help launch his career in Europe. In 1981 Crash, along with 10 other artists were chosen by The Public Art Fund to design animated imagery for The Spectacolor Billboard in Times Square. He was given his first gallery showing by Sidney Janis at the Sidney Janis Gallery in 1983. Chase Manhattan, N.A., as well as CITIBANK, N.A., and other collections came calling.
Now, on Saturday, March 29, 2014, "Crash" joins Martino Auto Concepts (MAC) of Glen Cove, NY to paint the "Ferrari Art Car".
September 11, 2013
View of Lower Manhattan from the Brooklyn Promenade late last night. I'll be back out there tonight September 11, 2013 at sunset to capture Tribute in Light and at sunrise on September 12 , 2013 to watch the lights turn off. 12 years later and we never forget that day, where we were and who we were. So much has changed and yet so much has stayed the same.

Documenting a 17 day trip starting in Portland, Maine across the Maritime Region of Canada, and then up even further North in to Newfoundland, Canada. While there are many images to look at (113 images) please take the time to look, and leave me some feedback.
I will be pushing various images on my Instagram account (@JonathanHeisler) in the coming weeks so check them out there as well.
Below are some photos and attached is a link to the full gallery.
Welcome
Welcome to my new site.
Photography has been a journey. It starts with an idea or a preconceived notion and becomes much, much more. It requires nothing more than a camera and a blank canvas consisting of a memory card or film.
I hope to keep this blog up to date with my travels, daily adventures and future plans. As a recent college graduate, just "figuring things out" takes a lot of time and understanding those changes takes even longer. My blog should be a reflection of those changes and I hope you will see them in my photographs, their captions and the stories they tell.
