Andrew Witten

ZEPHYR, born Andrew Witten, is a graffiti artist, lecturer and author from New York City. He began writing graffiti in 1975 using the name "Zephyr" in 1977. He is considered a graffiti "elder", who along with Futura 2000, Blade, PHASE 2, CASH, Lady Pink and TAKI 183 invented styles and standards which are still in use.

Much of Zephyr's original work was graffiti applied on New York City Subway rolling stock. Witten was part of the first wave of graffiti artists to make the transition to galleries, collectors and commercial work.
