The Basketball court on Nansensgade was the city's first 'almost legal' place to paint graffiti. On a warm summer day when the spray vapour stood still to the ghetto blaster's pumping beats and the break and electric boogie dancers practised their latest moves on linoleum they'd with them, the feeling was total. You couldn't get closer to New York's slums without actually being there.
