To celebrate the launch of the fifth Montana ICONIC Series release featuring legendary New York graffiti artist BLADE, Montana Cans partnered with the Dedicated Store Cologne for an exclusive release event that brought true old-school energy to the heart of the city.
Fans and writers from across the region gathered for the rare opportunity to meet one of graffiti’s most influential figures. BLADE spent the afternoon creating a live painting, signing books and limited ICONIC Series cans, and sharing insights from his early years on the New York subways.
The vibe was electric: good conversations, excitement from longtime admirers, and a strong sense of community as visitors came together to celebrate both the ICONIC release and BLADE’s enduring legacy.
For more on the drop, check out our event video recap and dive deeper into graffiti history with our exclusive interview with BLADE, in which he reflects on the 70s and 80s, his most active years, and the story behind the panel featured on his ICONIC can.
