Roger Gastman (born 1977 in Canton, Ohio) is an art dealer, curator, filmmaker, and publisher who focuses on graffiti and street art. Career In 1997, Gastman began his career in graffiti culture by selling aerosol paint tips and creating the graffiti magazine While You Were Sleeping. In 2004, Gastman moved to Los Angeles and published Swindle Magazine with Shepard Fairey. He has worked with a number of prominent graffiti and street artists including Banksy, Barry McGee, Os Gemeos, Shepard Fairey, and Mister Cartoon. In 2013, Gastman produced The Legend of Cool "Disco" Dan, a documentary film that premiered at the AFI Theater in Silver Spring, Maryland accompanied by the book Pump Me Up: DC Subculture of the 1980s and an exhibit of the same name at the Corcoran Gallery of Art. In 2021 he directed Rolling Like Thunder, a documentary film about freight train graffiti produced by Mass Appeal and released on Showtime. Art In The Streets In 2011 Gastman, with MOCA director Jeffrey Dietch and director Aaron Rose, curated a survey of graffiti and street art at the Museum of Contemporary Art Los Angeles titled Art in the Streets. The exhibition featured a wide-range of mediums in separate installations by artists or 'crews' and was held in the 40,00 square foot Geffen building, off-site from MOCA. It included over 60 artists from around the world. The show generated controversy according to the Los Angeles Times "mostly because some see it as a glorification of vandalism". The LAPD reported an increase in vandalism in the vicinity on buildings, lampposts and mailboxes. Katsu tagged the Geffen building before the opening with a fire-extinguisher and French street artist Invader was arrested as a result of the show. A second showing of the exhibit scheduled for later in 2011 at the Brooklyn Museum was cancelled. The show is also noteworthy for being the most attended in the history of MOCA. Beyond The Streets Gastman is the curator and producer of Beyond The Streets, a traveling large-scale exhibition of street art and graffiti. The 2018 Beyond the Streets exhibition was held in downtown Los Angeles, CA, which spanned over 40,000 square feet and featured over 100 artists. The 2019 Beyond the Streets exhibition was held in Brooklyn, New York, showcasing the work of over 150 artists in 100,000 square feet. Beyond the Streets on Paper exhibited at the Southampton Arts Center in 2021. During
