But don't just think of him as a vandal. Kane One has a Bachelor in Fine Arts and a Masters of Art in Teaching from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. He has also been teaching a course called 'History of Graffiti" at SAIC and he curated a Chicago group graffiti/street art exhibit at the National Museum of Mexican Art this past June.
