Graffiti4Hire is a Birmingham-based commercial and trademarked collective of graffiti artists paid to envision and complete graffiti for hire projects. The artists are typically hired either by a public commission or by private individuals or businesses to create bespoke visual art pieces. The private limited company was incorporated in August 2009. According to the company’s website, clients include major brands like Nokia and Red Bull. Installations and projects Some of the more notable installations where Graffiti4Hire's work has been employed include the taxi cab version of the Mandela Way T-34 Tank in London, the UK-to-Mongolia Drive for Peace Land Rover utilized by the Actionwork charity, and a unique graffiti wall unveiled in July 2010 at the Nuneaton Town Football Club home arena. Several noteworthy publications have featured graffiti art designed and implemented by Graffiti4Hire. In August 2010, the Virgin Media V Festival, covered by the Daily Mirror, positioned celebrities like Billie Piper, Alfie Allen, Rupert Grint, and Jameela Jamil each posing in front of a customized backdrop “thanks to Graffiti4Hire”. Additionally, in the Summer 2010 issue of The Knot magazine, Graffiti4Hire is credited with a custom wedding announcement featured as a trend in the Notebook section of the publication.
