Antonio Agee

Artist in Residence at Fantelope Company

Antonio “Shades” Agee, a passionate Detroit native and public figure, (now living in Berlin, Germany) was an active participant in the creation of the Detroit graffiti scene as one of the first documented graffiti artists in the city. Growing up in the Motor City, Shades has drawn invaluable influence from his father, a successful jazz musician. Being surrounded by the sounds of legends like Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra shaped his early years, implanting an appreciation for the arts while inspiring further creativity.
