SAMPLE
註釋
This truly global and visually stunning compendium showcases some of the most breath-taking pieces of street art and graffiti from around the world.
Since its genesis on the East Coast of the United States in the late 1960s,
street art has travelled to nearly every corner of the globe,
morphing into
highly ornate
and
vibrant new styles
.
This unique atlas is the
first truly geographical survey of urban art,
revised and updated in 2023 to include
new voices
, increased
female representation
and cities emerging as street art hubs.
Featuring
specially commissioned works from major graffiti and street art practitioners
, it offers you an insider’s view of the urban landscape
as the artists themselves experience it.
Organized geographically, by continent and by city – from
New York, Los Angeles
and
Montreal
in North America, through
Mexico City
and
Buenos Aires
in Latin America, to
London, Berlin
and
Madrid
in Europe,
Sydney
and
Auckland
in the Pacific, as well as brand new chapters covering
Africa
and
Asia
– it profiles more than 100 of today’s most important artists and features
over 700 astonishing artworks.
This
beautifully illustrated book
, produced with the help of many of the artists it features, dispels the idea of such art as a thoughtless defacement of pristine surfaces, and instead celebrates it as a
contemporary and highly creative inscription upon the skin of the built environment.
