Girls Rock is the debut monograph by French graffiti artist Fafi, first published in 2002 by Le Club. This vibrant 64-page hardback captures the raw energy and charm of Fafi’s early work, centered around her now-iconic “Fafinettes” – cheeky, empowered, and hyper-feminine characters that revolutionized the male-dominated world of street art at the turn of the millennium.
Born in Toulouse, Fafi began painting walls in the mid-1990s and quickly gained international recognition for her playful yet subversive approach to graffiti. With roots in both underground street culture and fashion illustration, her art blends pop aesthetics, manga influences, and bold feminist undertones. Girls Rock is a celebration of this hybrid universe – filled with sketches, murals, and illustrations that helped define a new visual language for urban art.
Now considered a cult classic, the book is a key document of early 2000s street art and a must-have for collectors of graffiti, illustration, and feminist visual culture.
