This has been the weirdest time and we're still living through it. It is street artists who, in typically enterprising, brilliant and visceral fashion, have really captured its essence. Whilst 'fine' artists have been self-isolating, street artists have been out, often at risk of arrest, creating the most memorable images on walls across the world – from Los Angeles to London, Paris to Tehran, Vienna to Jordan, Norway to Belarus, Barcelona to Vancouver and many more.
Graffito has captured the best of these works in this stunning book – a testament to the continuing vibrancy of street art and a fascinating record of these crazy times. With commentary by street art specialist Xavier Tapies, a stunning cover by Norwegian master Pøbel, and great production values, this is ESSENTIAL for anyone seriously into street art.
