much agreed. besides the cattle bombing i respect his work. i guess i dislike the slew of stencil street artists that he spawned more than the guys actual stuff. for what does he definitely does it well. the aspect of him that i find questionable is his quote about not be able to paint trains fast enough lead him to take up stencils. i take that as he didnt have the patience to put in the time it takes to get better. but whatever just my 2cents

Street Art From Five Continents.

 

From the author of the enourmously successful Graffiti World comes this spectacular follow-up celebrating the contributions of women to contemporary graffiti and street art.

 

Female writers have always been in the forefront of the graffiti movement, though

often shunted to the sidelines by their male counterparts. This exhaustive volume

places them front and center, featuring 1,000 full-color illustrations from some of

the world's most prominent artists, including Brazil's Nina, Japan's Sasu, Mexico's Peste,

and the Americans Lady Pink, Swoon, and Miss 17. Two eight-page fold-out collages,

a fold-out poster jacket, and an authoritative text round out the impressive package.

The first and only comprehensive survey of its kind, this book is sure to attract and

expand upon the wide and enthusiastic readership that made Graffiti World such a

runaway success.

PUBLIC WALL WRITING IN PHILADELPHIA

+++

NEW BOOK CAPTURES PHILLY GRAFFITI THROUGH 1960s, 70s, 80s

+++

FORGOTTEN CITYSCAPE OF ROCKY & RIZZO REMEMBERED ON FILM

 

PUBLIC WALL WRITING IN PHILADELPHIA is a book of photographs

chronicling the history of wall writing in Philadelphia from the late

1960's through the early 1980's. Images of SEPTA stations and

platforms, gang corners and roll calls, anti-graffiti propaganda and

buff-men, run-down neighborhoods and the citizens that inhabited them

serve to paint a bleak yet timeless portrait of Philadelphia.

 

The phenomenon of wall writing permeates all the photos: Graffiti in

the 11th Street Concourse as dense as overgrown weeds; an image of a

young man writing "Tom loves Kate" on a granite wall, a reminder that

writers are not all "hoodlums" bent on destruction. Many seek to

communicate. Public Wall Writing in Philadelphia will be well received

by graffiti aficionados, historians, and anyone interested in the

history of everyday urban life.

 

Public Wall Writing in Philadelphia is published by Megawords Magazine

and Free News Projects. 96 pages, black and white, two-color perfect

bound softcover, 9.5 x 13.5 inches plus 18 x 24 inch two-color poster.

Limited Edition of 1,000. Check out http://www.megawordsmagazine.com and

http://www.freenewsprojects.com for more.
