Product Description

Synopsis

This title gives voice to an art movement which is often misunderstood. In New York in the 1980s, graffiti moved from the subway trains to large walls, offering an opportunity for greater depth and complexity. Here, the artists themselves discuss this radical means of communication.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic., 22 Jan 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Broken Windows: New York Graffiti (Paperback)

Well done, quite frankly. This book is a great graffiti publication filled with the truth and brilliant work. Other books have been of a high standard but nothgin quite matches this for pure style. Another good feature of the book is the wide amount of female graffiti artists and huge array of different styles.
