5.0 out of 5 stars Come on lads! Give them a chance..........., 11 Feb 2007
By 
This review is from: Graffiti Woman: Graffiti and Street Art from Five Continents (Street Graphics / Street Art) (Hardcover)
It would seem that the struggle for equality between the sexes extends beyond the boardroom and onto urban walls. The male graffiti artist's quote on the frontispiece is both sexist and disparaging. What follows, however, is a wide range of different graffiti styles: some horribly "cute", others depicting women in a rather stereotyped way, some challenging the way women are viewed, while others are brilliantly drawn and beautifully executed. Included are statements from the women artists themselves. For me, this was a welcome extension to the book. It was fascinating to read how some have struggled to compete in, what was hitherto regarded as, a wholly male preserve; others discuss what they are attempting to portray in their work.

It's a fascinating book. Nicely put together and well illustrated.An absolute MUST for anyone who considers themselves to be a graffiti fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 26 Dec 2010
This review is from: Graffiti Woman: Graffiti and Street Art from Five Continents (Street Graphics / Street Art) (Hardcover)
Great book split into two sections, 'graffiti' and 'street art'. I love the fact that each artist's work is put into context, locations given, and sometimes commentary from the artists themselves at the bottom of the page. Lovely christmas present and very inspiring.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not Just for the Ladies, 14 Jun 2010
This review is from: Graffiti Woman: Graffiti and Street Art from Five Continents (Street Graphics / Street Art) (Hardcover)
As a female interested in street art I have taken many books on the subject out of my local libraries, but this was the one I had to buy for myself. It will be of interest to anyone interested in Graffiti, stickers, stencils; some of the many artists' work featured could be by male or female and is just interesting and good. However the feminine does come out in the work of some artists, and if you are trying to find your own artistic identity could be useful in helping consider what is relevant to you, by widening the range of visible points of reference.
