Product Description
Product Description
Off the street and into the gallery this exciting book sureys the past ten years of Australian street art. Playful, edgy, clever, satirical and political, street art has significantly altered Australian visual culture over the past decade and has heralded the arrival of a new generation of contemporary artists. Space Invaders engages with these developments and the radically differing aesthetic offshoots of street art, from stencils and free-style works to paste-ups, stickers and zines. Featuring 150 works by over 40 Australian artists, it celebrates the energy of street-based creativity, while also exploring the legal and commercial issues particular to street art in Australia, and is the first book to explore the strategies artists have used to divide their practice between the street and the gallery. While numerous approaches and diverse creative philosophies make up the Australian street art scene in 2010, the true and central constant has been the do-it-yourself ethos. Space Invaders takes a close look at street art and the many ways that artists are getting up, getting out there and getting seen.
