Product Description

Graphotism

'A really good document of Blek's key stencil works; the quality of photos are excellent'


Product Description

This book is a unique view inside the life and work of one of the most private, but also one of the most loved, most applauded and most influential figures in street art. From small and simple stencils to complex multimedia events, the distinctive and groundbreaking art of Blek le Rat is showcased here for the first time, demonstrating the fascinating development of his technique and creativity over two decades. This book, with its indepth personal exploration of Blekâs motives and working methods, and his own comments on the meaning of his art, also offers a taste of the evolution of urban art from NewYork, Paris, Barcelona and Buenos Aires, to London, Taipei, Naples and Berlin. It will inspire and inform enthusiasts of street and urban culture and students alike.

5.0 out of 5 stars pure inspiration, 24 Aug 2009
By Elda Bernardes "El." - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
this book is absolutely awesome. comes to show how un-original all the new artists really are, they just reinvent stuff that have been done decades ago, not that there's anything wrong with that. But anyway, it's good to show where it all started and is pure inspiration to new artists, would definately recommend it

4.0 out of 5 stars Covers most of Blek le Rat's work, 14 Nov 2009
If you want to learn more about Street art roots and Blek le Rat - the main influence of BANKSY, then buy this book. It covers a lot of little stories on his street art, which is, however, a bit more "plain" and artistic, rather then with a sarcastic/funny political message, such as Banksy. Meeting Blek-le-Rat at various occasions in London and New York I have to say he's a very nice guy and definitively very down-to-earth. Regardless he's been in the world's top-galleries for years and years...
