About the book
Street Art captures and explores the works and philosophies of the most prominent street artists of today, often in their own voices, revealing what is behind these familiar images —from the influence of Christo's early public projects to Keith Haring's chalk drawings, John Ahearn's life-sized plaster casts, and Richard Hambleton's shadowy figures, to the 50-foot-long graffiti murals by Lee, Futura 2000, and Noc 167 that have given new life to subway ears. These stunning images —from the most recognizable to the lesser known, but equally compelling— taken by the top photographers who have been documenting this owrk since its early days, are complemented by informative captions and a lively, anecdotal text. Written for both the art enthusiast and the general reader,, Street Art is as accessible as the art it documents.
