Summary

Since its genesis on the east coast of America in the late 1960s, street art has travelled to nearly every corner of the globe, shifting and morphing into highly complex and ornate new styles. Displaying their work within what is effectively the world's largest, most open gallery urban artists unveil their beliefs and imaginations to a public unable to avoid them, challenging conventional ideas about the place of art in everyday life. From Steve Powers (ESPO) in New York to Kid Zoom in Australia, taking in Banksy's London, Paris as seen by Honet and OX, and Os Gemeos in Brazil, 'The World Atlas of Street Art and Graffiti' is the first truly geographical history of the form.
