内容简介 Urban centres such as Barcelona, Paris and Berlin are places whose landscapes
are characterised by anonymously created artwork and signatures that
are inventing new visual codes. This street art is much more than mere graffiti.
In addition to using spray paint, today s enterprising urban artists use stencils,
wheat paste and found objects to manifest their ideas. They work in an interdisciplinary
way and are often creative nomads travelling and working their way
through cities around the world.
Berlin is a particularly strong magnet for international street artists, inviting them
to leave their mark. But the impressions that they leave are inevitably fleeting
as their art falls victim to the city s unrelenting development. Luckily, editor and
street artist Jürgen Grosse has worked with Michael Bonk for years to track and
archive Berlin s urban art.
Urban Art Photography presents artwork from Berlin that communicates with its
environment in a subversive way. Successfully capturing this interplay, the book
serves as a permanent documentation and time capsule of these constantly
changing images.
The creative process and constant development of the pieces through interventions
by other street artists are vividly depicted in Urban Art Photography. Their
evolution is presented in this large-sized book as authentically as the transience
of an art form that makes the city its canvas.
