Street art

Blinding from the tunnels of the metro and dark lanes into fashionable international art fairs, Street art is today a global artistic movement. Simon Armstrong traces his evolution from the origins in the subculture of the graffiti of Philadelphia and New York of the 1960-1970s to the current heyday.
Among the numerous heroes of the book are the legendary thermers of the first call, kings of the New York graffiti scenes, as well as modern street art stars: Shepard Feyri, Banksy, Invader, Miss Van, Vils and others. Their work is considered in complex relationships with the city, its laws and authorities, as well as with the world of art and the art market.
Having received recognition all over the world, Street art retains its energy that beating over the edge and still challenges our visual habits
