AT DOWN - URBAN DESIGN 2006
Today's graffiti is polymorphous, innovative, and strongly forward-looking. During the thirty last years the discipline has mutated and tryed out many new ideas. Lots of artists worldwide are developing many styles with more pertinence each day. At Down 06 takes us from New York, trough Paris, Barcelona, Lisboa, London, Warsaw, then to Zagreb. An open door to the travel, trough the eyes and practice of Vania a post-graffiti artist.
The photographs describe some pictures related to the Graffiti world. The author has given a special interest in the places and realisations of this discipline. His acute observation and enthusiasm have led him to travel everywhere in Europe, and also to New York. This book, like a record book, describes those different places in different countries. Trough more than 150 pages, the reader gets an Interail ticket allowing to visit the train stations, subway, rail depots trough some major cities. The book also presents some industrial wastelands, remains of the XXth century, and the works from worldwide renowned artists.
Four basic themes run throughout the book:
GRAFFITI ART : Works of renowned artists distinguished by their uniqueness
TRAINS YARDS : Photos of rail depots
URBAN LIFE : Photos of urban landscapes
TUNNELS : Photos of subway tunnels
GRAFFITI COLORING BOOK
In The Graffiti Coloring Book, sixty of Scandinavia’s best graffiti writers have provided the outlines. You choose the colors. The graffiti sketch can be used as a pattern for a graffiti piece, but is equally a work of art in its own right. The book features drawings by legends such as Skil, Kaos, Pike, Egs and Bates. The Graffiti Coloring Book is as fun for all. Get out your crayons and walk the path of the kings of graffiti.
