DESCRIPTION:
While newspapers and magazines the world over send their critics to review the latest Damien Hirst show at the Tate Modern, Bull is out taking photos of the legendary political artist's work. This collection of provocative and intriguing examples of street art boasts gorgeous color photos and includes graffiti by many of Banksy’s peers, such as Eine, Faile, El Chivo, Arofish, Cept, Space Invader, Blek Le Rat, D*face, and Shepherd Fairey. Volume one of this new edition includes updated locations and an additional 25 photos.. In three guided tours, Martin Bull documents 65 London street installations by guerilla art icon Banksy
A Great Guide From Martin Bull and PM Press Michael K. Hall I purchased both Volumes of this terrific tour guide after reading Banksy's Wall and Piece and watching "Exit Through The Gift Shop" and am not disappointed! Both volumes are filled with great photos and tons of info on the location, history, condition (many of these have been removed since the last visit by the author) and you don't have to go all the way the England to see them! The author seems very humble about all of it, when he could certainly go the other way and come across as self-important. The whole project feels like an excited fan who just wants to share his stuff with you. He doesn't make value judgements about graffiti. "This book holds it all" according to Melissa @ just one opinion. Great book for any banksy fan not only does it show you each of his art works but it also gives you insight into the area of London and buildings around the art. It's like a map, art and guide book in one, I could imagine myself actually walking around London trying to find each of these locations mentioned.. MisfitHeather1was a gift for my daughter and she was happy with it This book was a gift for my daughter and she was happy with it. My only complaint is that it's very small. Not much bigger than a large note card. The pictures are great but the binding makes it difficult to see the entire pictures in some cases (it doesn't lay flat, it's a small book but very thick). But there's a ton of art included and if you're a fan of Banksy this is a good addition to your collection.I don't recommend this particular book for anyone who is newly interested in Banksy's work bevai. 8 said was a gift for my daughter and she was happy with it.
