Street art has continuously been pushing the limits of design for a long time and many of the spectacular pieces are captured in the 'Graffiti World' book. With over 2,000 illustrations from over 150 artists around the world, there is no other book that encapsulates the genre quite like this.
While there are some that view the act as strictly about vandalism, many are starting to see that it's more so about expressing a message through artistic mediums. Many of the most ingenious and imaginative pieces of art are cast on the bricks walls of the world, transforming a building into an emotional work of art. With such a powerful genre of art, it's definitely a worthy cause to amalgamate all of the global pieces into the 'Graffiti World' book.
