Mural Art : Volume 1
Origin Published in Germany, text in Greek and English

Vigorously aesthetic, overtly political and played out in the urban social space, graffiti is the new mural art. This overdue consideration of the role and significance of graffiti within the art historical canon, presents an impressive roster of artists, including WK Interact, Shepard Fairey, Viagrafic, Mike Giant, and Os Gemeos, to name but a few.

This volume features a variety of approaches from modern mediums such as stencil to the ancient method of fresco. Working on a monumental scale and creating images that are readily accessible to the masses, this is the rejuvenation of muralism, updated for the age of graffiti.

288 pages, full colour, hard cover, 300x220mm


Mural Art : Volume 2
Origin Published in Germany, text in Greek and English

About The brilliant successor to the original and highly successful Mural Art, this second edition further underlines the theory that art is a form of expression that should not be restricted or limited in any way. These remarkable paintings in public places express human feelings such as protest, passion, resistance, tenderness and violence, all of which are connected to our needs for communication and socialization. Author Kiriakos Iosifidis is an active mural painter and publisher of the Greek graffiti magazine Carpe Diem.

Artists featured in Mural Art 2 include Sebastian James, CPAG, Roberto Delgado, ESCIF, PSY, REMED, Stick Up Kids, Macrew, Ken White, XLF Crew, Mr Wany, Gert Neuhaus and many more.

All have worked on a monumental scale and used every imaginable technique to transform lifeless gray facades into bright, meaningful and fascinating works of art.
