Street Art Contexte(s) 2
Olivier Landes
Description:
From San Francisco to Melbourne, from Naples to Tehran, this new opus of Street art context (s) unveils a global selection of 130 works by a hundred contemporary urban artists who maintain multiple and fertile relationships with their environment. Depending on the process, the book explores how these artists play with architecture, adhere to a landscape, marry the texture or the color of a wall …
But the environment is not only considered from a physical point of view, the term also refers to the political and societal context in which these works are born. Ecological and economic concerns, violence, pandemics, migrations … thus inspire work committed to undeniable visual force.
