Book Reviews of Subway Art
Book Review: Best of the early graffiti books
Summary: 5 Stars
Not the first NYC subway graffiti book (that was Norman Mailer's 1974 "Faith of Graffiti"), nor the first to contain an article about it (that appears to be Kochman's 1971 "Rappin' And Stylin' Out"), but this is the best of the early books.
It is genre defining.
Great photos, decent explanation of styles and techniques.
The visual companion to the "Style Wars" film.
