Tristan Manco, perhaps the world’s most influential commentator on street art, showcases the work of 38 truly innovative and inspirational artists who use low-cost, low-tech media and often totally original techniques to produce work that defies categorization and pushes the boundaries of art itself. Many of them repurpose utilitarian or scrap materials, from unglamorous items of domestic waste, found wood and even organic detritus such as skin and nails to recycled toys, books, skateboards, firecrackers and lights. Others show creative approaches to traditional or proven media such as paper, stone, concrete and steel. The ingeniously crafted and thought-provoking results range across a broad spectrum, from intimate paper collages to large public sculptures constructed from discarded wood. Anyone fascinated by the extraordinary creativity currently emerging at the raw edge of contemporary art will find this book compelling reading.
Tristan Manco’s books include Stencil Graffiti; Street Logos; Graffiti Brasil; Street Sketchbook; and Street Sketchbook: Journeys. He has also explored the world of ‘Urban Art’ in titles such as Raw + Material = Art; Big Art, Small Art; and Make Your Mark. Manco leads workshops on street art practices, and is a regular lecturer at schools and colleges as well as being a sought-after consultant and speaker at street art conferences. https://www.tristanmanco.com/lectures
