“Decades after the movement globalized, New York is still the mecca of
graffiti culture. Painting there is a badge of honor, with graffiti
artists from around the globe making pilgrimages to New York for that
purpose. This is the city where it all began, yet few know the back
story. Graffiti New York fills that gap, detailing the concepts,
aesthetics, ideals, and social structures that have served as a
cultural blueprint for graffiti movements across the world. The book
features approximately 1,000 images, complemented by texts by the
authors and relevant players in the movement, as well as descriptive
graphics and sidebars. Ranging from the birth of simple signature tags
to today’s vibrant murals, and covering the ups and downs of the
movement, the culture’s value system, its social framework, the
various forms of graffiti, and significant artists and crews, Graffiti
New York is a major addition to Abrams’ superb books on graffiti art.”
