Graffiti World (Updated Edition): Street Art from Five Continents

I ordered this book as a gift for someone who likes graffiti artwork as a coffee table book to keep around the house. When it came in I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the book. Its a pretty large hardcover book, that just has page after page of international graffiti with snippets about some of the more well known artists and their inspirations for some of their pieces. Really neat book to flip through and read pieces from. Only complaint would be the packaging. A bit of the cover was bent because of how it was packed and upon arriving the fold has created a pretty large crease in the paper cover surrounding the outside of the book. The book itself is great however, so I won't be deducting any stars from my rating.

The pictures are AWESOME! I have looked trough the book more times then I can count, and I never grow tired of it. It is alot of cool pieces from all over the world, and it goes from simple amateur stuff to the most elegant, beautifull and well designed masterpieces. A must have for any graffiti lover. Showed to a few friends of mine who like to draw and they were all impressed like heck! This book truly shows what graffiti can be.

i was a little disappointed when it arrived because they didn't package it in its own plastic bag so the back edge of the cool fold out poster/case wrap got caught on the inside of the box and tore it a little. at least that's what I'm assuming was the case, because when i received it there was a tear, and the book wasn't secured in the box so it was sliding around in a box a little too big for it. tear aside, the book is awesome! its got a heavy hardcover, with a case wrap that actually folds out into a poster :) i didn't know that when i bought it so i was pleasantly surprised.the pages themselves are thick and crisp, and the colors are very vibrant. pictures are a good size and it tells you a little about the artists. the friend i bought this as a gift for actually knows some of these artists so it was nice to be able to give him such a lovely book that had tons of pages to flip though and photos that bring back memories. its a very thick, nice weight book and makes a great conversation piece on a coffee table. i would highly recommend it for a special artist in your life.

This book is awesome. So many different artists are featured, and it's of the few photo collections that really draws people's interest when they're visiting my place. I love how it divides the artists by region so you can compare art styles geographically. Lots of cool blurbs about the different paint crews, as well.

Great book. Amazing pictures and art. Cover came damaged but it was too close to Christmas to return. Had to just tape it and roll with it which was disappointing. That being said that has nothing to do with the actual content of the book which is great.

As a former graffiti artist, I can say this is a great book on the subject. It has very high quality photos of some great pieces and murals from around the world.

Bought this for my artist. The book is beautiful and a must for every coffee table. Look at it every day.

Great book for the price but binding was broken.

Libro con molte immagini di graffiti. L'ho regalato ad un appassionato e l'ha trovato molto bello ed utile. Il prezzo è concorrenziale

This book is visually stunning, inspirational work and presentation. Would recommend to anyone interested in visual arts and global culture.

very happy with book. it's large with a wide selection of fotos and subjects are varied and interesting.

Preso come regalo di Natale per due appassionati di graffiti a giudicare dagli occhi sbalorditi direi che è piaciuto. Molto ben rilegato.

Great conversation piece
