An insider`s selection of the most outstanding graffiti and other street art from the artists themselves Informed by his love of hip hop and graffiti, editor JAKe has compiled a fresh, diverse collection drawn from Rio, Berlin, London, Philadelphia and other street art hotspots. The emphasis is on humour and the artworks venture beyond graffiti to `installations` such as RONZO`s Credit Crunch Monster, cemented in the centre of London`s financial district. JAKe brings an insider`s awareness of context to this collection which comprises both photographs from his personal archives and a selection of the world`s best street art from the artists themselves.
