Beauty in Decay II carries on where RomanyWG's left off in his previous volume with full-color, panoramic photographs from urban exploration or Urbex locations around the world. Overgrown industrial complexes, disused lunatic asylums, abandoned palaces and forgotten monasteries are showcased, and paired with clear-sighted, poetic text.
Graffiti/Street Art - sometimes beautiful, sometimes ugly, but one thing is certain: they're breathtaking in their skill of execution. Collected here are 256 pages of the best photographed from around the world by RomanyWG.
Unventions tell new stories about the things around you releasing them from the mundane trudge of daily routine to take on epic new roles. When you begin to see them you are set free, and soon you will discover your own.
Focusing on those emerging contemporary artists who are working at the cutting edge of image creativity today. Images featuring portraiture, landscape, digital manipulation, social realism, conceptual art, photorealism and digital photo montage.
Not to be filed under history, photography, design or non-fiction, as it contains outright lies and outrageous subjective opinion, this book is definitely about street art. It is also about now.
Brilliant successor to the first edition, this book about street art has again been created without the collaboration of the artists and certainly without the 'permission' of the wall owners.
Take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints. This is the unspoken rule of urban explorers, who sometimes risk their safety, police records, and even their lives to explore abandoned buildings, sewers and storm drains, transit tunnels, utility tunnels, high-security areas of inhabited buildings.
Not all art craves attention, some of it hides in the secret places. Some of it is buried treasure, out in the urban wilderness, left scattered in empty rooms of derelict buildings like strange markings left by an unknown tribe.
We have previously claimed that Street Art is the most important art movement of our time. It was a deliberately provocative thing to say and we remain unapologetic for it. Is Street Art an extension and evolution of Graff or a corruption of Graff's pure rebel yell into an easy to swallow rebel lifestyle? This is Street Art. Make up your own mind.
For the first time in print a photographer ventures behind the Iron Curtain to sensitively and beautifully document abandonment, lost in time after the collapse of the Soviet Union. From East Germany through Ukraine, Bulgaria, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, Mother Russia to the despair of crumbling Chernobyl.
The single best collection of photographs of Banksy's street work. Period. You Are An Acceptable Level of Threat concentrates on this singular artist's iconic imagery, spanning the late '90s up until the end of 2011.
