Amsterdam Street Art 2

Product description

Since the 1970s, Amsterdam has played a key role in the rise of graffiti culture. Today, Amsterdam attracts both emerging and established national and international graffiti artists. Street art remains a powerful form of artistic expression. Moreover, graffiti and street art are recognized worldwide as the foundation for various contemporary art movements and continue to influence fashion and design. However, it is an art form with an inherently ephemeral nature, as much street art eventually disappears due to factors such as urban development. Precisely for this reason, works must be captured photographically. Kees Kamper's photographs can be seen as art historical documentation, but also as a source of inspiration for emerging artists and as recognition for established ones. In any case, this is a book that every street art enthusiast will enjoy.
