In the past three or four years, Detroit has become a spraycation
spot for graffiti artists. Formerly known as the automotive capital
of the world, the media now refers to the Motor City as a bankrupt
ruin a shadow of its former self. Thanks to the city's street
artists, however, Detroit is experiencing an artistic renaissance.
The author has recorded the work produced by these graffiti writers
and documented the evolution of Detroit street art culture in more
than a dozen neighborhoods in and around this resilient Midwest
city between 2008 and 2013. This photographic dossier is the first
book to exclusively feature graffiti from Detroit, where one in
every five structures is vacant, abandoned, or dilapidated. As
industry disappears, the number of vacant walls increases, drawing
the attention of the most talented graffiti artists and writers on
the planet."
