For fifty years, graffiti and street art have been challenging
conventions and stimulating debate around our perceptions of what
constitutes art. As the genre enters its sixth decade, this
ground-breaking book presents a new interpretation of where street
art and graffiti are situated today. Introducing the concept of
'Intermural Art' - art in between the walls - Rafael Schacter
presents a genre at a key moment of transition. While many street
and graffiti artists are still challenging the orthodoxies of the
public sphere, an increasingly large group are reshaping the field
by no longer furtively entering the institution, no longer
slavishly reproducing exterior works inside, but instead attempting
to merge out and in to create a form that articulates graffiti,
street and contemporary-art influences. Through forty profiles of
the leading proponents of this new approach from around the globe,
Rafael Schacter presents a compelling analysis for 'Intermural Art'
while also showcasing some of the boldest work being made
currently.
