Since the 2011 Arab Spring street art has been a vehicle for
political discourse in the Middle East, and has generated much
discussion in both the popular media and academia. Yet, this
conversation has generalised street art and identified it as a
singular form with identical styles and objectives throughout the
region. Street art's purpose is, however, defined by the
socio-cultural circumstances of its production. Middle Eastern
artists thus adopt distinctive methods in creating their individual
work and responding to their individual environments. Here, in this
new book, Sabrina De Turk employs rigorous visual analysis to
explore the diversity of Middle Eastern street art and uses case
studies of countries as varied as Egypt, Tunisia, Lebanon,
Palestine, Bahrain and Oman to illustrate how geographic specifics
impact upon its function and aesthetic. Her book will be of
significant interest to scholars specialising in art from the
Middle East and North Africa and those who bring an
interdisciplinary perspective to Middle East studies.
