New book Burn after Reading has just been launched and features the photography of the super talented RomanyWG.
Legal or illegal graffiti. It’s sometimes beautiful, sometimes ugly, but given time it can be breathtaking in it's skill of execution. Mural graffiti, although it may be unfashionable to say so – is impressive at least in part because it's really bloody difficult to do it well. Sadly these murals take too long to create for the illegal stuff to proliferate. So, until the revolution of consciousness when our leaders will simultaneously attain enlightenment and put up or shut up, budding muralists need to find legal walls. Collected here in this new book are a selection of the best.
Burn After Reading, published by CarpetBombingCulture, is the end result
of a unique meeting of styles when high end professional photography
meets cutting edge graffiti. The past 10 years has seen an explosion of
interest in graffiti. RomanyWG, compiler of bestselling photography book
Beauty in Decay, is this time found behind the lens breaking new ground
in bringing to life both the craft and creativity of modern day urban
painters.
The book is available online from Amazon and directly from CarpetBombingCulture.
