STENCIL GRAFFITI CAPITAL: MELBOURNE

Stencil graffiti has found its heart in Melbourne, Australia. No other city boasts such quantity and quality of stencil art.

Through intimate interviews, dynamic layouts and a riot of examples the artists are shown in the context of world street art culture.
Stencil Graffiti Capital: Melbourne is the first book to explore the city's thought provoking, visually rich stencil graffiti scene.

Nearly 500 full colour images document the beauty and breadth of the work produced. Art, interviews and profiles of artists including: Psalm, Phibs, Sixten, Meek, Rone, Prism, Sync, Meggs, Banksy and more make this an essential book for anyone with an interest in street art, design and contemporary popular culture.
