G R A F F I T I M U R A L S FROM ITALY

PHOTO IMAGES OF STREET ART

By FAUSTO PAULUZZI faustop

Icon_comments Comments

156 pages This book collects images from Italian walls that I have been photographing since 2005. The images are an "idealized" documentation of Italy's street art only because I have edited them, to look as they might have looked on the first day they were painted as murals. They involve mostly the personal "tags" (names) of individual artists. They show a raw power of presentation and brilliance of color in works that are otherwise anonymous and destined to either decompose or be covered up by other muralists very soon.
