New Street Art Book, by Peter Bengtsen on Jul 10, 2018 11:01:33 GMT 1, Hello all,
I have not been very active on forum lately. I have been busy wrapping up a large research project, which I have been working on since the release of my first book, The Street Art World in 2014.
The result is a richly illustrated book of 117 pages entitled Street Art and the Environment.
The book includes work by โ among others โ Banksy, Bordalo II, Isaac Cordal, John Fekner, Paul Insect, Pejac and Ernest Zacharevic. I have attached a short description below.
The price of the new book is ยฃ17.99 plus shipping. Like with The Street Art World, I am publishing and distributing the book myself. As an independent publisher, your support is greatly appreciated.
If you are interested in purchasing a copy of this new book (or The Street Art World), please send a DM through the forum or visit streetartworld.bigcartel.com. If you want more information about the book, feel free to contact me directly or post in this thread.
Thank you for reading.
Can art change the world?
Issues like climate change and unsustainable natural resource consumption are climbing ever higher on the international political agenda. Scientific reports, media coverage and information campaigns advise the public about these complex matters, including the environmental impact of human activity. It can however be difficult to engage people with facts and figures alone.
This book examines a number of environment-themed artistic interventions. It suggests that street art, partly due to its unauthorised placement in everyday settings, is well-suited to shift attitudes and behaviours. The book also considers how online viewing may affect the experience of artworks and, in turn, their potential to influence people regarding the environment.
Peter Bengtsen is an art historian and sociologist. He has been writing about street art since 2006. His first book, The Street Art World, was published by Almendros de Granada Press in 2014.

New Street Art Book, by yorkie on Jul 13, 2018 15:19:11 GMT 1, Agree with Coach - if its as good as your first book it will be a great read!
Have PM'd you - wishing you much success with the book!
Also - its nice to have a thread like this on a Friday rather than the threads about artists who have come off the rails (or been off the rails for a while) - this is a positive contribution to the world!
Happy Friday!

Thanks mate. There are a lot of artists out who are working to create positive change. This book highlights a few of them. ------------------------------------------------------------- streetartworld.bigcartel.com-------------------------------------------------------------

New Street Art Book, by Peter Bengtsen on Jul 25, 2018 21:11:01 GMT 1, I will be participating in a panel discussion tomorrow before a free screening of Exit Through the Gift Shop.
It would be great to meet members who are in the area (southern parts of Sweden / eastern parts of Denmark).
