Street Art Book by RomanyWG, by romanywg on May 21, 2010 14:14:45 GMT 1, I am currently working on a book of all my very best street art pictures from the last few years and would love to get some quotes from the Banksy info members and especially the artists. Anything from a sentence upwards works. Basically, what makes you get up and why.
In this context we're talking strictly about what is special by working in the streets as opposed to a gallery. Why do you paint? Why on the streets? Whats the process? What does the streets mean to you?
Please take it as an opportunity to say your piece. Don't feel limited by anything, in short we're trying to capture the essence of why it's the purest artform there is.
Don't hold back, feel free to hit those keys now and shoot from the hip. If it makes it easier a single sentence will do.
Non artists, please just say in a few words why and what it is about Street Art that you like.
Either send me a PM or if you're not shy post it on here.
Thank for your time and look forward to hearing your views.

but looking forward to it, always love your pictures, had a lot of them on my external hard drive, that crashed

Street Art Book by RomanyWG, by dynamixx on May 21, 2010 20:07:52 GMT 1, Best of luck with this, long since admired your photos.
Not sure of your level of editorial control, but maybe go slightly easy on the text side of things & let the photos mainly do the talking? What do I know etc but often times street art words risk banality

That is nice to know. May most of you climb up the art chain and be in position of power to affect change in years to come.

Street Art Book by RomanyWG, by Coach on May 21, 2010 22:09:56 GMT 1, Delighted to know you are making a book RWG. I, and I guess others, have said in the past that you should do so, as your photo's are always a cut above (by no small measure) any other street art photos I have ever seen.
Look forward to seeing this.
Cheers

Street Art Book by RomanyWG, by buffin on May 24, 2010 11:17:01 GMT 1, Good luck with the book. Love the short film of an hour in the life of a Banksy. Said a lot more about the appeal of the man than many weighty tomes on the subject. Also the skyline photograph of the roller zorro sticks in my mind as something special.
