Street Art and the Environment

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 – among others – Banksy, Bordalo II, Isaac Cordal, John Fekner, Paul Insect, Pejac and Ernest Zacharevic. I have attached a short description below.

he price of the new book is £17.99 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.

Thanks 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.
