Product Description

Fabled as a region that embraces freedom of expression in all of its guises, the San Francisco Bay Area has long been a world-renowned cultural hotbed. Bay Area Graffiti is the first comprehensive retrospective of the area's vibrant contemporary street-art scene. Documented by the distinctive photographic eye of Steve Rotman, his images showcase the innovative art made all over the Bay Area, as well as how it blends into the stunning landscapes. Having befriended so many of the Bay Area's major writers and street artists, Rotman's photographs are accompanied by dozens of intimate artist profiles.

Bay Area Graffiti is for fans of street art and photography the world over!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bay Area Graffiti An Amazing Book, January 29, 2009
By Eliot B. Barron (West Hartford, CT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

What an amazing book! It really captures the Bay Area art scene so
vividly. The colors jump off the pages. I am not a long-time graffiti
fan, but this book caught my eye with a scene I never could have
imagined. The art is complex, fun, serious and whimsical. Great
photography by Rotman and wonderful documentation of art that is not
otherwise archived.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bay Area Graffiti a Work of Art, February 15, 2009
This book is just a work of art!! This book is for both fans of graffiti and photographers. I would recommend this book to anyone even if they hated graffiti with a passion. The only thing is that the font color of the interviews are black on a dark gray background making it hard to read but other than that is an amazing book that made me want to slap my momma.
