4.0 out of 5 stars An Awesome Book
This book is full of pictures of actual Street stencils. While it doesn't give you any information of the pieces, it has plenty to offer. The quality of the photographs is great. It's a good book for any art collector.

I wish there was some background information on these pieces or this art movement. I learned more about it on Amazon than I did from the book.

1.0 out of 5 stars hot mess
What I appreciate most about street art is how a piece interacts with its environment... this book doesn't show any of that.

"Mexico: Stencil" doesn't seem well organized, its got an overwhelming amount of pieces, it looks like someone collected a bunch of pictures, cropped the stencil out and tried to fit as many close ups on one page.

If you're looking to learn technique, then this book is great. But if you want this book because you think of street art as social commentary, than this leaves you wanting more.
