by
Annice Jacoby
(Editor),

(Foreword)
Enhance your purchase
With 600 stunning photographs, this comprehensive book showcases more than three decades of street art in San Francisco's legendary Mission District. Beginning in the early 1970s, a provocative street-art movement combining elements of Mexican mural painting, surrealism, pop art, urban punk, eco-warrior, cartoon, and graffiti has flourished in this dynamic, multicultural community.
Rigo, Las Mujeres Muralistas, Gronk, Barry McGee (Twist), R. Crumb, Spain Rodriguez, the Billboard Liberation Front, Swoon, Sam Flores, Neckface, Shepard Fairey, Juana Alicia, Os Gemeos, Reminesce, and Andrew Schoultz are among the many artists who have made the streets of the Mission their public gallery. Essays and commentaries by insiders involved with the movement document the artistic, social, and political forces that have shaped Mission Muralismo.

Street Art-SF captures the energy and the edges of SF's Mission where a critical mass of artists have created a movement of art that memorializes the past while envisioning the future. The book will serve historically as a cultural signpost, a time where our various tribes coalesced into an aesthetic and communal "whole" of dynamic parts.
Spend time with this art book. Open it to any page and you will find a generous two-page spread filled with the imagery and poetry of what has been happening in San Francisco's Mission. I've lived in the Mission for 30 years and worked as an artist here, and yet, Mission Art brought me new insights and appreciations. Buy this book. Give it to friends.

I first saw this book in San Francisco when I also saw a lot of the street art. The book is a wonderful coffee table book for residents and visitors who may not be aware of the wondrous art in this city. Bought it for a daughter who has lived there for 11 years and has never seen the art.

I bought this for my 24 year old son who lived in San Francisco. He loved it! He enjoyed reading about the street art in the city, especially the ones in the Mission District. It was a beautiful, brightly colored book which made a great Christmas gift!
