STREET LOGOS
(Wed 31st/Thur 1st / 8pm / £4)
Street Logos is the new book by Tristan Manco to be published on March 29th.
Graffiti art is constantly changing. Fresh coats of paint and newly
pasted posters appear overnight in cities across the world. Current graffiti art is more reflective of the world around it, its innovators are creating an original language of forms and images infused with contemporary graphic design and illustration. Street Logos is an international celebration of these developments in 21st-century graffiti, an essential sourcebook for all art and design professionals and a delight to everyone excited by the vitality of the street. With 485 illustrations, 463 in colour.
Tristan Manco (Tijuana Design) is also the author of "Stencil Graffiti" - the best selling guide to stencilled graffiti worldwide.

speakers from the book. Artists on each night TBC.
