Graffito Books

Hello Graffito!

Hello graffito community! Let me introduce myself. I'm Glenn, and I have an addiction: taking pictures of street art.

I'm really glad to be part of Graffito's family and will be posting on a regular basis about things I see and images I take. I'm also really excited about Graffito's upcoming release: "Street Artists: The Complete Guide" which features a large set of my images. I hope to expand on those images with further insights ans other bits.

My space on flickr is a bit behind on updates... I'm about 15 months behind on what I've taken and what I've posted. I'll be working on it in the coming months to add new street art images I've taken in Toronto, Miami, London, Tokyo, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.

Blog brothers

It's nice to make your friends happy.

So we're gleeful about the positive comments made about our Protest T-Shirts book on our contributors' blogs.

First our pal Jovi at Soy Clothing mentioned us on his blog and seemed as pleased as punch at our mention in Nylon. 

Check his post out by clicking here...

And see Soy Clothing's spread in the Protest T-Shirts book below.

 

Spraygraphic also seem pleased with our book, check out what they say about us on their blog here...

And check out one of their brilliant designs below. 

It was featured in our book and is inspired by George Orwell, Michel Foucault and Jeremy Bentham. Smart fellas.

2SICKBASTARDS also featured us on their blog a while ago. Find out what they had to say here...

They're launching a new line of T-shirts soon so keep checking their site for updates.

And check out their spread in our book below.

We're hoping to feature all of these guys more in depth very soon with interviews, images and their plans for the future.

You can check out more of our wonderful contributors and their interesting, powerful designs in our Protest T-Shirts book.

Wu loves this T-shirt...

What better recommendation is there for a T-shirt than RZA practicing some kung fu while wearing one?

Africa Is The Future weren’t in our first Protest T-Shirts book, but we’re definitely hoping to feature them in a future edition.

Try out your Shaolin moves and pretend you’re a Wu Tang member by getting your version from their collection.

You'll look just like RZA.

Wall of my friends are street artists...

Peno is a street artist we've loved for many years. Just the other day I was honoured in an amazing painting of theirs round the corner from my house. 

At the bottom you can see mine and my boyfriend's name written in white!

Peno works in and around London, here are a few other examples of their painting...

And something a little bit different...

You can check out other pieces of work on this Flickr stream.

There's loads more cutting edge street art featured in this book:

Plus coming soon from Graffito...

Long live the music

Our super trendy friends at Wrongwroks have commemorated the late King of Pop with their great Michael Jackson is not dead T-shirts.

We're assuming the slogan relates to Michael's music living on - rather than some bizarre new conspiracy theory - and what better way to remember him?

Bound to sell out soon, click on the link above to buy.

Wrongwroks are featured in our Protest T-Shirts book.
