Berlin Street Art by Sven Zimmermann

Berlin Street Art by Sven Zimmermann

Street art is a phenomenon which exists across the world's urban centres. What was once regarded as a nuisance at best or vandalism at worst, is now increasingly being recognised as an important art form. This book brings together the finest examples of street art in Berlin, a city bursting with artistic energy and expression. Working primarily at night, street artists, some of whom like London's Banksy have achieved cult status, leave their messages on building facades, post-boxes, advertisements, traffic signs and rubbish bins. The author has spent many years capturing the ephemeral street art before it is removed by the authorities. Here he collects the best photographs of the works of the city's pre-eminent street artists.
