ROGER GASTMAN

Frente a lo que venía considerándose "cultura oficial", está surgiendo una nueva concepción de la cultura y del arte, que tiene su origen en las calles de las grandes ciudades del mundo. En esta tendencia global se fusionan las creaciones artisticas de las subculturas urbanas, desde graffiti y skateboarding hasta printmaking, moda y musica. En este libro los autores ofrecen un recorrido visual y muy dinamico por el arte underground de los cinco continentes y rinden un merecido homenaje a la "calle", escenario predilecto de la creatividad de las nuevas generaciones.
