Paperback. Condition: Very Good. City streets shout with billboards, fly posters and corporate advertising. They almost invite a subversive response. and increasingly they are getting one. Many of today's graffiti artists have taken to the stencil and spray-can and are using the streets as a giant creative forum for their arresting artwork. 'The image', says San Diego artist Shepard Fairey, 'is integrated with the texture of the street.' This book showcases the work of the originators, the innovators and the new generation who, as UK artist Nylon puts it, are 'breathing life into derelict spaces'. Stencil graffiti is beginning to filter off the street, too, as artists are inspired to work on canvas, clothing and metal, influencing style magazines and the new media. Tristan Manco has talked to the major players on and off the street, and has chosen over 400 of the most visually exuberant, subtle and creative examples of the genre from cities all over the world. With subject matter ranging from the political to the poetic, and from the funky to the frankly curious, stencil graffiti is graphic innovation on an international scale. Inspirational in form and content, Stencil Graffiti is an essential record for everyone with an interest in contemporary design - and anyone who wants a finger on the global pulse of urban culture. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Drawing on his Russian and Jewish heritage, Marc Chagall created magical works full of poetic symbolism and radiant colour in which the real and the imaginary merge. This book sets out to reveal the timeless beauty of his art. Born in Russia before the Revolution, Chagall travelled as a young man to Paris, where he came into contact with the Cubists, Fauves and surrealists, but he always retained a strongly independent vision. His childlike sense of wonder found expression in painting, engraving, gouache, stage designs, mosaics, tapestries, sculptures and stained-glass windows that captured his home town of Vitebsk, the world of the circus, the great stories of the Bible, the agony of the war years, as well as his dreams, visions, memories and his love for his wife, Bella Rosenfeld.
