Description
Detroit Graffiti showcases over 500 photographs from across a dozen neighborhoods in and around Detroit, capturing the city's vibrant street art culture. Since its decline as an automotive hub, Detroit has become a hotspot for graffiti artists, transforming vacant buildings into vibrant works of art.
Author Chris Freitag, a lifelong resident of the city, documented the evolution of Detroit street art between 2008 and 2013, providing a unique insight into the city's artistic renaissance. This photographic dossier is the first book to exclusively feature graffiti from Detroit, where urban decay has given rise to some of the world's most talented graffiti artists.
