Description:

Over the last 10 years the line between culture and counterculture has turned into a zone, and that zone is graf, shorthand for a subculture that produces graffiti, art, fashion, and design. Scrawl Too: More Dirt is a rich collection, maybe even a sourcebook, of all of these manifestations, marked by strong lines, active forms, architectural presentations, and small but numerous interventions that have coalesced into an entire young urban aesthetic. While the more familiar graf may have been absorbed into commerce to the point that it is unmoving (such as the Obey stencils from New York), the work from Japan and Australia is stunning, and there is more of it here than in the book's predecessor. The images are lush and compelling in themselves, but they are equally significant in their selection. --Juliette Cezzar
