About
In this book, the author introduces various types of graffiti seen in Paris as street art, including the traditional French style of die-cut graffiti called "poshoire," through photographs and text. The photographs in this book were taken by the author whenever he visited Paris, and date back to the 1970s. Some are by well-known contemporary artists who were unknown at the time. The book explains not only the history of graffiti in Paris, but also the message of graffiti and its background.
