Five oversized fold-out gatefolds present some of the largest productions painted in NYC since 1996. 254 pages 5 gatefolds Hardcover $39.95
The critics on BROKEN WINDOWS:
Broken Windows documents the Giuliani-era explosion of "productions"?the usually legal, multi-writer pieces that began appearing on store gates, buildings, walls, and train tunnels?and "bombs," the illegal, controversial signatures that seemed to swarm the city. Like Chalfant and Cooper's Subway Art, Broken Windows becomes a salute to the graf-writers' visual genius.
