Barcelona Street Art - Paperback

Barcelona Street Art is a photo essay about the fascinating street art culture I encountered on my trip to Barcelona, Spain in late 2014. The creative use of street art (graffiti) was inspiring. Shop owners lend their shop doors for street artist to use as canvases. In the old neighbourhood of Barcelona most of the streets are very narrow, and shops are lined up closely, sometimes on both sides of the street. The distinctive graffiti sometimes serve as the best way to navigate these winding little alleys. The graffiti expressed many artistic styles, from realism to abstract. The topics of the graffiti varied widely. Some were political, others were funny or superstitious, and most were stunning and original displays of color and shape.
