Before Banksy and Shepard Fairey broke into big movies and art museums, graffiti artists practiced their art in dangerous and highly illegal situations. In The Graffiti Underworld, J.R. Mathews tracks down, interviews and photographs 100 artist outlaws and collects their amazing true-life stories in a limited and numbered edition. As much about each individual graffiti artist's dramas as about their art, The Graffiti Underworld provides a one-of-a-kind testament to this subversive and influential culture.
