Portland Street Art Volume Two: A Visual Time Capsule Beyond Graffiti by A. Tarantino
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 15 MB
Overview: Book Introduction: This book contains over 100 original street art and graffiti photographs taken in the City of Portland, Oregon, located in the pacific northwestern United States. Portland is a mid-size city, with 2.3 million residents living in the metropolitan area. It is known for its liberal politics, wet and gloomy weather, eccentric quirkiness, local food movement, DIY economies, craft beer, artisan coffee, strip clubs, skateparks, and bicycle-friendliness. The unofficial, but popular, city slogan ‘Keep Portland Weird’ is found on building walls, T-shirts, car bumpers, and bike frames throughout the city. This document is an effort to help capture and preserve the temporary public expression that appears in the streets of Portland. Like every other major city in the world, people here reclaim and use their public spaces as a communication tool, a venue to express themselves and as a way share their ideas with others. Walking around Portland, you’ll find thousands of legal and illegal public art pieces in the typical street mediums – murals, spray aerosol work, stickers, stencils, wheatpastes, installations, mosaic, reverse graffiti, moss graffiti, guerilla gardening, cuprocking, yarn bombing, and many more.
