Monumental Graffiti Tracing Public Art and Resistance in the City

What graffiti says about contemporary society, and why it demands our urgent attention as a form of civic expression. What is graffiti--vandalism, ornament, art? What if, rather than any of those things, we thought of graffiti as a monument? How would that change our understanding of graffiti, and, in turn, our understanding of monument? In Richly illustrated, this study of graffiti as monument and monument as graffiti is as fascinating as it is ethnographically expansive.
