The Street Art Manual is the world's first book to combine practical advice and tactical guidance for creating 11 forms of street art in public space around the world.

Every type of street art is covered, including graffiti, stencilling, subvertising, large scale murals, wheat pasting, urban projections, aerial art, yarn bombing, guerrilla theatre, banner drops and projectiles. Each technique is illustrated with step-by-step drawings and straight forward advice about what you need and how to do it.

Written by award-winning artist, author and agitator Bill Posters, The Street Art Manual covers a diverse range of works by artists and collectives from across five continents, as well as legal information on Freedom of Expression, criminal damage and trespassing.

Arm yourself with the tips and knowledge that no other guide will give you and go out and reclaim the streets in the name of urban creativity.
