As Seen on the Streets of London: A Street Art Travel Guide is a vibrant exploration of London’s street art scene, combining travel guide insights with fine art photography. Created by an independent, self-published project, the book brings together the voices of 11 London-based street artists, sharing their personal perspectives on the neighborhoods they live and work in, the spots that inspire them, and their connection to the city’s urban canvas. Shorter contributions from additional artists add depth, creating a rich mosaic of perspectives.
Alongside these narratives, the book includes a historical introduction to London’s graffiti and street art movement, practical recommendations for murals, cultural hangouts, hidden gems, and a detailed Google map to navigate the city. Nearly 300 pages of fine art photography by Paolo Giannotti capture both monumental murals and fleeting details, turning London’s walls into portraits of the city itself.
This edition is published in a portable A5 paperback format, printed on lighter paper, making it easy to carry while exploring the city. It’s perfect for anyone who wants to experience London’s street art both visually and contextually.
