This richly illustrated volume offers a deep dive into the world of stencil graffiti—Pochoir, as it is known in French. Written by art historian Sybille Metze-Prou and street art expert Bernhard van Treeck, the book traces the origins, techniques, and cultural relevance of this powerful urban art form.
Featuring striking visuals and insightful commentary, Pochoir highlights the work of key figures in the stencil graffiti movement, including Thomas Baumgärtel, famously known as the "Banana Sprayer." A rare and thoughtful exploration of one of graffiti’s most politically charged and visually precise subgenres, this book is a must-have for fans of street art, urban culture, and contemporary visual expression.
