Vuojolainen, The Pocket Handbook for Helsinki Street Art

This handbook presents commissioned and uncommissioned street art in and from Helsinki. Helsinki is currently one of the few cities in Northern Europe with such a lively and eclectic menu of street art on its concrete and streets, and this beautiful form of art is constantly in transition. Street art does more than just offer outdoor entertainment; it frames the urban space and everyday with art. Vuojolainen interrogates whether street art and graffiti subculture offers alternative solutions to survive in urban jungles. The Pocket Handbook for Helsinki Street Art includes over 110 images. Os Gemeos (~¨), Thierry Noir, EGS, Ai Weiwei, Cindy Sherman, FOSKOR1, ChemiS, Miina Äkkijyrkkä, Edward von Lõngus, Breeze Yoko, Viv Magia, Hombre, Tasso, Georgia Laurie, Otto Maja, Poppamaija, Plan B, Li-Hill, Hellstrom are just some of the major practitioners whose works are illustrated in this volume. This handbook will be of great interest to researchers (GSAR), libraries, art galleries and museums. This volume is also easy accessible to community policy makers, urban planners, art historians, members of the news media and first of all to all ethnologists, street artists, street photographers and graffiti writers. Works perfectly also as a tourist guide to the Helsinki Street Art Scene.
