Creativity and skateboarding are intrinsically linked as skateboarders continue to reinterpret their urban environment. Since a graphic was first hand drawn onto a board, the culture of skateboarding has been a visually artistic one. Following on from Concrete to Canvas: Skateboarders’ Art, this book features all new artists, providing a fresh window to what is essentially a subculture within a subculture. It reveals the huge talent and diversity in genres and style that makes it impossible to pigeon hole skateboarder artists or their artwork. Skateboarder artists are inspired by their boarding passion but their art is not defined by it. The featured artists are draw from around the globe, and their work includes examples of fine art, illustration, graphic design, street art, paintings, doodles; performance and installation. Concrete 2 Canvas : More Skateboarder’s Art is a must have for the wider art and design audience of graffiti and street artists, illustrators and graphic designers.
