Summary:

Graffiti and street have been at the heart of many groundbreaking visual subcultures for the past thirty years. However, there is now emerging a new wave of artists who are moving in fresh directions beyond graffiti and street art. Frustrated by wholesale corporate theft of street creativity, these artists are employing different techniques in their work, different materials, different means of dissemination and different ways of getting their work noticed. Often using new materials-fly-tipped rubbish, street signs, children's toys, chalk, vinyl, perspex - these artists are subverting the three-dimensional streetscape to shock, educate and entertain.
