A. Tarantino brought us the the Seattle Street Art Books, and now he is focusing his efforts on Portland, Oregon. Let’s help make this project a reality on Kickstarter! The Portland Oregon Street Art Graffiti Book, coming this Summer, will contain over 100 original color photos taken in 2013. There are some good perks too. Pledging $5 gets you a digital copy. $25 gets you a copy of the book (simply a presale, that supports the printing). $50 gets you 2 books, and a packet of stickers from Portland Street Artists. Pretty cool. Here’s an excerpt from the draft introduction:
While traveling in the Northwestern United States, I explored the neighborhoods of Portland, Oregon. This book contains over 100 of my original street art and graffiti photographs taken within city limits. It is a creative effort to help preserve the temporary visual artwork on the streets. You will see that these are not commercial enterprises or vandalism graffiti, but individual creative statements.
Update: Portland Street Art Book is now available on Amazon.
