The first book dedicated entirely to showcasing graffiti in and around Detroit!
A showcase of graffiti art in and around Detroit through over 500 photographs across a dozen neightborhoods
Formerly known as the automotive capital of the world, Detroit has since become somewhat of a “spraycation” spot for graffiti artists. While media has referred to the Motor City as a bankrupt ruin—a shadow of its former self. Thanks to the city''s street artists, however, Detroit is experiencing an artistic renaissance.
In Detroit Graffiti, lifelong resident, author, and artist Chris Freitag has recorded the work produced by these graffiti writers and documented the evolution of Detroit street art culture in more than a dozen neighborhoods in and around this resilient Midwest city between 2008 and 2013.
This photographic dossier is the first book to exclusively feature graffiti from Detroit, where one in every five structures during that timeframe was vacant, abandoned, or dilapidated. As industry disappears, the number of vacant walls increases, drawing the attention of the most talented graffiti artists and writers on the planet.
