Street Knowledge is the new King Adz’s book published by Harper Collins, which celebrates street art from around the world.  
The book includes contributions from some famous artists and talents from across the world including Banksy, David LaChapelle, Kelsey Brooks, The KLF…
Now, down to the important bit. What’s it like?
  
One Thing I can certainly guarantee anyone buying this book is that with the possible exception of those of you who have read King Adz’s previous work, you’ll have to wait a long time before you see anything quite like Street Knowledge again. You’ll notice how lavish and vibrant both the text and illustrations are, and how comprehensive and off the-wall the book is.
King Adz sees street art purely in terms of its aesthetics and the impact it has on the people who experience it.
So in Street Knowledge you’ll see a variety of art originiating from right across the globe, not only by famous artists but also by smaller local figures.
Street Knowledge will turn you onto stuff that you would never find in weeks of websurfing…..
In terms of design and print standards, the book matches what’s inside. A great cover, with artwork by Hush and a cut out for the title. I have to say the cutout looks great. Inside, you’ll find vivid print and well designed copy, which helps to tell the story behind each artists and it’s unique qualities.
It’s a Bargain for a Great book with more than 300 pages of magic images.
