Robbie Conal : Streetwise: 35 Years of Politically Charged Guerrilla Art Hardback
by G. James Daichendt
Hardback
- Information
Description
The politically charged art of Robbie Conal is gnarled, gut retching, and emotionally laden.
Featuring every image in Robbie Conal’s storied poster campaigns, this is the definitive history of “America’s foremost street artist” (Washington Post).
A foreword by Shepard Fairey, American contemporary street artist, graphic designer, and activist, sets the scene.
Conal's satirical posters of political figures are given richer context as his life story is insightfully joined with art criticism by expert Daichendt.
Today honored by museums and arts organizations around the world, Conal hit high speed during the Reagan administration in 1986, when he began turning his grotesque portraits into street posters.
We see Conal's life come together at a critical moment to attack issues of censorship, war, social injustice, and the environment.
