The Grudger, the tagger, the council graffiti team - the writer - they all make street art come and go and in passing slip through the grip of 'serious' art critics and collectors who should know better. And then sometimes a piece survives for months, even years, like the gorgeous girl by Eelus in Little Bishop Street. Seeing her again was like finding a fiver in a little-worn jacket. But survivors aside, Bristol street art is a fast-moving tableau: inventive, burlesque, sardonic, peculiar, complex, puzzling an simple - a carefully drafted facade and a simple intervention, a stencil and a sticker. From walls in flux this second book of Bristol street art captures recent work (and a few old pieces) by amongst others: Voyder. Nick Walker, Boswell, Alias, Eelus, Filthy Kuker, Sweet Toof, 3Dom, Sepr, Epok, Cheo, FLX, Dones, Kaione, Tarqs, 3rd Eye. Rowdy, Butt Monster and Banksy.
