City streets abound with billboards, posters, and corporate advertising that almost invite a subversive response ...and increasingly are getting one. Many of today’s graffiti artists have adopted the stencil and spray can, and are using the street as a giant creative forum for their arresting artwork. "The image," says San Diego artist Shepard Fairey, "is integrated with the texture of the street." This book showcases the work of the originators, the innovators, and the new generation who, as UK artist Nylon puts it, are "breathing life into derelict spaces." Stencil graffiti is beginnin

The Border, with its frantic commerce in drugs, human beings, electronic gadgets, money and other economic units, is a lens into the future of the "new world economy." But it’s misunderstood, disparaged, cheated and even sentimentalized by the national media portraying it from its Big Brother perspective. PURO BORDER is a remedy to that bias, creating a collage rooted in the best writing from both sides of the border, plus photographs and grafitti revealing life en la frontera. In the 80s and 90s, with the militarization and fencing of the border, the United States became the prototype of

Transcultural Graffiti reads a range of texts ? prose, poetry, drama ? in several European languages as exemplars of diasporic writing. The book scrutinizes contemporary transcultural literary creation for the manner in which it gives hints about the teaching of literary studies in our postcolonial, globalizing era. Transcultural Graffiti suggest that cultural work, in particular transcultural work, assembles and collates material from various cultures in their moment of meeting. The teaching of such cultural collage in the classroom should equip students with the means to reflect upon and eng
