Newtown Graffiti
An exploration of outdoor street art in Sydney's Inner West neighborhood of Newtown
Buy the BookSydney's suburb of Newtown and the surrounding neighborhoods of Camperdown, Erskinville, Enmore and St. Peters have consistantly been the undisputed capital of outdoor art. It's a constant moving landscape with graffiti, stencils and posters gracing every available surface, forever being replaced by new works, and even new forms of street art.
I took these photos from about 2005-2007, and so many of these pieces are unlikely to have survived. I was lucky enough to capture one of the few Banky pieces that adorned Sydney's streets before it got buffed and replaced.
The book is ludicrously expensive - a product of early self publishing, but if you go onto the site, Blurb do offer a 30% discount for all first purchases.
