As a medium for creative expression, street art has risen to prominence as a means by which to express yourself, while also presenting an idea to the public. Since its initial practices, street art has grown into a social phenomenon as street artists like Mark Jenkins and BLU have achieved incredible fame and notoriety for their work. From the mind of Peter Belsito comes a glimpse into street art from decades past. Capturing street art images from 1977-1982, Belsito paints an accurate portrayal of the street art movement in San Francisco from various points of view. A must for any art or music fan.
