Tools of Criminal Mischief
$25.00 CAD
Roger Gastman has created more books on graffiti culture than anyone. He’s edited and published countless artist monographs and anthologies and even served as Supervising Producer for the film documentary Infamy. For Tools of Criminal Mischief, Mr. Gastman has trawled his personal archive to present the quirky stories and visual oddities that inspire him personally: from the story of infamous Baltimore Graffiti Writer SHAKEN, to 1940s hobo train art, ’70s gang graffiti, photos of graffiti writers’ personal aerosol arsenals, spray paint collectibles and ephemera and more. In the author’s own words – ‘The danger, history, process, spray cans, magic markers, and the local styles are just a few parts of graffiti that I fixate on. Different aspects interest me at different times, but what always continues to excite me is the oddity – especially pedestrian graffiti and the strange pop-culture references.’

Roadsworth-Book (signed)

Paperback, 208 pages
Signed by Roadsworth
By 2004, Roadsworth had pulled off close to 300 pieces of urban art on the streets of Montreal. In the fall, he was charged with 51 counts of public mischief. It seemed to signal the end of his career. Instead the citizens of Montreal and lovers of his work from around the world rallied their support. A year later he was let off with a slap on the wrist.
This is the definitive guide to the work of Montreal street artist Roadsworth. In this playful and sometimes subversive book, featuring more than 450 reproductions of his unmistakable work, Roadsworth takes the urban landscape and turns its constituent elements on their heads, both indicting our culture’s excesses and celebrating what makes us human (lest we forget).
