COOPER, Martha
Going Postal
NY, Mark Batty, (2008). The photographer who pioneered photographing the art of graffiti, starting in the 1970s, here documents the related phenomenon of mailing label street art -- graffiti tags handwritten or printed on stickers, mailing labels, and other portable formats. Cooper's book Subway Art, done in collaboration with photographer Henry Chalfant and published in 1984, was a landmark in recognizing the artistic dimension of street art and graffiti, and has been reprinted numerous times. Fine in pictorial boards without dust jacket, as issued.
