Scratching the Surface is a collection of essays commissioned by the Mondriaan Fund on graffiti and street art. This collection of essays explores the various manifestations of graffiti and street art, what they represent, and how they relate to one another. The book examines how a piece can contribute to its environment and how we can appreciate it as artistically distinctive. Other topics include the best ways to exhibit this type of art and the risks and opportunities surrounding the creation of murals. Produced by the Mondriaan Fund, this publication brings together seven essays written by leading researchers and critics from the worlds of graffiti, street art, and visual art. The authors guide readers through their professional and personal experiences, while their contributions lay a foundation for further dialogue on the subject.
