Scala Mercalli: The Creative Earthquake of Italian Street Art

This title provides a visual record of Italian street art. The Scala Mercalli project was a seminal exhibition dedicated to Italian street art held in Rome's most prestigious art space, Auditorium Parco della Musica, in summer 2008. This comprehensive record of the exhibition is now the definitive in-print guide to the Italian street art scene and will be of interest to anyone at the cutting edge of urban art and the like. The strength of the Scala Mercalli was the display of creativity originating from new and undiscovered artists and the spontaneity of their work. This volume is an important snapshot in time of that body of work. It includes: CD - Scala Mercali Sound, the soundtrack of the exhibition, and rhythmic sounds of the city; and DVD - Delicious Art and a visual record of the exhibition which is fresh, daring, ironic, adventurous, funny.
