The ABCs of Style

October has some real gems waiting for us! First the Contact High Project 
will finally release their beautiful book, I already pre-ordered, now Testify 
Books follows with The ABCs of Style, a Graffiti Alphabet!

Filled with 26 colorful marker drawings contributed by some of graffiti 
art's ultimate style masters, The ABCs of Style is part children's book, 
part adult art primer, tracking the evolution of graffiti letterforms. 
Each letter of the alphabet has been rendered by a different artist, with 
work from renowned writers Blade, Lee, Daze, Fuzz One, Haze, Jester, 
Doc, Ces, Cey, Trike, Part, Reas, Wane, SP, Keo, Queen Andrea and many 
others. 
Their styles range from early Bubble and Stick styles all the way to Wild 
style and beyond. But despite all these previously unseen original works, 
this book is not only for graffiti aficionados and art lovers. Both kids and 
parents can appreciate the book's rhythmic, happy verse that concludes 
with a gentle exhortation to rest. As appropriate on a coffee table as on 
a bunk bed, The ABCs of Style is truly art for everyone.
