WHITEBOOK 01 – IT'S A CIRCLE by Mark Grokenberger

New York City is the birthplace of graffiti—and especially of train writing. Since the mid-1980s, writers from all over the world have been making pilgrimages to this mecca, and many of them have attempted to paint the legendary subway—just as their role models have done since the 1970s. The first volume of the WHITEBOOK series IT'S A CIRCLE documents several trips to the Big Apple by German writer and photographer Mark Grokenberger between 2019 and 2024.
"Mark Grokenberger's original intention was simply to explore New York City, following in the footsteps of graffiti legends like LEE, DONDI, and SEEN. He wanted to experience the olfactory atmosphere of the venerable tunnels, create a piece in places where numerous milestones were created—and capture a touch of the old New York, which has largely disappeared today."
— René Kästner

The 224-page hardcover volume chronologically tells the story of writer friends who initially just want to check off the subway for a moment – ​​only to discover that the city has much more to offer for ambitious train writers. With each trip to NYC, their adventures become more professional – ultimately leading to well-thought-out end-to-ends, colorful wholecars, and even entire wholetrains. Their experiences are divided into six chapters and are accompanied by reflective texts and stories about selected adventures.

"It's more craftsmanship than graffiti art, but that's exactly what we wanted to be our trademark. Megalomaniac kids from Europe reaching for the stars in the USA. Simple, but true. [...] Painting so many large pieces was never our plan—rather, it's the result of a growing affection for the city and its subway system."
IT'S A CIRCLE is a five-year journey with impressive photographs—not only of tunnel action, yards, in traffic, and from a drone, but also of authentic New York in atmospheric street and subway photographs. Participating artists include SEKO, BQEM, YUSUF, TUKI, IRAK, EYSIR, ORG, IOC, MOPS, and many more.

"But sometimes things demand to be seen. Sometimes I have to go out and share. This is one of those moments. These are the memories, snippets, and stories of some of my best adventures – shared with incredible friends."
The first volume in the WHITEBOOK series opens with a foreword by series founder René Kästner. It is available as a signed limited edition of 250 copies, including two prints and a postcard, and as a regular edition consisting of the book alone.

Whole Car Poetry is a very special project, or rather, let's say that it is undoubtedly a unique work of its kind. It tells (through images) the unbridled passion for wholecars of a writer very well known in the Italian scene of graffiti on trains, Hepo.

The title of the book makes one think of poetry but perhaps it would be more representative to imagine these texts as a rap text without music, given the themes, the words and the world to which these lines are addressed. At a first glance this parallelism might seem far-fetched but it is instead of fundamental importance to be able to enjoy the writer in question. Among the writers that accompany Hepo in some of the photos of the many wholecar and wholetrain published we find Ciak, Humen, Hekto and others. The photos, needless to say, are really beautiful. From the texts you can recognise an uncommon talent.

Intro signed by Trota and Danno of Colle der Fomento. A beautiful book at a very honest price. Recommended!

The power, glory, diversity, and talent of women street artists finally gets the attention it deserves in the first book to focus solely on the female gaze writ large on urban walls and sidewalks across five continents If street art is, in itself, an act of rebellion, it is tragically ironic that the genre seems dominated by men.

This exciting book is an important first step in shedding light on the substantial number of women who are gaining fame in the street art world. It brings together the work of 24 artists, through dazzling photographs of their work and intimate portraits of their lives based on interviews collected by award-winning journalist Alessandra Mattanza.

On walls, sidewalks, prison cells, grain silos and other nontraditional canvases, these artists tackle ideas around empowerment, feminism, the pink revolution, body shaming and body imagery, racism, and the climate crisis.

From Oklahoma City and Brooklyn, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh makes site specific work that considers how people experience race and gender within their surrounding environments.

South African multidisciplinary artist Faith XLVII imbues her narratives with a longing for a deeper connection to nature, and a resurrection of the divine feminine.

Italy's Camilla Falsini incorporates joyful, bold colours and simple shapes to deliver serious messages about the environment.

Shamsia Hassani, one of Afghanistan's first female street artists, makes vibrant murals and paintings in which women play musical instruments as a vehicle for self-expression.

Bursting with colourful photographs of works in situ as well as in detail, this thrilling and incisive book proves that street art is not only female - it's the essence of conceptual rebellion itself.

Author Alessandra Mattanza is a foreign correspondent, contributor, and editor for several publishers in Italy and Germany. Her previous books are Street Art: Famous Artists Talk About Their Vision and Banksy. Stephanie Utz is founder of the Munich based Museum of Urban and Contemporary Art (MUCA).
