Asphalt renaissance : the pavement art and 3-D illusions of Kurt Wenner  Cover Image Book Book

Asphalt renaissance : the pavement art and 3-D illusions of Kurt Wenner / Kurt Wenner.

Wenner, Kurt. (Author).

Summary:

This work recounts the re-imagining of street painting by innovative artist and Internet sensation Kurt Wenner. Wenner revolutionized this ancient art by creating a technique that produces astounding images in 3-D--images that reach out of the pavement toward the viewer and appear perilously deep. Featuring photographs of hundreds of his paintings, this volume spans Wenner's career and captures his thoughts on art and the ephemeral nature of his work.
