Futura: The Artist's Monograph is the most in-depth and comprehensive survey of the life and career of one of the pioneering artists of the original graffiti generation: Futura 2000, alias Leonard Hilton McGurr. He was among the first graffiti artists to be shown in contemporary galleries in the early 1980s, where his paintings shared space with works by Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Kenny Scharf. Collected in this volume, among never-before-published reproductions of earlier paintings and drawings, is an archive of personal photography and ephemera that reveals how integral Futura has been to the evolution of street art and culture. Guided through more than forty years of work, and with interviews with key players in Futura's career, this is at once a definitive monograph of a legend of contemporary art and an indispensable chapter in the history of graffiti. Hardcover, 256 pages, text in English.
