Street Beauty is a striking, one-of-a-kind photography book that captures the vibrant and ephemeral world of street art through the lens of acclaimed photographer Hannah Judah, with playful design and curation by ATMA.
At 300 pages, this high-visual-impact volume offers a stunning homage to the transient masterpieces of urban artists worldwide. Judah’s work doesn’t just document the art; it encapsulates the raw, visceral experience of stumbling upon these murals, often fleeting in their existence, and preserves their energy and emotional impact.
The book showcases hundreds of large-scale murals, each brought to life by Judah’s distinctive photographic style. Her artistry elevates the photographs from mere reproductions to powerful interpretations of the works themselves, capturing not only their visual brilliance but also the cultural and emotional layers beneath. Judah’s photography places these creations in context, highlighting the interplay between the artwork and its urban surroundings, and offering readers a rare chance to witness the impermanence of street art immortalized in vivid detail.
The design by ATMA, a veteran street artist with 25 years of experience, complements Judah’s imagery perfectly. His playful yet thoughtful curation provides a narrative thread that enhances the book’s flow, celebrating the artistry while honoring its diverse creators. Together, Judah and ATMA have created a masterpiece that is as much about the documentation of art as it is about elevating the medium of street art photography itself.
The book comes with endorsements from cultural icons like music producer and DJ Norman Cook (Fatboy Slim) and the renowned street artist D*Face, further solidifying its authority in the realm of contemporary urban art.
Whether you are a street art enthusiast, a photographer, or simply someone who appreciates the fusion of creativity and raw urban energy, Street Beauty is a must-have addition to your collection. It is a visual feast and an important cultural artifact that celebrates the fleeting yet enduring power of public art.
The book is scheduled for release on March 18 and is now available for pre-order on Amazon.
