Urban Culture from Five Continents

Street World , a book of full-color photos, uniquely captures the phenomenon of urban art & culture from five continents. Whether it’s New York, Los Angeles, a Brazilian mega-city or a South African township, authors Roger Gastman, Caleb Neelon and Anthony Smyrski have richly highlighted these cultural hotspots from around the world. 380 pages in length, this publication is a time capsule for a raw art-form that will be appreciated for many years to come.

A Challenge from Tyler Brule

Monocle magazine terrifically covers international affairs, business, culture and design. With a careful eye for detail, the journalistic temperament is sophisticated and knowledgeable while still being inclusive and diverse. This is not a magazine. It’s a book that you get monthly.
