going postal

because they are freely accessible in large quantities, postal stickers have long been a preferred substrate used by street artists to get up. with ample time to draw and tag on these stickers in private, artists that use these stickers minimize risk and maximise effect.

martha cooper has been photographing hip-hop and graffiti cultures since the late 1970's, and obssession that began in new york city and has since taken her all over the world. going postal features cooper's favourite handmade postal stickers found during her travels. whether, done by some of the scene's best-known artists, like faust, stain and cosbe, or the anonymous. going postal documents how an old-school method has burgeoned into another rich facet of the world's graffiti cultures.

an inspiring and enriching book.
