More articles from Axel Thiel coming soon.
Reviewed by Susan for Art Crimes
Probably the best so far reference guide to all kinds of graffiti-related books, magazines, internet resources, and articles etc. Paperback: 42 German Marks or the equivalent. Some of the text is Dutch, but since it's a reference book, that didn't keep me from accessing the information. The references are wide-ranging and reasonably complete.
For books, write to:

Axel Thiel, coordinator of the International Work-Group on Graffiti-Research also has a 20-year graffiti archive that he makes available to researchers and students by appointment, in Kassel Germany. Students are asked only to donate a copy of their finished work to the archive, in exchange. More bibliographies and pointers to information are always needed, so send in those picture postcards today...
The International Work-Group on Graffiti-Research is a private, self-funded venture that we should all be grateful for and support if possible. If you write to Axel, please throw some postage in too if you can, or give a fax number if all you need is info. International Postal Money Orders are a good way to send German Marks if you don't happen to have any. It will save them some cash if you don't make them convert currency and stamps too. For more information about the archive, where to mail materials, or general research questions, Axel Thiel's address is: archive1@aol.com and he has another site at http://users.aol.com/archive1
