Action Painting – Bringing Art to the Trains

Like Banksy’s Wall and Piece opened the door to street art, ACTION PAINTING reveals the hidden world of graffiti on trains. With 216 full-color pages, the book showcases rare photos of works that existed only for hours before being erased – capturing the passion, risk, and artistry behind Europe’s rolling canvases.

From Helsinki to Madrid, this collection spans 25 years of train graffiti, featuring humor, politics, typography, and bold creativity. More than vandalism, it’s a visual dialogue between anonymous artists and the city itself. A must-have for fans of graffiti books, urban art, and street culture.
