Told as an oral history, this book gathers first-hand accounts from the pioneers of street art, including Banksy, Faile, INVADER, ELK, Mode 2, EINE, Lucie Flynn, CEPT, Sweet Toof, AIKO, James Jessop and many more. The Dragon Bar, tucked away on Old Street, didn’t look like a place that would define an era, but it did. Its graffitied toilets, spontaneous block parties and free-to-use gallery space created the perfect underground laboratory for creativity. Banksy held his first-ever London show here; Faile and Bäst debuted their UK exhibitions; INVADER even placed one of his iconic mosaics outside the bar. What began as a hidden gathering spot quickly became the beating heart of a movement, until it mysteriously burned down, leaving behind stories that demanded to be told. Created and self-published by Josh Jones and James-Lee Duffy, co-founders of the cult art zine Pavement Licker, Dragon Bar Book is a vivid, definitive tribute to the birthplace of modern street art and the community that changed visual culture forever.
