Urban Guerrilla ProtestUrban Guerrilla Protest is an absorbing documentation of the media guerrillas who ruled the urban landscape between 1995-2005.
Using an array of methods designed to seize the attention of the public, many activists worldwide have successfully conveyed their revolutionary messages.
"Urban Guerrilla Protest," illustrated cover to cover, addresses many of those methods, the individual messages, and what instigated the protests in the first place.
In "Urban Guerilla Protest," Berlin-based graphic designer Ake Rudolf has compiled and documented an astonishing collection of successful and emotional protest actions from around the world.
The book's design and bilingual English/German layout is an homage to the "Do It Yourself" attitude that epitomizes the work of the typical protester, who questions and fights against corporate supremacy, governmental policies and other affairs of modern society.
Projects by Reverend Billy, the Yes Men, The Institute for Applied Autonomy, The Billboard Liberation Front, The Ruckus Society, Yomango, Surveillance Camera Players and more than 90 other groups and individuals provide illuminating examples from the US, UK, Australia, China, Argentina and other countries of where these messages come from, how they're implemented, how they're received by the public and, in many cases, how they ultimately incite change.
