This is a book about a specific time in the history of Vancouver’s

street art, 1985, the artists who made it and, unbeknownst to one and

all, the local history that emerges from the images that were created on

walls that no longer exist. It is a book about how street art and local

history combine to create a unique story that is only obvious when you

stop to examine it. 1985 is unique because this was the year before

Vancouver was to change drastically and forever with the advent of Expo

86. Since then Vancouver, once Canada’s quiet, provincial city on the

west coast, has become a modern cosmopolitan, multicultural boom center

with towering glass and steel buildings stretching to the sky, replacing

the sawmills, low-rise buildings and parking lots that once were

plentiful on the landscape. We invited the world, the world came.
