Silo Art will take you on a picturesque journey from epic painted silos to grand murals that transform towns and outdoor art festivals.

In this richly illustrated coffee table book, award-winning author, and respected artist in his own right, Alasdair McGregor explores the creative and community forces driving this grass roots art movement. He visits the small towns where dreams of joining the burgeoning Silo Art Trail have united rural communities in efforts to transform their faded agricultural heritage into grand visions that instil pride and bring the tourists in. He meets some of the characters at the heart of the rural art movement and delves into the stories behind the faces in the paintings. He profiles the artists, many of whom began as graffitists, but who are now in demand around the world for their jaw dropping ability to transform massive surfaces with paint, often in record time.

This second edition includes a new chapter that follows six Silo Art Trails so you can carry it on your trip with you or experience it all through the pages of this book.
