Invader is an internationally recognized French artist, known for his placement of mosaics inspired by the 1970s computer game Space Invaders.

This book charts just a part of Invader's project - started over a decade ago - which has spread to more than 40 cities around the world, including London, Paris, Berlin, Cologne, Amsterdam, Brussels, Sao Paolo, Mombasa, Bilbao, Los Angeles, Manchester, Istanbul, Vienna, Newcastle, Tokyo, Bangkok and Melbourne

• Exploring the nature of a discreet invasion of the urban landscape, this publication is a fascinating and meticulous documentation of a phenomenon of international proportions

• Extensive photography of mosaics and surrounding areas

• Highlights include several anecdotes about the mosaics by the artist himself as well as other projects that happened in Paris

Invasion in the U.K. covers Invader’s “invasions” across three British cities – London, Manchester, and Newcastle – from 1999 through 2007.

The book maps out each mosaic installation with photographs and city maps, and the first edition (2,000 copies) featured a silkscreened plastic cover with text in both French and English
