Invader
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
New Mosaics of Ravenna is Invader’s seventh invasion guide, telling the story of two waves of “invasions” the artist carried out in Ravenna, Italy. Renowned for its Byzantine mosaic heritage, Ravenna provides a fitting backdrop for Invader’s tile art.
This full-color guide highlights about 40 mosaic installations Invader placed around the historic city, linking the ancient mosaic tradition with Invader’s modern pixelated street art
