The long-awaited first monograph by André Saraiva, known as a visual artist, club founder, and nightlife influencer, has arrived. It showcases his wide range of activities, from street art and contemporary art to graphic design, photography, and his influence on fashion and nightlife.

André Saraiva is a street-cool artist and nightlife impresario who effortlessly navigates between graffiti culture, a glamorous travel lifestyle, and the fashion industry. This book is an autobiographical "visual diary" of his world, allowing readers a glimpse into his multifaceted life. It is an interactive and visually striking object, featuring a vibrant pink or blue cloth binding (randomly inserted), his distinctive handwriting foiled on the cover, and seven pop-ups designed by the artist himself.

Perhaps you’ve walked the streets of Paris, London, New York, or Los Angeles and seen Saraiva’s iconic “Mr. A” graffiti on a wall. Or maybe you saw him in Banksy’s film "Exit Through the Gift Shop," or spotted him in the front row of Paris Fashion Week, or at one of the many chic nightclubs he produced.

"Graffiti Life" is the first comprehensive look at the worlds he effortlessly navigates—street culture, contemporary art, graphic design, photography, fashion, and nightlife. From "Instagrammable" tags drawn on Parisian street corners to countless silkscreen posters, paintings, and sculptures, to creative collaborations with Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Colette, and others, this book traces the trajectory of Saraiva's art and life.
