Blek Le Rat's 30th year as a street artist--working in a genre that is rapidly becoming one of the most important movements in art history--is now the subject of a new retrospective book, documentary film, and the release of 25 new works by the artist in an anniversary exhibition title 60/30 at USA's 941 Geary Gallery.
