The world's most compelling love affairs don't end in 'happily ever after'. They end tragically, and by doing so, achieve immortality, reminding us of the fact that even though lovers may die, love itself remains forever. Whether on film, in literature or in real life, there have been many enduring tales of love found and lost. Romeo and Juliet, Sid and Nancy, Heathcliff and Catherine, John and Yoko, Ennis Del Mar and Jack Twist - their names are etched in golden letters in the history of mankind, as their stories reinforce the belief that true love is worth sacrificing everything.

All over the world, trompe l'oeils, anamorphisms, lenticulars, abstract illusions and other 3D techniques have been finding their way to pavements, walls, subways, utility boxes and other public spots.  The materials, subjects and results are as diverse as the artists themselves, but the works of art all have one thing in common: they trick the unsuspecting passer-by into seeing things that aren't there.This book introduces you to some of the most remarkable artists from the past, present and future of 3D street art. Meet their mind boggling oeuvre and their unique vision, witness how their thrilling three-dimensional creations transform ordinary locations into alternative realities and behold the unexpected worlds that lie hidden beneath the surface of everyday street life.
