Fine Art from the Streets - Part 1: New Artists

I recently checked out from the library (thank you interlibrary loan) a copy of Maximiliano Ruiz's Walls & Frames: Fine Art from the Streets. It features a collection of works from street artists who have successfully made the transition from street to gallery. It also includes gallery artists who use a graffiti aesthetic and whose works are clearly influenced by the street. While I had heard of many of the artists previously such as JR, Conor Harrington, Gaia, Herakut, C215, El Mac, Paul Insect, Evol, Eine, and others, there were many more that I was introduced to for the first time. To me here are the ones that stood out.
