Graffiti

Ah, but I know nothing. Just a talkative person here.

OK, ok, I know a few things, and have been emotionally affected by a few things. That horse was one image that did affect me when I was barely interested in art at all. It was a couple of decades later that I first started with a beginning drawing lesson.

no argument with either of those...



unless the last one was on my wall, especially if it was a wall I built.



I can see both sides of all that. But if I build the wall I don't want anyone f/king with it.

That doesn't look like anybodys wall.

It looks like an abandoned wall and a random thought.

by the way, that last picture is not a reference to anything. I just thought it was cool looking.

A great statement.

How did I miss this thread? I did a sociology semestral paper on graffiti some 11 years back. Had a boyfriend from Belgium who was in Graffiti youth group - combining the art with social outreach and leftist politics... It was fun. I traversed Vienna, Prague, and Brussels - bridges, underpasses, etc... collecting photographs. Still have them at home somewhere, though not digitalized.

Brussels has a ton of impressive graffiti art, there is one particular highway overpass that's famous for its panels. I got a tour of the city's graffiti - just like other folks go see buildings, museums, parks... these youth group takes you around to see the best graffiti in town. They probably still do that.
