Street Art

Anthony Lister.

Some of your favourite street art(ists)? Or some local street art that's around the corner from you that you like?

I think there was a street art thread here once but I couldn't find it (I didn't really look.)

Norma J · 04.20.2010, 10:30 PM

Alexandros Vasmoulakis.

Norma J · 04.20.2010, 10:42 PM

Seen.

Norma J · 04.22.2010, 03:08 AM

Art to Sonic Youth fans = I prefer to talk about what I eat for breakfast and post pics of myself.

And on the first car in small letters it said
'All you see is..' and then you know
big, big, you know some block silver letters
that said '..crime in the city'

Only just got into LA but there was a tag on the freeway about the traffic that I liked. Forgot what it exactly said, though.

Also, Norma J prefers to make a condescending remake about other people.

"I'm really not a fan of sreet art these days. I think in most cases, if not all, graffiti or whatever you want to call it, can ruin a beautiful building and make a city/suburb look degenerative and derelict."
- Norma J , 2008

he he he he he.

I would have been referring to more vandalism than street art (which there is a HUGE difference) with that 2008 comment. Or I may have been being a reactionary twat, perhaps like yourself right now?

Anyway. Don't worry about it.

man calm down, It was all in good fun, next time I'll put a streak of smilies, ok?
here's the old street art thread if you wanna have a look (the quote comes from there), along with another art thread with mention of Vasmoulakis.

i love street art, but there seems to be a dearth of it here in TEXASSS

There are some things, but nothing as spectacular as what you posted normaj

Don't worry, I thought it was fun-poking, too.

My favourite is the wolf man.

Norma J · 04.25.2010, 12:18 AM

Yeah, it is pretty amazing.

There's a cool iPhone app called "All City" that has pics of pieces all over the world with the address incase you want to check it out for yourself. Plus you can up stuff yourself if you have cool stuff in your neighborhood. Pretty cool. If any of you have access to such devices.

space · 04.25.2010, 12:47 AM

it's "All City Art"....and is it worth the purchase price?

I'll buy it, if so.

what I like most about LA is the bravehearted taggers.

it takes serious nuts to paint a freeway sign on the I-5.

when in Rome, do as the Vandals.

ps: I bow to nicfit's eideticism.

Norma J · 04.25.2010, 01:11 AM

It's All City but the website seems to be "All City Art".

I like it. Plus it's only like $2.

space · 04.25.2010, 02:48 AM

yeah, I don't mind the money, it's not much.

just wanted to verify that it works.

I plan to put it to good use this summer.

thanks much for the suggestion!
