Buildings

I know this blog is called "World streets art", but I've just noticed that I have abandoned all the "streets" part lately. So I'll gonna to resume my effort on finding really cool stuff on the streets. Buildings are probably next :-)

Stone Art

Very cool graffiti on stones!

Taken from here, and there are much more of this.

Spraying with style


Taken from here:
I like graffiti. I don’t mean random vandalism sprayed with abuse on houses, I mean ’spraying with style’. When there has been large construction work in the city the wood boards they put around are soon decorated. While some paint is crude and forgettable, other work has style, sends a message, shows talent. It should be kept.
Living in this village there is less style most of the time. One bridge I walk under with the dog has had a lot of random abuse sprayed in black along the concrete. Their spelling is atrocious - I don’t mean badly spelt as in cool, I mean just bad. Some years ago it had some excellent political graffiti there - the council cleaned it off unfortunately.
The above image is from another bridge we went under for the first time. There were a couple of other items sprayed but this image I liked - that image is much better than the photo suggests.
Maybe it’s my prejudices but it seems that this graffiti sits wrongly in between the two villages. Not the abuse I mentioned - I think that’s everywhere - but the better stuff. Seems that the local kids just couldn’t have the talent I suppose.
I like the picture too.

Vancouver streets art

That's great! I finally found someone else besides me who cares about street art - in other words, art made through streets:

Street art is a chance to say or show directly to anyone who walks by whatever you want them to hear or see. Advertisers do it. Christians do it. You do it everyday already with your clothes, the places you frequent, the people you hang out with; these are all indirect messages sent out to the world. This is a chance to be direct.

Street art is any art developed in public spaces — that is, “in the streets” — though the term usually refers to art of an illicit nature, as opposed to government sponsored initiatives.The term can include traditional graffiti artwork, stencil graffiti, sticker art, wheatpasting and street poster art, video projection, art intervention, and street installations. Typically, Street Art is used to distinguish contemporary public-space artwork from territorial graffiti, vandalism, and corporate art

Take a look at pictures!

Incoming art

Isn't art great?

Art is aspiring. Art can discover itself in so many different forms. In drawings. In music. In buildings. In a poster with a cool picture creatively stuck on a tree.

I like art. I like to stumble into great things from time to time.

So, here is the Paris urban art site, with lots of drawings on the streets (I have to visit Paris! Hopefully this summer....).

And here - very cool artist, Banksy apparently he's been graffiting a lot. I like his art.
