I listened to this ABC broadcast about Street and and Graffiti. this morning
“Street artists, advertising agencies and the authorities are in the middle of a space race.
It’s a lot less about little green men and much more about spray paint and stencils. But the stakes are still sky high. Artists are busy commandeering as many city surfaces as their paints will allow, authorities are trying to neutralise the threat, while advertising agencies are keen to clone the potency of hand painted art.”
I have a small series of work that looks at much more ephemeral art of peeling advertising posters. Which is a kind of street art.
