Graffiti on anniversary of Saddam’s execution
2007-12-30 10:25:57
Black graffiti lauding Saddam Hussein appeared overnight in his home town and small groups of mourners turned out at his grave on Sunday, the first anniversary of the former Iraqi leader’s execution.
“There is no life without the sun and no dignity without Saddam,” read one painted slogan in his home town, Tikrit, north of Baghdad. “Paradise for the hero Saddam,” read another.
The graffiti appeared on buildings including the town’s police station and its agriculture and electricity directorates.

Graffiti to boost road safety
2007-12-20 13:10:31
Mayor of London Ken Livingstone is trying his hand at “reverse graffiti” for a shock campaign to reduce teenage deaths and injuries on the roads around Christmas.
“Every day a teenager is involved in a road accident in London”, he warns.
So his Transport for London authority has launched a Don’t Die Before You’ve Lived campaign with pavement ‘chalk style’ daubings to raise awareness of safety issues.

Braille graffiti
2007-12-17 18:15:10
Scott Wayne Indiana takes public art to new level with braille graffiti. The idea is to put pieces of braille graffiti around here and there as stand alone pieces or as descriptions of sighted graffiti. It’s to add a little something interesting to everyday things like handrails and the backs of signs.
It’s also something to add a connection between sighted and blind people by providing them with something to talk about and share. So few sighted people understand braille that braille graffiti can act as a reminder to sighted people that blind people can help sighted people just as much as the other way around.
Some people like it, others hate it.
I for once like it. What do you think?

Petition to organize and build a graffiti wall in every town
2007-12-15 09:39:55
A petition to organize and build a graffiti wall in every town was put up on a government site in UK by a guy named Paul Slater.
If the government built a legal graffiti wall in every town, where anyone is aloud to spray graffiti, it would cut down the amount of illegal graffiti in towns around Britain and give teenagers something to do and somewhere to go, other than hanging around the streets.
Deadline to sign up by WAS 13 December 2008. It received JUST 4 signatures.

Historic graffiti wall discovered
2007-12-13 09:30:21
Real estate developers in NYC have discovered a historic graffiti wall end of November.
Developer Mike Namer points to a detail on a graffiti wall with drawings by original graffiti subway artists Fab Five Freddy, Futura 2000 and some traces by Jean-Michel Basquiat Tuesday, Nov. 27, 2007, in New York. The large mural, created by some of graffiti’s earliest pioneers, was discovered recently in a 10-story limestone building just as developers were converting it into luxury condominiums.

Santa’s Ghetto 2007
2007-12-12 05:08:28
Every year in December a group of artists display their work at an art show called “Santa’s Ghetto”. Here’s how they explain it:
Santa’s Ghetto is probably the world’s most low-concept art event.
Every year we assemble a loose collection of the great unwashed to hawk their artistic wares on the high street amongst the mindless sham and drudgery of the Christmas season. This year we’ve moved out of Oxford Street into a former chicken shop on Manger Square in Bethlehem opposite the Church of the Nativity (where Santa Claus was actually born).
This puts us one mile behind the security wall in a part of the world ravaged by conflict, poverty and dust. Just the place, you’d think, that’s desperate to check out the latest five-color decked edge screen prints coming out of East London.
You can watch the whole sorry thing unravel on-line but you’re particularly welcome to come out and visit in person (you’re probably far less lik ...

The subconscious art of graffiti removal
2007-12-11 08:56:28
WebUrbanist has an interesting write up of Matt McCormick’s film The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal. Although a few years old it can still be found on the Best of Resfest Vol. 3. The short film brings up the interesting concept that one can find art in the painting over of graffiti done by local authorities. Whether you agree with this concept or not its an interesting idea to keep in mind when walking around a city.
