Title: Street art
Post by: Bricktop on April 22, 2019, 09:08:25 PM
One of our local councils has implemented a program of engaging world class street artists to paint buildings in the old port area of Adelaide. Like all port areas, it consists of many old buildings and warehouses that are no longer utilised. It belongs to a bygone era before container ships and air freight became dominant.



Here's some of the artworks from that district.



I know that this is also done in Vancouver, so if anyone has examples, post them!!!

We have plenty of street art where I come from.



Street art actually discourages tagging. I had a thread at Third Rail Forum with examples but I'd have to scrounge through external harddrives to find them..





Those above look pretty good.

I went through a real photographing shoot phase of outstanding street art. Alas, its captured on my harddrive that was buggered up when a virus detector ran through it. I really need a person to unlock the damage.. TWO external harddrives have been buggered up that way... I have two others that I'm careful NEVER to be online when I use them.



Instead of me wasting bandwidth, this is where that stunning art is especially if you scroll down to the real good stuff..

A lot of this stuff I'm showing, (the bus stops made of concrete) have either been replaced or no longer in existence. I'm really glad I took pictures.





This is grafitti... not really street art...

Proper street art is not meant to last.



The paint fades over time...or the buildings are demolished. Like sand sculptures, they are enjoyed then disappear from history.
