Paula I like Street Art with a message...

I must be old... When I see some of those pieces of scrawled up writing on the train tunnels in sydney or wherever else, i think the people who put them there need to go home and practice before forcing their boring whatevers on the whole world........

On the other hand when I see meaningful art on the same walls with any sort of social message or artistic ability or design, I actually like it and it gives me a sense of freedom.

I think street Art or graffiti is the same as any other genre of art, where the beauty is in the eye of the beholder and even though no art is ever WRONG, we all have differing tastes and sensibilities.

When I was researching I came accross a site with Social street art slogans and images and it interested me alot.

Check it out...www.movimentgraffiti.org. The images up top relate to these social issues below...

Stopoverty/Neqirdu l-Faqar

This is street art I can relate to...
