Good fun. I know a few artists around where I live. Whenever my friends get new apartments the walls are full of graffiti, in just days. Especially my friends apartments in Boston. |

that's not art! it's vandalism. |
||||||||
|
|

How is graffiti not a form of art? Not in that video, that's just taggingm but i'm talking about real art, and street stenciling. |
||||||||
|

haha @ pendulum in that. banksy killed the graff art scene. noones even mentionable next to him (and i know a shitton of people here are disagree with me on that one). |

i was being sarcastic. i write too. or wrote i should say. i reckon hanal will know of my old crew if he hangs around manchester. sarcasm doesn't work too well in text form. |

Not all graffiti is art, let's not idolise it. |
||||||||
|

i hate tags they should write something legible and meaningful |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

lately pepole have been ever since stenciling is getting more popular. |
||||||||
|
|

and yeah.... banksy is like......beyond amazing. there isn't even a word for the talent that guy has. |

sarcasm or not, 1up was right, it is vandalism pure and simple. there's no fucking art involved in that video, you show me where the art is? there's no originality, there's no important statements being made, there's nothing asthetically pleasing about it, they're just scrawling their names on walls and making the place look run down and shitty. those guys need to get a fucking life and grow out of the 5 year olds mentality of ownership. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
why don't they go home and get themselves a canvas and try creating something other than some shitty tag over and over and over again. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that is ugly |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
unfortunately all they really care about is their 'rep' and if we're being honest about it, they're probably not all that smart neither. probably a bit thick in the head |

What is house? I mean, what is Art?! Two questions I'll never know the answer to. One of my young neighbours goes out at 3am and tags places and he is expressing himself, maybe it's not very academic or aesthetically pleasing he still needs to do it. The video was crap though, the need to do it is more interesting for me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see the need as more of an egotistical insecurity |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe it is? Why do painters "artists" feel the need to perpetuate a certain image and put their name to it? |
||||||||
|

my spelling is impeccable today! |

personally i think drawing giant knobs on everything is much more entertaining. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
grafitti is old hat and therefore resides within the realm of gayness + banksy is the george micheal of grafitti |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

True, the art of giant knobs in Tiananmen square etc. drawn in the Super bad film were great! |

the insecurity of the artist ego is one level to what i would call a 'proper artist' doing art for what i consider to be the right reasons, one of which is to explore creativity in new and inventive ways, to explore the human condition and exchange ideas through various mediums. the ego insecurity in the case of the 'real artist' only adds to the human quality it has that allows people to relate. this however (to me), seems only concerned with the ego as a dominant statement, 'this is what i do, here i am, i don't give a fuck what you think', and frankly i don't see it going too far beyond this. like i said, 99% of the time you can't even see what it says and when you can read it, it usually just says the 'street' name of the vandal, such as 'rush', 'icebitch' and / or 'fuckqueen' |

|

Exactly! You don't get it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
am i incapable of getting it? why don't you explain? if you've got a good enough point then i'm willing to be swayed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I don't know you? I don't know what you do and don't feel about "art". I'm not about to do a diatribe changing your opinion. It's more fun researching why/how youself. |
||||||||
|
|

|

wtf man?! you guys aren't even making any sense any more! |

go to sleep Sandy. It's bed time. |

heh... I really do think I could use a nap or something... |

i just want to make sure here. you are aware that i am talking about just the pens, right? i can appreciate tags with colour done with spray cans because they have some visual appeal and often bring life to dead scenes for me. the pen tagging just reminds me of school toilet vandalism done by the thugs who i always fucking hated |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
God knows! It's nearly 5am here and I'm talking shit for the fun of it. Tagging originally was/is a territory thing. It is pretty animal like really. It doesn't need a critique from bystanders to be authentic. I'm sure anyone here now could critique your contribution to being alive now and what you have given so far. You don't like pens. What have you got Raz0rblade? |
||||||||
|

|
|
i love pens. but i don't like what they're doing with them. me no likey. me think it look ugly and threatening. me feel like people saying 'this is mine. if you sit on that, with what that got me tag on it, then you is sittin on me, AND I WILL FUCKING CUT YOU' that's how i feels |

pens = penis? |

those tags are a from of creativity, just as music is. what they're doing is essentially urban calligraphy. it's pure form and hardly any function (well perhaps to piss-tag their territory). i'd rather have those kids express themselves this way than violence. |
||||||||

I am usually impressed when I see someone tag the side of a bridge going over an on-ramp with no easy way as to how they got up there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so i should put some of my tracks on a ghetto blaster and walk around london as a direct way of dealing with my uncontrollable violent tendencies? |
||||||||
|
|

|

no, you personally should climb the big ben with your soundblaster. great view is guaranteed and no-one will have to listen as well. |

|
|
Vandalism. They should buy a canvas and got to art school. |
