Re: graffiti on the only mailbox.....mine!

sorry, but this isnt any graffiti but some little kid trying to express himself.
there is no tag/signature to it, so it cant be addressed to anybody and the quality of said outlines/throw up can be classified as graff illiterate... never mind. wipe it off and thats it.

IMHO, KCBR is a freaking awesome graffiti crew and they are making Zürich a better/more beautiful/less sad place

yes, it takes a lot of skill to spray kcbr over EVERYTHING, the next time they climb up a tower or crane to deface private property I hope they fall off.

There is indeed no art in the KCBR stuff, there are a couple of graffiti teams going around who actually do make art, even tough they are destroying property that does not belong to us.

I am still partial to providing suitable spaces, like tunnels and other suitable spaces, so that the graffiti artists who create real art (and not just tag their name in all places) can perform their art.

Even more annonying: thrash and puber! This guys are everywhere and they're not really blessed with creativity ...

Everyone living in Zurich should know of whom I'm speaking, for the other ones:

Re: graffiti on the only mailbox.....mine!

thats a "new" trend in graffiti. its called among scenesters ill-style. its by choice done that way, a kind of anti-statement to the "rules" of how to write styles. or lets say a very broad common sense of stylism that existed. and still does for the most. but these toy writers want it the way like back nyc 1960, when no techniques really existed and abstracting letters was kicking of very simple and crude. i pray that this direction is going to take a better route... and i am feeling with you hating puber, hello, dres, thrash, iv and others. btw: 01-03.06. rote fabrik, meeting of styles. check it out how its really been done!

Re: graffiti on the only mailbox.....mine!

I went yesterday afternoon. Lots of interesting pieces, very bright and strong colours.

After some years of inactivity, I used again the fisheye lens
