Street Art not funded by local residents is Vandalism [SPLIT]

[gsdx]

^ I can't believe that you don't know the difference between 'street art' and 'vandalism', so that leaves just 2 other options.

Let's face it. The whole modern art establishment is built on very rocky ground. It's all based on palaver and boosterism. The value of modern art is not founded on anything but the dishonest feeding the gullible rich and the institutions.

Art is art because the modern panjandrums of the art world say it is. And for some reason they only say it of those who have been through the art establishment's accepted course for being an artist.

Time and time again from the famous Bruno Hat hoax of the 20s until today, people have shown up the idiocy of the modern art establishment by creating fake modern art.

'Get a kit and clean graffiti yourselves' – councillor advice on vandalism problem

RERESIDENTS are being urged to take home a "graffiti cleaning kit" to wipe vandalism from the streets.

It comes as people call for graffiti hotspots, including one outside a west Hull primary school, to be cleaned up by Hull City Council.

John Robinson, a governor at Thoresby Primary School, says he is sick of looking at a "tag", or signature, scrawled on to the wall of an empty house in Hardwick Street months ago.

He believes the problem is getting worse, with graffiti popping up in Chanterlands Avenue, Tennyson Avenue, Cave Street, off Beverley Road, and Beech Grove, off Princes Avenue.

Now, people are being urged to take home a graffiti cleaning kit from Hull City Council to get rid of the problem themselves.

It's disgusting.

I love the visceral distaste in this thread. It is delicious to know what makes some people squirm.

Singapore to cane and jail two Germans for vandalism.

Two German men have been sentenced to three strokes of a cane and nine months in jail in Singapore for vandalism and trespassing.

Andreas Von Knorre and Elton Hinz pleaded guilty to entering a train depot and spraying graffiti on a train.
Singapore has strict laws on vandalism, and has caned and jailed foreigners in the past for the offence.

These include a Swiss national in 2010 and US teenager Michael Fay whose 1994 caning sparked global controversy.
Von Knorre, 22, and Hinz, 21, had flown into Singapore from Australia in November last year and vandalised a train during their stay.

They left the country afterwards and were eventually arrested in Kuala Lumpur in neighbouring Malaysia.
Both men expressed remorse in court, and called their acts "a stupid mistake".

They are mugs.

Oh God, some of the attitudes present in this thread are outright depressing. I don't wanna imagine what you guys are like at parties.

Spray-painting someone's living room is different; the public doesn't have to look at that.

Are you ever asked back?

 

[TheLoveableLoner]

There's street art all over my neighborhood, commissioned by owners of buildings. I regularly see walking tours of the art by tourists.

Usually a lot of the stuff I see that isn't commissioned is appreciated you--usually painted on abandoned areas, not specifically people's property.

You don't live in the desert or the Antarctic Ocean. Everything is owned by somebody— individuals, communities and trusts charged with the responsibility to care for property.

Wankers should express themselves by spray-painting their own property or painting their own flesh.

Yeah, and I'm glad the police deal with wankers wankery in England along with the wankery graffiti too.

What a mess.

 

[pat grimshaw]

mess upon mess.

The words are unintelligible. They're not mean to communicate; they 'elitist-icly' show off the paint company's repertoire of bright colours but communicate nothing!

What a mess.

I like it more than the wall it's on.

 

[The Fly]

In my country fly tipping is a form of vandalism too.

Sayyyyyy Whuuuuuut?

I've never heard of "Fly" tipping. We have cow tipping that involves actual cows, but not fly tipping (though I'm sure some of the cows attract flies).
