Wearable Graffiti By Bleach

Funnily enough I run a and was a little torn as to which blog I should feature the graffiti artist Bleach’s tees in, but as this gives me a chance to showcase some of his stunning art I think I’ve made the right choice. Bleach as with many graffiti artists is particularly hard to track down on the Net so it’s probably a good thing I’m writing this post, the best place to learn about the artist is at the excellent UK urban art site UKadapta (don’t ask me why the homepage is in Japanese – all I know is there’s an English version of the site so you won’t need to take a crash course in a highly complicated language).

MELBOURNE GRAFFITI ART

I’ve always appreciated the work of graffiti artists and in Melbourne, Australia, spectacular graffiti art seemed to be everywhere. Bursting off the walls in vivid explosions of color, the urban artworks brought their surroundings to life and helped give the neighborhoods that much more of a pulse.

Melbourne has a rich and impressive selection of graffiti art lining its streets and alleyways. So much so that the British street artist, Banksy, said it was arguably Australia’s most significant contribution to the arts since they stole all the Aborigine’s pencils. However, it’s not just other street artists that think highly of Melbourne’s graffiti, as Australia’s National Trust and Heritage Victoria are both in favor of protecting the city’s graffiti art.

Unsurprisingly though, not everyone considers graffiti as a valid art form to be celebrated. Scott Hilditch, chief executive of Graffiti Hurts Australia says that protecting graffiti would signify the acceptance of society’s decline and open the floodgates to vandalism by sending a dangerous message that graffiti is acceptable.

Nice. Maybe sometime I’ll try to feature some of the best gaffiti arts around the globe here in GDFR.

Railroad Graffiti Picture Derby Connecticut

I know there is graffiti all over the United States, especially in New York and Brooklyn along the subway route, but here's a cool graffiti pic for ya.

We sure were surprised when we went to our secret spot in to go fishing in Derby CT, and as we were walking along a path by some old railroad tracks, and found some graffiti that I would consider art under the railroad tracks.

The 1800's railroad tracks are above me in this picture.

I was so amazed, I couldn't help but take a pic of as much graffiti as I could, but this picture is the best one that turned out.

Did you know that graffito is singular for graffiti? How old is this graffito? From the looks of the rest of the pictures I would guess from the early 1970's. To me it's like art, and appears to have taken a lot of thought in creating something like this, and because of where it's located, I wouldn't consider it vandalism, it's pretty well hid. How many people do you know that can draw graffito letters like this? Not me! See the old Shelton Railroad where we took the picture.

The classic wild style practitioner

For my money, the best style writer in the world today. At a time when many people literally paint the same outline dozens or even hundreds of times and just change up the colors, Bates paints a different style pretty much every time. If you're a writer, know one thing: Bates can probably do your style better than you.

Paralyzed Graffiti Artist Draws With His Eyes

In 2003 Tony Quan, a Los Angeles-based graffiti artist, was diagnosed with Lou Gehrig's disease, leaving virtually every muscle in his body paralyzed except for his eyes

A group of artists created a gadget, costing about as much as an iPod shuffle, that lets Quan continue making art using only his eyes.

How does it work you wonder? Inventor Zach Lieberman breaks it down for NPR:

"He can plot points. And from plotting points, create letters. And from creating letters,
create words. And then color the words, shade the words, extrude them in 3-D, add different features." The contraption looks like eyeglasses but works like a miracle.

They've just won a FutureEverything Award for innovation which includes a cash prize but Lieberman sets the record straight: "We're not in it to make money. This is really coming from the heart."

Interview: Mohammed Ali

God works in mysterious ways. Most of the time beyond our feeble comprehension, like in the case of graffiti artist Mohammed Ali (aka Aerosol Arabic), who after rediscovering his faith, began to fuse street art with the eloquence of Islamic script and patterns. Describing his work as “taking the best of both worlds”, this highly-charged, charismatic aerosol-slinger has travelled across the globe challenging the oft-heard term “clash of civilizations”. In full spirit,juice hooked up with the man who was brave enough to spray light on some of the darkest streets in the world

Artist creates 'light graffiti' with torch across British landscape

Light graffiti: Like an advanced-photographic version of writing your name with a sparkler on Bonfire Night, Michael Bosanko has spent the past five years developing his art Photo: BARCROFT

Created by Welsh artist Michael Bosanko, the Light Graffiti effect is achieved using only five coloured torches and a long exposure on a digital Canon camera.

Like an advanced-photographic version of writing your name with a sparkler on Bonfire Night, Michael has spent the past five years developing his art.

Based in Cardiff, Mr Bosanko, 39, draws most of his light art either in the empty urban night spaces of cities like Newport and his home town, or in the more desolate landscapes of the Brecon Beacons hills.

"I use my torches like an artist would use a paint brush," says Mr Bosanko.

"I employ an exposure that lasts from ten seconds to one hour and then try to let my art manage to create what I had imagined.

"What I feel I am trying to convey is a sense of an aesthetically pleasing shape that clearly does not belong in that particular place or area," said Mr Bosanko.

Covering the lens of his average household torches in coloured paper allows Mr Bosanko to bring different shades of the spectrum to his work.

"To get the best results the shoot depends on the amount of ambient light that is available.

"If I am working in an urban environment like a city then there is lots of ambient light that means I have to work quickly.

"Some people have asked if I have ever used photo-shop on my work and I have to tell them that it is simply created with a torch, a camera and the canvas of the night," says Mr Bosanko.

"The inspiration for my Light Graffiti came to me around five years ago when I was on holiday in Greece," says Mr Bosanko.

"I was taking a picture of a very bright moon one evening in Greece when I noticed a swirling effect because the exposure had been left too long.

"I then realised the beginning of my work in light art and have continued ever since."

The Best of Kelburn Garden Party

Back in 2006, Brazilian graffiti artists, as part of the pan-continental art-clash ‘Graffiti Project’, flew over from Sao Paulo to hand-paint the walls of the castle, creating a visually stunning spectacle and an extraordinary festival backdrop. The free-spirited ethos of The Garden Party aimed to attract musically-aware, fun-loving festival-goers, with a passion for new, inspiring music and successfully created this relaxed and intimate atmosphere.

Side-stepping traditional festival line ups, The Garden Party took place on June 20th and 21st and had a strong focus on hand-picked local talent with a wide-spectrum of international underground artists, quite happily uniting gypsy folk and samba with electronica and techno.

This show brings you some of the tracks from the best acts recorded live from Saturday’s line up, including music and an interview with Simon Richmond from The Bays and music from Scottish based artists James Yorkston, Dave Donelly and Joe Acheson Quartet, in addition to Bonobo and Black Cats.

CArtoon Graffiti Art

It is difficult to give you the answer you are looking for with out more details, such as the name of the artist you are referring to. I will try my best, however.

In my research I found that graffiti art originated in the late 1960's. Later with the invention of spray paint it evolved into what we see now. The Graffiti Artists strive to be known as the best or as the "King" or "Queen". For more interesting detail on this art form you can refer to the source below or do your own search on graffiti art. Another excellent research source would be your local library. Ask your librarian for assistance.

I was able to find one site with lots of samples of graffiti art; you can see if this has what you are looking for. For more sites you can try searching with the key words: Graffiti Art Gallery.

GRAFFITI ARTIST FOR HIRE

The popularity of graffiti has soared over the past decade becoming ingrained in various facets of popular culture. The graffiti artist can be viewed as an outsider or a revolutionary, a voice of the people speaking out from the streets, altering our pre conceptions and leaving indelible commentaries that can challenge the status quo. In recent years graffiti artists have made the general public sit up and take notice and a large quotation of the populous has realised the practice of graffiti can now truly be considered an art form.

Australian artist Chris Poole was driving around his native Perth recently, when some curbside garbage caught his eye. Unlike the average scavenger, Poole wasnt searching for couches or chairs. He had his eye on an old slide viewer—a key component for his next project, a laser-based projector that could display family photos (albeit with a green hue) to the entire town.

Barcelona embraces graffiti and street art . It flourishes and can be seen everywhere. Stores hire graffiti artists to paint a mural on the steel grate which secures the store. It makes for beautiful art and attractive streets when the stores are closed. This graffiti art also changes what you see from day to night since some shops are open during the day - such as stores - while others don't open until evening - such as bars. So the graffiti murals which are displayed during the day are different from those displayed at night.
