Theme Day: Graffiti

T0day, October 1, 2010 is Theme Day across the CDPB (citydailyphotoblog) community. One man's meat is another man's poison, as they say. Now, the age old question(well, almost for the ages) is graffiti ART? or is it a NUISANCE and vandalism?? Behind The Asylum, a bar and dance club, you'll find these newly painted walls enclosing the building. These walls are painted over every six months or so by art students who work nearby. Lots of dots in this one. Happy weekend!

  2. I knew you'd come up with something cool for theme day. Portland is loaded with exuberant graffiti artists.

  3. Well to me, if this is sanctioned for the art students then it's not graffiti, it's wall art and I love this a lot!
    Happy Theme Day, Bird!

  10. Graffiti on a molecular level. Nice and abstract.

  11. It seems to me there is graffiti and then there is street art (ie Banksy in London) - this is crazy colourful tho and if it's permitted for art students and then painted over for the next go, well it's not really graffiti - is it? I love the colours.

  13. «Louis» is of the opinion that graffiti is an assault on the eyes that occurs world-wide.
