Shane Guthrie Posted December 11, 2016 Share #1 Posted December 11, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've seen bits of graffiti and bits of sanctioned street art posted. How about an open thread? The German-language thread Graffiti, Graffiti, Graffiti... seems to be a mix of both. Alley in Lisbon I like the claim of "fake".

Shane Guthrie Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share #6 Posted December 12, 2016 You get away with it adding some more context. Thanks David. It raises a good question, about street photography not being photography on the street, but instead something about the human condition. When does street art tell us something about that? Perhaps when it's not what we've seen before and we imagine something about the artists and their ideas. Mark, what's been done to those control boxes or bins is hilarious. I've not seen that before. I very much like the note of caution at the cross-walk, a little holding back. Well spotted. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bateleur Posted December 12, 2016 Share #7 Posted December 12, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) There is some wonderfully creative and humorous art made by anonymous artists on the streets. There is something poignant about such art, as epitomised in these examples, for they may be gone in a day. Thanks for sharing Charles 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

david strachan Posted December 12, 2016 Share #11 Posted December 12, 2016 Some great stuff here guys Better than a lot. I suppose I just have trouble with reconciling photography and a direct 1:1 copy of someone elses "art".. Add context, and a whole new world comes out. More please from all.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkP Posted December 12, 2016 Share #13 Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) I completely agree. I thought I didn't photograph much street art as I too consider it just documenting someone else's work. Then I realised I had a fair bit of 'contextualised street art photography' ;-) Fitzroy, Melbourne R7, Cinestill 800, 28-90 Vario-Elmarit-R Welcome, dear visitor!
