Graffiti vs. ‘Street Art’

Posted by Matt Cipriano | No Comments

Peter Vallone Jr. is a huge… Let’s just simply say he is a big name in the ‘war’ against graffiti. In a recent Colbert Report segment Stephen Colbert took aim at Vallone. Apparently the Colbert Report used him because they “wanted to speak to they person most despised by the graffiti community.” The video is about a six year old who was reported to the department of sanitation because she was drawing on her stoop with chalk (we wrote about it a few months back).

Also for your viewing pleasure (I just found this one to be pretty impressive):
Some super creative ‘Street Art’ (the image was painted in negative, when a picture was taken of it and inversed you can see what the colored image would look like).And lastly some anatomical graffiti/street art on the site StreetAnatomy

    As with Anna Karina, we prefer to remember the U.S.A as she was in the 1960s.
