But Which One is Fine Art?

Tyme — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 23:28:12

Today I uploaded two photos to my Flickrstream. One of the photos was taken at the de Young Museum in San Francisco, one of the pre-eminent fine art museums in the world. The other is graffiti and was taken on Market Street in San Francisco (it's now been painted over already).

So ask yourself this question. Which one is graffiti and which one is fine art?

Laughing all the way to the Banksy

Tyme — Mon, 12 Nov 2007 12:41:24

THE phenomenon of Banksy, an English graffiti artist, seems to have got out of hand. Banksy, who trades heavily on his anonymity, began drawing on walls alongside streets in north London and Bristol, his hometown.

But his stencils—often of rats making mordant political jokes—have come in from the cold streets to the prosperous warmth of London galleries and auction houses. Record prices for Banksies have been repeatedly set and exceeded over the past nine months.
