Graffiti Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

What are some of the best examples of graffiti you've seen?

On the way back from Aber to Manchester, I saw in huge letters on a motorway bridge "Let's go to war, kill em all" - just made me laugh about how much anti-war morons it would have annoyed.

Last year in a toilet cubicle I wrote on the wall "taxes are theft". Within a month or so, all the walls were covered in a mass discussion about this - I was well impressed.

Hmmmm would have to be the Wesleyan tunnels, especially the serial stories of El Wes's quest for "truth, justice and cheap drugs."

The only notable graffiti I have ever seen was on the walls of Graceland in Memphis.

"After three days he rose again... And did more drugs."

During the elections for President in the Students' Union in Aber, some guy posted pictures of himself. He looked well gay. I thought nothing of it until when walking back out of it, I saw his poster on which people had scrawled "shift-lifter", "arse bandit".

I'm a big fan of French graffiti. Visual representation of the French language always looks appealing to me, especially with it's a Francophonised Anglo term.

That graph art is copying the work of Vaughn Bode.

Many artists have copied his ideas.

Best Graffiti I've Ever Seen Tired of ads?

There is a very large Mormon Temple next to the busy Washington Beltway. On the bridge this photograph was taken from, ... well, I'll let somebody else who has also seen this tell the story.

quote:
Mulder, have you ever driven on the beltway from Rockville? You know how you can see, off to the right, the Mormon temple, rising up out of the trees like the Emerald City? I think it looks like the Emerald City. Apparently someone else did, too, because when you drive by, you can see the temple and right in front of you, on that train bridge over the beltway, someone clearly spray-painted Surrender Dorothy. Sure, the transportation department came along and painted over it with industrial gray paint, but you can still clearly see every letter. Makes me laugh every time.
