Graffiti is often framed at taking back the space. I think i’m rather lucky to live in a place where advertising seems somewhat more limited, with considerable space given to more local events, although i do have a giant billboard outside my flat.
There’s also a lot of space given over to graffiti, some more industrial spaces have completely embraced it, with whole lengths of walls and buildings allowing it. sharing with communal spaces such as as music venues and skate parks.
I think every underpass is also allowed, and fresh work appears every so often.
All the street furniture throughout the city, electrical boxes etc, are all uniquely decorated and it still cheers me when i see a new one.
- mmooss 10mo agoWhere are you that allows it in all those places? Do you mean that it's officially allowed or that laws against it are just not enforced?
- secretsatan 10mo agoSwitzerland, many towns and cities seem to allow it in certain areas, the exact legality i’m not sure of. A lot of it is very good, and i think it’s organized to some aspect, with events where they redo whole areas and have competitions. I really do like the street furniture one, which is pretty much everywhere in my city, it was organized by a local art group and involved many artists Honestly think it’s a good thing
