Its not really art. It looks to me like vandalism. I hope you will soon start to realise that revolution and being untidy are not the same thing.

I agree, this is not art but vandalism.

Now this is art !

Buldings look much nicer when they are clean of ugly graffitis. Dont you think?

Both are georgian houses in dublin city.

Is this art?

Is this graffitis?

"Is this graffitis?"
No. It's bicycles (or parts thereof). I'm not quite sure how to define it but it is far more interesting than the spray painting. I just hope that serviceable bicycles were not butchered during its production.
For those who have not seen that before, it is in Middle Abbey Street a short distance from the corner of Liffey Street.

hi Noise!

Maybe the discussion will be here for ever... but I think you´re like some kind of documentarist (sorry...I dont´t know if this word exist!!! my english is not good)

we are writing the History at streets every day and the study of the graffitties and paintings remains since times of the Roman empire

I like this work...and usually use some of the photos to write stories

don´t give up !... nor the artists neither the photographer!

Noise Hacker's work as a social documenter is invaluable. Who cares if you call it art or whatever, it's reality and it's being documented here. Keep it up Noise Hacker and the scribblers, you have many fans.

What matters is... is it attractive or meaningful.

To be honest most of the stuff above is either 'sixth-class-slogans' or just plain awful.

I quite like the penguin thing though.

Keep spraying, but for gods sake get a LOT better.

great to see awarness of our surroundings and environment,this is better than any exibition,keep it up,including those who criticise,we need diverce opinion to keep balanced.

If you say street art is mere vandalism then i put it to you that every bus stop,building side and magazine have been vandalised.
Not all of us wish to stand at a bus stop being told how much better our lives would be if we had this product or that.
We need colour and life on our city streets,not tacky,manipulative profit-driven messages bombarding us from every angle.

by alan the straight thinkin stoner Thu Jan 27, 2005 20:22

couldn't have put it better myself starstruck. people dont mind shit on there building once they get paid maybe the scribblers shud start paying and it might become acceptable! and to the people against it....this is more than graffing or 6th class slogans it much higher level thn that

in response to the sudden deaths of many known global child abusers during the holiday period
in SE Asia, this graffiti stencil appeared in continental europe, and holds a message for all unthinking sex and exploitative tourists.

"let your hair down" "relax" "have fun" "dance" honestly.
Brazil is one of the sexiest countries in the world.
But somethings are beyond the remit of decency, humanity and civilisation. If you're thinking about the above picture read the article at the link-
