http://www.ldngraffiti.co.uk/streetart/index.html There are many forms of Street Art and events around London, and somewhere in Shoreditch almost every night. Here is a small selection of some exemplary work found around town. On 19/12/2009 Street Artist Banksy adapted a piece of graffiti painted in 1985 by London Graffiti Pioneer Robbo.

The power of advertising in the public sphere on our propensity to purchase raspberry-scented shampoo is so effective that hand-bill postering and billboards pop up all over our built environment (and natural environment) like mushrooms overnight. As cities everywhere debate or ignore the appropriate growth of advertising messages, entrepreneurial billboard builders often take the initiative to spread the paid messages in legal grey or red zone because the opportunities for making green are aplenty. Talk about bombing. http://www.brooklynstreetart.com/theblog/

It’s a universal message. An appeal to celebrate the passions of our youth, to give in to simplistic urges, but mostly, to remind people of the difference a smile can make in their day and the infectious effect that smile has on those they encounter.

Katie Sokoler, photographe américaine free-lance et street artiste de 24 ans, a réalisé une jolie performance dans les rues de Brooklyn. A l’aide de toutes petites étiquettes qu’elle a pris soin de personnaliser de mots doux comme « You are loved », « You found me! » ou « For you », elle accrochent ces belles pensées sur un mur, un guidon de vélo ou dans des arbustes laissant libre court à l’interprétation des futurs destinataires. Sympa ! http://www.thetrendygirl.net/2011/04/mini-street-messages.html

In dieser schon älteren Folge von Mixery Raw Deluxe TV interviewt Falk Säurespezialisten der Feuerwehr und die Polizei Hamburg. Es geht um ETCHING, durch einen Fall in Berlin wieder aktuell geworden ist das Thema nicht nur brisant sondern bedarf wohl immer noch Informationen über die großen Risiken für Beteiligte und Unbeteiligte. So kann die Anwendung ätzender Flusssäure beim Graffiti Writer selbst als auch bei Unbeteiligten, die damit in Kontakt kommen zu großen gesundheitlichen Schäden bis hin zum Tod führen. ETCHING erfüllt in den meisten Fällen nicht nur den Tatbestand der Sachbeschädigung, sondern wird bei Schädigung Unbeteiligter als gefährliche Körperverletzung betrachtet. Zudem ist alleine die Freisetzung der Flusssäure ein Straftatbestand für sich. Bei einer erwachsenen Person kann eine minimale Verätzung zum Tod führen.
