Graffiti Art Takes Wrong Turn

When graffiti got to be a problem for Mark Schachner. a dell owner in Brooklyn, N.Y., his solution was not to report it, Out to encourage it. He painted his boarded fence white and then posted signs inviting local graffiti artists to come and paint one panel each.

There were rules posted for the artists to follow, one could not paint beyond each flame and they could not dirty the floor or the surroundings. The idea came about when Mark Schachner and son, Jordan, were talking, "We were discussing some great graffiti artists like Jean-Michael Basquiat and Keith Hating, and we were looking at how ugly our fence looked. So I put up the sign and it was like wildfire.

The first night, according to Schachner, seven to nine street artists showed up with about four friends each, ranging in age from teens to early 20s. His motivation was to turn a nasty, ugly fence into a beautiful work of art.

Unfortunately, the idea turned sour. Some street artists went beyond the allowed frame and even painted over some of the nicer pictures. Schnachner says he is committed to talking with these deviant artists in an attempt to change their behavior. If he is unsuccessful, the fence will come down.

Light Graffiti Ideas

One of the coolest ideas is to make sweet light graffiti with the camera. This video show you about how to do a cool form of art called light graffiti.

Using LED glowsticks, flashlights, even fireworks, combined with time-lapse photography, light graffiti artists create a unique tagging that wraps around objects dimensionally, allowing them to tag in a way they'd never be able to with spraypaint. Very cool!

Romanian Graffiti Artists

The RCI flew in three early-twenties graffiti artists to team up with Wooster Collective co-founders Sara and Marc Schiller and cover the gallery walls in brightly colored religious icons, serpents, spies, manimals, slogans, and symbols.

Schiller who spends his days collaborating with street artists wanted to give these artists the opportunity to interact with New York. "As much as technology and the Web connect everything, you can't replicate the experience of being together."

The opening also merged street and multimedia art with screenings and interactive installations from Simultan, Romania's largest video and media-arts festival. It's still a relatively small festival, but Cristian Neagoe, the young new communications director largely responsible for bringing these artists here, says it's easier to get an authentic experience that way. "Here it's a bit more controlled," he says. "An artist becomes trendy and the media latch on. In Romania they're starting from scratch, nobody watches or gives a damn, and that way, they have the freedom to innovate."

New/Old Graffiti by the Wuer HSR Station

I saw a couple walls painted up right by the Taichung HSR station from the bus the other day and figured on getting back to see if there was anything else nearby. Just across the stream to the south beneath the overpass there is perhaps a .5km long wall that is 98% covered with great stuff from Four Crew and Virus No 6. Most of the stuff along the wall is dated 2007, but there's a ramp tagged 2008 on the south end. It's good to finally find where everyone has been active for the past year.
