The Graffiti Exchange - Guangdon

The Graffiti Exchange - Guangdon

An artist's impression of the Graffiti Exchange building, in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou, that is causing supreme unease amongst local writers, even though only the letter 'O' is currently legible.

Some commentators believe that the voids in the building just provide a quick line of defence for the Chinese air force, to defend against foreign bombers. Others think that the design is Inspired by the ancient graffiti on the great wall of China, a symbol of love and piece in Chinese society (see www.flickr.com/photos/pranksy/6731321035/ ).

Back in Beijing, construction of the building is being monitored closely by the ruling crew, who have threatened that the design may need to be altered to reference a much more populist US artistic phenomenology - along the lines of 'OBEY'.

Whatever the intentions of the architect, there is no doubt that the Graffiti Exchange building will change the face of Guangzhou, forever.

With thanks to Jerry Gunner.

Anon the Bus

Anon the Bus

Another brainwave from London Graffiti Tours who recently launched an advertising campaign master-minded by Poster Boy - from NYC. He was (probably) spotted today on a LGT Graffiti Master bus by one our of photographers in the West End, but the company has not surprisingly, refused to verify his identity. We sincerely hope that the initiative gives LGT the boost in customer numbers that they are hoping for...we are even thinking of hiring the bus ourselves for our next staff outing, if they'll let us use our Oyster cards.

Thanks to our photographer Chadhound and Poster Boy - of course.
