A mix of street art & culture jammingPosted by Shift Delete on 5/27/2011THAT WHICH CHANGES OUR WAY OF SEEING THE STREETS IS MORE
IMPORTANT THAN THAT WHICH CHANGES OUR WAY OF SEEING A PAINTING. The commons are the elements of our cultural sphere, owned, shared and enjoyed by all. In law they should be managed by local communities for the benefit of local communities. The commons include public spaces that previous generations have fought hard to keep open and public. However we have little control over the look, feel and content of our streets. More and more public spaces are made private as adverts & brands saturate the landscape keeping our expectations low and our minds distracted. Brandalism is street art activism that critically challenges the authority of private interests within the public realm - our commons. Privatisation builds walls and fences an barriers. Images
