School Yard Graffiti

avatar

Exploring our 'new' town of Ancona, Italy recently we came across this junior school with many wall murals... but I prefer the term graffiti

I am unable to walk past graffiti without taking a photograph of the art ... or as old fogey's would have it ... the offensive destruction of property. Which is it do you think?

There were many of them so I practised making a collage using paint.net. I do not think they turned out too badly {pats self on back}

I really admire people who have the creative ability to do well proportioned murals on outsize buildings, concrete pillars, bridges etc.

Hi there :)

I almost wanted to greet you in Italian... but then I thought let's skip it and carry on in English 😁
Very nice graffiti you saw, I would also call them artworks hehe, so cute. Of course, I don't like ugly scribbles, and if something ruins the facade and the historic buildings. The murals, the artistic one, they can come :))

Hope you are doing well?

hello my friend .... I am indeed well, and you?

I am grateful we are speaking english.... I have too much italian on a daily basis {smile}

I agree, scribbles and names and slogans painted on buildings is not a good sight. That to me is pure vandalism !!

I love stuff like that, feel like it adds a little something when the building itself is boring XD

I don't like minimalist buildings and actually hate ones that use a lot of glass x_x

If it was mostly glass like a lot of city buildings seem to be these days then probably not.

That was a 4:00 a.m. chirp from me.... sorry ! Howard Roark was a 'modernistic' architect in Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead .... he was into straight lines and glass etc. Book set in the 1940's and I think actually authored in 1943 or so. I loved it when I read it at the age of 18 while in the military.
