The kids like it. The parents like it. Beyond that it’s pointless to criticize.

Airing your opinions about graffiti versus art where most people are simply to young to understand the principals is just silly. Are we doing them a great disservice by giving the sidewalk chalk?

Really, being a father of a little boy, I would have hoped the private citizens who built the playground would have paid him to do it.

Guy with clean block, really, don’t worry. Tags do attract tags. But that is not what a tag is in this sense. Look out for what appears to be an illegible name with little symbols around it. That’s a gang tag. I doubt in your nieghboorhood you will ever see one. Also look out for people writing their opinions and jokes. That attracts everything bad like the broken window principal. But, koi on the sidewalk, doesn’t do anything like this.

agreed. simple case of having huge amounts of money = i can impose my visual images on you, relentlessly, and you cant do anything about it. and buy more of my product, so i can be richer.

people getting bent out of shape about some spraypaint on a playground really need to step back and look at the world around them.

Throw a bottle at him while he works. If he asks you to stop, just say ‘no’.

You’re crazy. Don’t you know graffiti and public vandalism when you see it?

Asking kids about this graffiti is like asking them if they see the image of Jesus in a pile of dog shit.

You probably would.

My suggestion is go ask the children what they think about the ants, clouds and koi. It’s art. Kids need art.

not worth breath. or if we do care so much about the aesthetics of our cityscape, where is the public outcry against all the tacky-ass ads plastered everywhere? if you have money and access to the appropriate legal channels to plaster your garish shit everywhere you get a pass? shoot me.

quick art lesson: if you have to argue that something is not art, you are affirming just the opposite.
