nice stuff here..ty for post
So much of creativity and labor, only to be white-washed out by ‘city cleaners’. Its a shame.
wonderful creative expressions!!!

Lovely! and thank you for posting.

I’m organizing this street art related event and I need some recommendations for 3 movie projections.
I settled for Banksy’s Exit through the gift shop, Basquiat and Beautiful Losers, although I’m not sure about the last one.
Any other movies anyone here might recommend?
Thanks
