Enough with the graffiti, sheesh. www.graffitist.com already.
bob, i, for one, love that gothamist covers graffiti stories, and that it is not covered much in mainstream media is even more reason to post it on gothamist
Yup. I hate that subway ad too!
i can't wait to hack your board and put up my own special "piece"
I bet you would like it as much as building owners!
OH THE IRONY.
no i wouldn't do that. But really...
i think that because the gothamist is constantly going about how cool graffitti and "street art" is someone should hack their board, put up a piece that says "pwnd" and see how they damn well like it.
I think the line is definitely is definitely drawn (or painted, if you will) between beautiful (albeit unauthorized) work in public space vs. shitty tags with a sharpie here on gothamist.
if the board was replaced with a semi-transparent, beautiful, well-done or clever, it would be appreciated by the editors of this website.
then again, it is not hard to see how a building, especially a large, ugly stucco surface, is different from a website.
those geese in williamsburg are probably trying to find some pbr, trucker hats, and th strokes!!! oh man tat's good stuff.
