Street Art Fun with Pixels

2008_04_pixelgraf.JPG

Seen on 9th Street between 2nd and 3rd Avenues: Pixel graffiti. The piece was tagged at little while later.

I love it!!! but it makes me super mad that it got tagged.

 

is that invader? - pretty damn good either way

 

stop glorifying vandals. tagged.... give me a f*cking break. the word is VANDALIZED.

what would you call it if someone did that to your car/apartment/leather jacket/etc???

 

dope shit!

 

i wish someone would do that to my apartment!

 

I love it! 8-bit art FTW!

And whoever desecrated this fine piece of art by vandalizing it with graffiti should rot in hell.

 

Good point navin. I'd also like to suggest "defaced."

 

Awesome. Also, tagged is more specific than vandalized, #3, and it's a shame that it was.

 

this is street art, the tag is vandalism.

 

Put it in a gallery if you don't want people to modify it.

 

this shit has been done already. all these artists are fucking cliche.

 

I love that it got tagged - it has become a shining example of the difference between art and vandalism. Tagging can be art, writing your name on someone else's shit is vandalism.

 

babyhitler, your comments are what's fucking cliche. how about just enjoying it for what it is?

 

#13- cliche my balls.

 

jenchungsbra beats babyhitler as the best username on gothamist

 

Modify? Tag? Keep the ghetto in the ghetto please.

 

that's super cool. too bad someone fucked it up.

 

nigga pleez! that shit iz wack!
