Das größte illegale Graffiti der Welt

2. Juni 2015 um 16:40 Uhr von Ronny

Die Indecline Crew hat in der kalifornischen Mojave Wüste ein verlassenes Flugfeld des Militärs aufgestöbert, gesäubert und die 910 Meter lang und circa 10 Meter breite Landebahn lackiert. Macht um die 9000 Quadratmeter. Das ist mal ein fettes Piece. Womöglich das größte illegale der Welt. Klasse Aktion mit Kontext.

This Land Was Our Land—both literally, in the sense that acres of remote desert were used up and discarded by our government in order to improve our ability to drop bombs on people in far off lands (who constitute a threat just because they peddle a different set of ideals than us;) and also figuratively, as in we as a species are presently embroiled in the constantly accelerating process of using up and discarding this planet as a whole.

It was ours, and it easily could be ours again. The only thing that needs to change is that we take responsibility for it.

Fight on, Indecline.

Graffiti-Drohne malt auf die größte Werbetafel New York Citys

1. Mai 2015 um 14:47 Uhr von Ronny

Im letzten Jahr hat der Street Art Künstler Katsu eine Graffiti-Drohne entwickelt und in einem Studio gezeigt. Mitte der Woche hat er das Teil nun beim Sprühen in der Öffentlichkeit gefilmt – und zwar am größten und meist gesehenen Billboards New York Citys.

The Calvin Klein billboard, one of New York City’s largest, sits at the busy intersection of Houston St and Lafayette St. The graffiti drone’s potential for troublemaking on an unprecedentedly grand scale is obvious. The billboard is absolutely gigantic, about six stories tall. It would have been almost impossible to tag Jenner’s face using the traditional methods. One could rappel off the top of the building or use a cherry picker, but neither option is exactly safe, or subtle, or quick enough that one could do it without cops on regular patrol spotting it. With the drone, by contrast, it took less than a minute. Still, the artist admitted, “It was a bit tense.” (Needless to say, the stunt was extremely illegal).
