Hvad handler street art om?

“I don’t think about art when I’m working. I try to think about life.”

Street art is regarded as one of the largest art movements that has achieved huge popularity and is still rapidly growing as an art form. Street artworks mainly appear in urban areas and public locations such as exterior walls of buildings, highway overpasses and bridges, and remarkably define the outlook of many neighborhoods and cities all around the world. Reflections on political and social issues are often central to street art which varies from sprayed tags, through stickers and knitted fibers wrapping telephone poles to monumental painted murals covering entire buildings. Street art, to a certain extent, is connected to and encompasses graffiti art.

Hvad er Banksy kendt for?

Det er ham med pigen og den hjerteformede ballon – billedet, som selvdestruerede på Sotheby-auktionen.

Hvad tror vi ellers, vi ved? Den generelle opfattelse er, at Banksy er af hankøn, hvid, britisk og opvokset i Bristol, England, hvor han i 90’erne var en del af graffitikulturen. Og det er nok egentlig mere, end han synes, vi bør vide, så det bør man måske respektere.

Hans stencils er skåret ud i pap. Hans intentioner … ikke nødvendigvis

I 2005 gik en herre med fuldskæg og hat ind på The Metropolitan Museum of Art i New York og hængte ubemærket et maleri op. Det var et klassisk oliemaleri af en overklassekvinde iført en gasmaske.  

Det er uvist, hvem der oprindeligt malede kvinden, men Banksy havde malet gasmasken, og det var ham, der hængte billedet op. Han udførte lignende stunts på MoMA, Brooklyn Museum og The Museum of Natural History.

“Nobody ever listened to me until they didn’t know who I was.” ― Banksy

Hvad er forskellen mellem graffiti og street art?

Mange af os falder i fælden. Vi kalder graffiti for street art eller street art for graffiti. Men hvordan kan man overhovedet kende forskel på de to? For det er nemlig ikke bare to ord for samme ting - det er to forskellige begreber, selvom de kommer af samme tradition. 

Hvornår startede street art?

I’ve been asked many times, “Why did you create a blog that focuses solely on the street art scene in Philadelphia?” And every time I answer I seem to surprise at least a few people. I think I’m expected to reply that it’s because Philly has a lot of young, driven artists, which it does. Or that Philly has a lot of abandoned or dilapidated spaces (read: canvasses) in otherwise vibrant neighborhoods, and it has that too. But the best reason Philly deserves to have its own blog devoted to documenting and discussing street art — aside from the fact that we have a ton of it — and the reason I always mention first when asked that question, is that Philadelphia is, in fact, the birthplace of street art! That’s right, not New York, not L.A., not London — Philadelphia is were it all began. And it began with the now famous writing on the wall: Cornbread.

“Cornbread,” the tag of one Mr. Darryl McCray, a Philadelphia native and the so-called Godfather of Graffiti, was, in fact, the world’s very first graffiti artist. While graffiti wasn’t really talked about and recognized on a larger scale until the 80s (and by then it was typically associated with New York artists,) it did, in fact, start here, in the City of Brotherly Love, in 1967 when Cornbread began tagging his name across the city, building a name for himself, and igniting the now world-wide phenomenon for guerrilla self-promotion/expression.

Hvem har opfundet graffiti?

Early modernist graffiti can be dated back to boxcars in the early 1920s yet the graffiti movement seen in today's contemporary world really originated through the minds of political activists and gang members of the 1960s.[7] The "pioneering era" of graffiti took place during the years 1969 through 1974. This time period was a time of change in popularity and style. New York City was the main hub of the art form. Graffitists during this time period sought to put as many markings up as possible around the city. This was the ultimate goal of exposure. The city produced one of the first graffiti writers to gain media attention in itself, TAKI 183. TAKI 183 was a youth from Washington Heights, Manhattan who worked as a foot messenger. His tag is a mixture of his name Demetrius (Demetraki), TAKI, and his street number, 183rd. Being a foot messenger, he was constantly on the subway and began to put up his tags along with his travels. This spawned a 1971 article in The New York Times titled "'Taki 183' Spawns Pen Pals".[4][8][9] Julio 204 is also credited as an early graffitist, though not recognized at the time outside of the graffiti subculture.

Also taking place during this era was the movement from outside on the city streets to the subways. Graffiti also saw its first seeds of competition around this time. The goal of most graffitists at this point was having as many tags and bombs in as many places as possible. Graffitists began to break into subway yards in order to paint as many trains as they could with a lower risk, often creating larger elaborate pieces of art along the subway car sides.

By 1971 tags began to take on their signature calligraphic appearance because, due to the huge number of participants, each participant needed a way to distinguish themselves. Aside from the growing complexity and creativity, tags also began to grow in size and scale – for example, many graffitists had begun to increase letter size and line thickness, as well as outlining their tags. This gave birth to the so-called 'masterpiece' or 'piece' in 1972. Super Kool 223 is credited as being the first to do these pieces.[10][11][12]

By the mid-1970s, most standards had been set in graffiti writing and culture. The heaviest "bombing" in U.S. history took place in this period, partially because of the economic restraints on New York City, which limited its ability to combat this art form with graffiti removal programs or transit maintenance. "Top-to-bottoms" evolved to take up entire subway cars. A notable development was the "throw-up", which is more complex than simple "tagging" but not as intricate as a "piece". Not long after their introduction, throw-ups led to races to see who could do the largest number in the shortest time.

Graffiti writing was becoming very competitive and graffiti participants strove to go "all-city", or to have their names seen in all five boroughs. Eventually, the standards set in the early 1970s began to stagnate, and in the 1980s graffitists began to expand and change the subculture as described in the 1984 book Subway Art.

Hvorfor hedder det graffiti?

Graffiti within the City’s right-of-way is removed by Community Services Division staff within 24 hours of it being reported, thwarting the efforts of taggers looking for fame and to stake their claim on neighborhoods.

Staff includes: One Graffiti Removal Coordinator, one Program Specialist, a Graffiti Tracker who checks the hotline, Resident Service Center requests, and inputs all of the tracking information to apprehend vandals, and nine Graffiti Removal staff members. Staff members are responsible for a 56.8-square-mile area.

Quick Fact: In 2015, over 2.480 requests for graffiti removal and Resident Service Center were received on the Graffiti Hotline, and via the Resident Service Center, with the City’s removal crew removing the majority of the graffiti, within 24 hours.

Er street art ulovligt?

Street art is a form of artwork that is displayed in public on surrounding buildings, on streets, trains and other publicly viewed surfaces. Many instances come in the form of guerrilla art, which is intended to make a personal statement about the society that the artist lives within. The work has moved from the beginnings of graffiti and vandalism to new modes where artists work to bring messages, or just beauty, to an audience.[3]

Some artists may use "smart vandalism" as a way to raise awareness of social and political issues,[4] whereas other artists use urban space as an opportunity to display personal artwork. Artists may also appreciate the challenges and risks that are associated with installing illicit artwork in public places. A common motive is that creating art in a format that utilizes public space allows artists who may otherwise feel disenfranchised to reach a much broader audience than other styles or galleries would allow.

Whereas traditional graffiti artists have primarily used spray paint to produce their work, "street art" can encompass other media, such as LED art, mosaic tiling, stencil art, sticker art, reverse graffiti, "Lock On" sculptures, wheatpasting, woodblocking, yarn bombing and rock balancing.[5]

Some street artists have earned international attention for their work and have made a full transition from street art into the mainstream art world — some while continuing to produce art on the streets. Keith Haring was among the earliest wave of street artists in the 1980s to do so. Traditional graffiti and street art motifs have also increasingly been incorporated into mainstream advertising, with many instances of artists contracted to work as graphic designers for corporations. Graffiti artist Haze has provided font and graphic designs for music acts such as the Beastie Boys and Public Enemy. Shepard Fairey's street posters of then-presidential candidate Barack Obama were reworked by a special commission for use in the presidential campaign. A version of the artwork also appeared on the cover of Time magazine. It is also not uncommon for street artists to start their own merchandising lines.[citation needed]

Street art has received artistic recognition with the high-profile status of Banksy and other artists. This has led street art to become one of the 'sights to see' in many European cities. Some artists now provide tours of local street art and can share their knowledge, explaining the ideas behind many works, the reasons for tagging, and the messages portrayed in a lot of graffiti work. Berlin, London, Paris, Hamburg and other cities all have popular street art tours running all year round. In London alone there are supposedly ten different graffiti tours available for tourists.[23] Many of these organizations, such as Alternative London,[24] ParisStreetArt,[25] AlternativeBerlin,[26] pride themselves on working with local artists, so visitors can get an authentic experience and not just a rehearsed script.

Many of these guides are painters, fine-art graduates and other creative professionals that have found the medium of street art as a way to exhibit their work. With this commercial angle, they can let people into the world of street art and give them more of an understanding of where it comes from. It has been argued that this growing popularity of street art has made it a factor in gentrification.[27]

Hvor meget tjener en kunstner?

En billedkunstner kan bruge flere forskellige udtryksformer. Nogle laver skulpturer eller installationskunst.

Andre arbejder med malerier, grafik eller lignende. Men mange eksperimenterer med flere former i løbet af deres kunstneriske liv. Som billedkunstner skal du have sans for rum, form og farve, en kreativ fantasi og talent for at tegne. Der kan være

Er graffiti ulovligt i Danmark?

Ifølge Fremmedordbogen er definitionen på graffiti en skravering, et billede, et ord eller en sætning, der er ridset ind i eller skrevet på en mur. Ordet stammer fra det italienske "graffito" eller "graffo", der betyder skrabning, altså en indskrift på klipper, vægge eller lignende. Den form for indskrifter har ofte haft provokerende karakter med seksuelle eller latrinære temaer.

De allertidligste udgaver af graffiti-lignende afbildninger er fundet som en del af forhistoriske hulemalerier, der illustrerede mennesker, dyr, jagt og ritualer. Men den tidligst daterede graffiti, der minder om graffitikunst, som vi kender den i dag, er fundet i oldtidens Grækenland og Romerriget, hvor vægskrifter og malerier var et udbredt fænomen. For eksempel har man fundet graffitilignende skrifter på vægge i Pompeji og i Roms katakomber, mens man har fundet skrifter i kirker, på monumenter og skulpturer fra middelalderen, kan man læse i artiklen "Forbudt, men nødvendig kunst" på Information.dk (se kilder). Dét, at myndighederne også dengang forsøgte at sætte en stopper for disse kunstmarkeringer, giver dem en vis lighed med moderne graffiti. Dengang brugte man kridt, trækul og blod til at male med og spidse genstande som sten, glas og metal som redskaber til at udføre malerarbejdet. Det var også i oldtiden ofte mure - og i Rom også vægge på offentlige toiletter - der lagde lærred til graffitiens politiske slagord, satire, lommefilosofiske indfald og poesi.

Hvem opfandt graffiti?

Tabu piece fra tiden i Aarhus. Foto: Andreas Rosenberg

Tabu var i sin tid den eneste graffitimaler, der kunne bombe sit navn i gåtempo – simpelt hen trække en streg og skrive sit navn, mens han gik. Han sov om dagen og malede om natten, forfulgt af sin ærkefjende, politimanden Rene Q. Ingen var så flittig som Tabu, og hans navn stod at læse overalt. Journalist Rasmus Poulsen skildrer her den legendariske Tabu. Uddrag fra bogen Dansk Gadekunst

Hvad betyder Banksy?

Ingen ved, hvem der gemmer sig bag kunstnernavnet, og han er i dag vel verdens mest ukendte kendte.

- Kunstverden er den største joke. Det er et plejehjem for de overprivilegerede, de prætentiøse og de svage, lyder et citat, som han menes at stå fadder til.

Det skorter ikke på teorier om, hvem der gemmer sig bag aliasset. Alt lige fra, at han skulle være et af medlemmerne i triphop-duoen Massive Attack, til at han i virkeligheden er en hun.

Hvad er bøden for at male graffiti?

Den ulovlige graffiti hører til under straffelovens § 291 om hærværk. Hvis man ødelægger eller skader andres ejendom, kan man straffes med bøde eller med fængsel op til 1 år og 6 måneder.

Hvis der laves alvorligt hærværk, eller hvis man tidligere er dømt for kriminalitet, kan straffen stige helt op til 6 års fængsel.

Udover straffen skal man som regel også betale ejeren erstatning for de skader, man har lavet. Det kan dreje sig om mange penge, som man kan risikere at skulle betale af på i mange år. (Kilde 15-04-2013)

Kan man komme i fængsel for graffiti?

K træder ind i åbningen til byggepladsen, hvor der bliver opført en ny metrostation. Og hvor de kan komme ind til et S-tog, der holder stille.

TV 2 trænger ikke ind på ulovligt område, men har set A og K's private optagelser derfra.

Småsnakken med en smøg i hånden er nu blevet til raske skridt, hætten er over hovedet, og ansigtet dækket af en skimaske. Den eneste lyd er fodtrin og en hurtig vejrtrækning.

- Adrenalinen er altid høj, når man skal lave et backjump, siger K.

Han forklarer, at et backjump går ud på at male på toget på en endestation, hvor toget holder stille i tre-fem minutter. Og så er der både lokofører og mennesker i toget.

Tror I ikke, det er ubehageligt for dem, der sidder i toget?
