untitled political graffiti

Posted by danthro (Suburbia, United States) on 21 September 2008 in Art & Design.

took this a long time ago and i haven't actually visited the website mentioned in this graffiti and don't know what it is, so this isn't an endorsement of that, i just thought it was an interesting juxtaposition of two types of graffiti--and relevant to what's in the news right now.

coming back to photoblogging after some time away; trying to post a new photo every couple weeks.

Comments, feedback, criticism, suggestions, etc. are always appreciated. Thanks!

me gusta la gama de colores y el procesado me parece muy apropiado.

Freedom to Fascism is a film documentary mostly about the tax system and Federal Reserve --I think (I haven't seen it, just excerpts). These are the kinds of messages you find from time to time around Austin.

I too like the juxtaposition and the varying shade of green - suggestive of money.

Highly topical and we may as well believe what is scrawled on walls these days . . not much trust around.

I love these graffiti.
they are really "urban" and reflects the mood of the city/society
the light on them is also delicious.

Well spotted. Love the color of the wall. I also have a thing for interesting handwriting, so I find this extra cool.
