why we love street art


"The power of street art doesn't necessarily even have to lie within the context of the pieces themselves, but rather in the knowledge that no permission was sought, that someone is still working outside the systems that dictate who is allowed to use public visual space."

"Turning a public space into a vehicle for any kind of art is a politicized act in itself, whether or not the project has overtly political content."

quotes taken from OVERSPRAY MAGAZINE with props to publicadcampaign.com for bringing them to our attention.
