what do you guys think about espo..

he was a philly vandal, and a magazine publisher that went to new york businesses and claimed he worked for the cities new organization to clean up graffiti.

Then after lieing to them, would paint his name on their buildings.

is he an artist?

ironically, I like the idea of guerrilla art, but doing it to small business and doing it so badly doesn't exactly accomplish anything does it? Seriously?

Do you feel your art presented any kind of message, even if it was just ars gratia artis ("art for art's sake")? I see it as a waste of talent. Go paint something that needs painting if you really need to paint. Get the kids involved with wanting to make their neighborhood something to be proud of. fuck. I live in a much "worse" neighborhood in Cinci, and when I came to Columbus last weekend, the first thing I noticed is what a trashed shit-hole it is because no one gives a fuck about where they live (or more accurately, where their neighbors live). Then people wonder why they get no respect or why some fuckhead developer can buy out their whole neighborhood for pennies on the dollar forcing everyone to fucking move.
