City Scars – Graffiti and Fight For Urban Beauty

It is widely acknowledged that art is highly subjective and truly lies in the eye of the beholder. Often, differences of opinion merely reveal individual preferences, and it is generally agreed that these personal tastes should not override the freedom granted to the artist An Artist Portrait (Part One) - This is a fantastic article written exclusively for my Weblog by Frank V. Cahoj. Please feel free to comment here or send him emails. He'll be happy of this. An Artist Portrait (Part One) My name is Frank Cahoj and I have been an artist since I was born. I can say this in confidence without… and their work. However, the issue of graffiti is one of the few situations that gives rise to heated debate and contention over where these freedoms begin and end.

Historically, graffiti has been portrayed in a negative light, with artists often being individuals with criminal records or gang affiliations. This is likely the reason for such a pessimistic outlook. Nowadays, graffiti is seen in a different light – as a potentially more accepted and positive form of self-expression. However, there are limited venues and settings where this “socially acceptable” form of art …

The Critique Of This Talent, Graffiti

Graffiti is a form of art appreciated by its enthusiasts for its social and cultural expressions. In its early days, graffiti was often considered vandalism and carried legal sanctions. However, over time, it has gained significant recognition, with galleries hosting exhibitions to showcase the impact of graffiti and the talent of its artists.

Graffiti artists are incredibly gifted and creative, expressing their thoughts and concerns using colors and brushes.

Graffiti: A Visual Expression Through Writing and Drawing

Graffiti is a form of visual expression in which individuals articulate themselves by writing letters or drawing images on walls. Some groups recognize it as an art form, while many others view it as vandalism.

Glass Scratch And Graffiti Protection

Graffiti
by duncan

It is an unfortunate reality in today’s world that glass is a common target for graffiti vandals. They may spray paint on it, scratch it with stones or other hard objects, or etch it with acid. Additionally, the glass used in construction can often be subject to accidental damage, such as grazing and scratching, or overspraying. Since glass is widely used in buildings, storefronts, and car windows, the cost of replacement after such damage can become prohibitive.

As it seems impossible to prevent this damage from occurring in the first place, what is needed to reduce the cost is graffiti protection or glass scratch protection in the case of construction damage. This protection comes in the form of a durable, transparent film that covers the glass.

The film is virtually invisible when applied to the glass and can last up to 10 years. Due to its durability, it is much less likely to be damaged by graffiti or accidental scratching. If it does get damaged, it costs significantly less to replace than the actual glass. It is the ideal solution for glass in public spaces that are prone to graffiti damage.

In the case of glass that has …

Graffiti Removal – Anti Graffiti Tips and Techniques

Graffiti
by szeke

Before you start removing any graffiti, it is essential to first identify the type of material that has been affected by the graffiti. Stone, brick, concrete, glass, aluminum, street signs, and bus stops are just a few examples of surfaces where graffiti may be found.

These surfaces can be either smooth or textured, painted or unpainted. All these factors must be considered before selecting the appropriate method for graffiti removal. Most graffiti is applied using spray paint, but some artists use markers, stickers, or other means to leave their mark. Each type of material and graffiti application requires a specific removal method, which varies depending on the combination of these factors.

Apart from paint, graffiti removal products are not typically found in hardware stores or other retail outlets. They must be purchased from specialty suppliers and are often available only in bulk to cities and professional graffiti removal services. However, if the graffiti to be removed is paint, you may find suitable products at local stores, although they are likely intended for smaller projects. One way to remove graffiti is by painting over it.

Painting over graffiti is a simple and usually affordable method for removal. Just apply …
