Within the first 30 minutes of walking around Ljubljana it became obvious that were was a small but good street art scene. Right in the middle of the city there is the tag ‘Vixen’ scrawled everywhere, sometimes accompanied by a cartoony duck head. Ever since visiting Berlin last year and doing a tour of the graffiti areas there ive had a new appreciation for street art. I still hate stupid little punks that ‘tag’ everything with no talent or skill what-so-ever. But the guys that throw up genuine pieces of huge art on a wall is brilliant. I think it should be legalised in more areas of more cities as it can look really good.
So I basically spent an entire day just walking all of the streets I could and taking photos of it all. There is one area in particular, a squat where local artists have taken up residency. Along with some weirdo freaky art installations around the place, all of the walls were covered in really good pieces. Continue for shitload of pics.
Interesting, but I think I prefer Berlin graffiti.
Aren’t some of these photos of Budapest?
