Quoted post [/b] first off i would like to say that when you start to do this kind of abstract style graffiti it starts to stray away from the roots, its no longer about the message, or getting your name out, its about the art, if it makes you stop what your doing, stand for a minuet, check it out, admire it, than thats what he was trying to do, this piece is so original it escapes from the wall part of it is even on the ground, now its up to you to decide weather its good or not, thats your opinion, hwat im saying is open your eyes a little, i mena with out change, graffiti would still be taki 183 wanna be's just writing there name in plain fonts and shit peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icon Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 exactly, but when you label it as not graffiti, like that twat, as if he has the right to decide what is, and what isnt graffiti, that fucks me, and most other people im sure. yes his style is more about the art, but of course that doesnt mean he cant throw up as much as the next man. you can be up everywhere, but still have another abstract style.

backwax Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 i dont think you guys understand the phrase "abstract" as it pertains to art. this style is the norm for that region and i dont feel it qualifies. maybe it has a differant meaning in graff. as for the piece im more into the traditional letter styles but i can dig it.

Icon Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 fair enough, but my point was that, they arent hard, if you practise, you can get one down within a few weeks, that other style i was argueing over, takes along time to develop, and does qualify as graf, end of.

Joker Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I really shouldn't even bother with this but... Saying that Abstract graffiti isn't graffiti, and is just art on a wall is like shooting yourself in the dick. All graffiti is art on a wall. Abstract graffiti is an extension of style. Nothing more. I agree that this thread is way more about the traditional sense of graffiti... Can2, Bates and the like. Their styles are staples to the culture and highly respected by all. Not because their readable but because they're 100% pure funk. And as writers that's what we're taught is true graffiti. Now the problem I have with that is where's the growth potential for the culture or graffiti? If we all stand back and look at traditional styles and emulate them ourselves... all of us... where will that lead us? No where. It will get to a point where so and so's style looks just like what's his name's style. And obvioulsy we have that already... the last few pages of this thread back that up. Only a handful will stand out. I'm not saying Abstract graffiti is keeping the culture moving but I am saying that kids who break the mold and try something different give the rest of us something to think about. In the sense that there's more out there than just another 80's NYC revival of style. Or to be more current... 70's NYC revival of style. Which not to be a dick, but that's not progress. It's good to see kids taking interest in the styles that brought us up but I'd rather see them learn from those styles than bite them. Can2 & Bates are good examples of writers who learned from the old school and didn't just bite. Styles like Abstract graffiti are a progression. Whether you like it or not is irrelevant. It's a step forward. And syaing things like there's no letter structure is stupid. Same can be said about a million tradition style pieces in a hundred different countries. That being said, I will say, for myself, that I find it harder to do traditional style graffiti than my current style. And I grew up doing traditional graffiti in the early 80's and 90's. And I still have a hard time. I have the structure down but I just don't have the style. Maybe this is why I moved to something more artsy... I don't know for sure. That shouldn't matter though. What should matter is that I went in a direction and made sure I kept to tradition while doing so. And I would think that's all that matters. Being original. Not the best or most liked, but original. And if you know my name and you know my work when you see it... then I succeeded. And I got throw-ups too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mexorcist Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 I THINK YOU CAN DO WELL BALLANCED TRADITIONAL LETTERS WITH ORIGINAL CONNECTIONS AND ILL BREAKS,NOT EVERYBODY HAS THE IMAGINATION TO COME UP WITH DIFFERENT IDEAS.THATS JUST MY OPINION,IF PEOPLE WANT TO DO ABSTRACT STUFF MORE POWER TO THEM.
