Paris Truck Art
The curbs alongside each market place/flea market in Paris are lined up with trucks, all graffiti-styled! The styles range from haphazard tags to fine pieces like this one.
First Stop in Paris
Soon after arriving in Paris, we headed off to the exhibit "Ne Dans La Rue" ("Born in the Streets") at the Foundation Cartier. The exhibit was a wonderful tribute to NYC graffiti, as it celebrated the birth of graffiti in NYC and its evolution to a significant global movement. From an aesthetic perspective -- as well as from a socio-cultural, historic, one -- the exhibit was exceptional. I haven't seen anything of this calibre in NYC.
