Oak Oak Street Art

JonTerry — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 13:00:09 +0000

We love Oak Oak. This what we think of as “pure” street art: modifying existing items in the street through one individual’s own creativity to create something funny that makes viewers smile..

Paris Murals

One of the team saw this lovely piece in Paris. The photos are in context, but old so viewers are looking back in time.

Simple street art that really jumps out.

Grand Piano

Why I didn’t post this when it came out in the news is beyond me, as we thought this was world class.

Stick a grand piano somewhere completely mental and generate millions of views worldwide. The best bit is that it was an effort by a young guy to get into art school. Surely he deserves a scholarship?

A very simple, but clever idea. Experimental poetry I guess.

What a great use for chewing gum: put it on a poster to vote for either candidate. Old school but clever.

Streetartview

Yes Red Bull are a client, but this is a fantastic resource which displays street art pieces via Google Street View around the world. It’s a permanent database, so even if pieces go, the reference stays online. Great work.

Landscape Art

Wasn’t sure what to call this post at first, but we love it.

Pencil Art

This is crazy: the guy makes sculptures out of pencil tips. Imagine how painstaking this must be!
