Banksy graffiti in Melbourne
MAYBE READ THE ARTICLE FIRST
The thing I don’t understand with people treating street art like this is that was not it’s original purpose. Street art always evolves, comes and goes, its there then it disappears. Treating it like something sacred doesn’t that loose what you find it appealing in the first place? But one thing is for shore that it does bring it into the public eye and people are now paying more respect to this art form rather than just dismissing it as something that is a public nuisance.
Update : Check out what has now happened to this Street at this post.

From Old Film # 11
This is the last post for an on going series of pictures I recently found in a finished film that has been sitting in my old film SLR(Canon Eos 500) since 2006. In this film I found some street art pictures on there. I don't know exact location (most are from Melbourne CBD) of these and times but they were all taken around the 2006 mark. So lets go back in time. I've got about 10 of these pictures so you'll see them over the next 2 weeks.
