Art


Came across this "work" today on my lunchtime walk, it was on the side of a building in the town. It made me think of a debate I saw on a TV program the other day about graffiti. The presenter was interviewing some people about city centre wall paintings (aka graffiti) the question on the table was "is it graffiti or is it art?" my response was another question, i.e. "is that question a false dichotomy?". One man's graffiti is another man's art; art must be something that's in the eye of the beholder and can therefore be both, surely? (anyway, still not sure what the pink pigeon is supposed to represent)
