Kev Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 So I was driving through the neighborhood yesterday and spotted this vintage woodframed window with one pane broken on the curb. My first thought was the Broken Window Theory, the old criminology theory that disrepair leads to increased vandalism. So I took that idea and started this project. Each day for a week, I do a quick and 'toy' throwup on the back side of the window, being careful to tape off the broken pane. Then I hit the piece with carb cleaner (remover), letting the piece before it 'leak' through. At the end of the week, you should be able to see pieces of seven different throw-ups peeking through and one 'clean' broken window pane. The end result is a statement on the life cycle of graffiti, how society goes after the art, but never fixes the "broken window", whatever that happens to be; Phase 1: Phase 2: Phase 3: JAllen, irezumi and SStu 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1446-art-thread/?page=7#findComment-44968 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Reminds me a lot work one of my friends makes. Keep it up. I clicked back and found Adam's windows- is he using paint markers, too? Working backwards on glass is a trip. I've been digging the stuff SABER has been doing, too: Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1446-art-thread/?page=7#findComment-44973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
irezumi Posted September 10, 2012 Author Share Posted September 10, 2012 I clicked back and found Adam's windows- is he using paint markers, too? Yes, and he has a better supply & collection of paint markers than most art stores have in stock at any given time haha.

Kev Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Thanks @irezumi ! This one has been a real departure from what I've done in the past; it's really opening me up to trying bigger, less figurative things and getting heavier into aerosol painting.

irezumi Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 Finally snagged one of Panhandles paintings! These don't last long before they get swooped up, sometimes as fast as 15 minutes after he posts it on FB.

Graeme Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 \-_-/ = modern art (according to a generation of idiots raised on the internet) I have a former neighbour who seems to be doing pretty well for himself--if you count gallery showings, publications, etc., as an indicator of "doing pretty well"--doing exactly that and calling it art. Doesn't mean that it isn't complete and utter flash-in-the-pan garbage though.
