We have previously talked about the culture of graffiti, which refers to the art that is carried out in public spaces, especially on walls, and that serves to convey ideas, raise awareness about social problems, or simply express personal tastes. In recent years, urban art has gained recognition and has achieved followers worldwide, and artists have begun to collaborate with local institutions and administrations, which seek to beautify their public spaces in this way.
And so we get to what brings us together today, then Marco one hundred (Beloz) and Emmanuel Gapi (Ekns), The second being someone we have already spoken of previously, They recently surprised with the details of a mural dedicated to the franchise of “Dandadan“ Like all the previous works of the artist, this art is located in Mexico City, which seems to be giving more and more permits for this type of art from the establishment of the Citizen Council of Mexico City.
It is certainly a fairly pleasant art to see, but unfortunately this culture is not exempt from “rotten apples.” Other graffiti artists feel the need to ruin this type of art for some reason. Some claim that it is “because those who make street art are considered 'sold' and are no longer part of the community”, or that street artists take advantage of decades of culture and tradition to try to steal what was created as graffiti and convert it In something else.
In summary, they describe it as a way of moving from “it is related to gangs and is an ugly scribble” to “is art and is beautiful”, when in essence the graffiti is exactly that, of evoking different emotions in different people. In the end it is still an interesting topic to discuss, but it will certainly be a penalty for most murals like this are lost by this ideology.
Meanwhile, Yukinobu tatsu Publish the manga of “Dandadan“Through the service Shonen Jump Plus of Shueisha Since April 2021.
