Found in my RSS Feeds: the The Eleventh of September. This site was first launched in 2006, went offline eventually, and was brought back online recently. “The Eleventh of September is a memorial by Tape Art. The artists created 490 drawings of life-sized figures using the temporary medium of tape. Each figure is dedicated to one person killed on September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center, […]

Clear Creek Courant: Bear-proof trash cans in Downtown Idaho Springs are alive with pictures of local history. “The trash cans in downtown Idaho Springs are barely recognizable, as such, following a city project to incorporate our history on an unlikely canvas….

🧵 1/2
Here is my "Unpopular on Mastodon" toot of the day.
I dislike Banksy.
Although I am often (not always) in sympathy with the messages his work conveys, these are often presented in a form that is dull, hectoring, or disagreeably sentimental -- what we might term radical twee.
The populist "you know what you like and it's not that museum stuff" current that has marked his career is uncomfortably close to the right wing cultural politics of which he imagines himself a leading opponent.
I also dislike graffiti in general. This Jonathan Jones article from a decade ago remains on point:
Please don't tell me that this symptom of urban blight is somehow "progressive". Instead of drooling over Robin Gunnigham's private organization...

Pop Art and Pocket Screens
Daniel Buren's wall at Tottenham Court Road does most of the work for you. It's fifty feet of saturated circles and diamonds, all bouncing off those merciless black-and-white stripes. I just had to wait. Two strangers soon obliged: he slumped against a blue diamond mid-text, and she tucked into a green circle taking what looked like a fairly stoic phone call. Neither registered the technicolour cathedral behind them, which is the bit I love. London's at its best when an artwork worth […] -

Cats have a special talent for taking over cities. Street artists clearly love them just as much as we do! This collection shows how many forms cat art can take in public spaces. We have gathered giant lifelike murals, glowing paste-ups, sculptures, stained glass, graffiti stickers, painted rocks, and snowy little interventions. Some of these cats hide in boxes. Others stretch across entire buildings. A few only need simple graffiti lines to steal the scene. Scroll through our ultimate cat […] -

A Sunlit Afternoon on the Wall
This is me standing on the old walls of Cork where I took this photo in Bishop Lucey Park yesterday afternoon. The sun had already started to head to the horizon and it wasn’t even 3pm, but it did light up the mural on the wall and placed the ground in front of me in shadow.
For many in Ireland, November is firmly in the winter months of the year. It seems to be a traditional Irish/Celtic thing because Met Éireann uses meteorological seasons which classify September, October and November as autumn.
