Le South Bronx n’est pas facile à vivre, mais ce qu’il inspire dépasse tout. Parfois choquant pour l’esprit ou les yeux, mais toujours vrai : le monde et les gens tels qu’ils sont.

"Phố cà phê đường tàu – nơi không chỉ bán cà phê, mà còn bán ký ức, trải nghiệm và một phần tâm hồn Hà Nội. Những góc nhỏ bình dị này đang níu giữ hồn cốt thủ đô, mang đến cho du khách hình ảnh rất riêng, rất đỗi thân quen.

Giữ một phố nhỏ, là giữ lại những giá trị văn hóa, những câu chuyện và tình cảm của người Hà Nội xưa và nay.

The Bright Side of the Streets

I have a good reason for photographing this perfectly ordinary scene. Over the years I’ve taken photos of men sitting on that electricity box, and this just adds to that collection.

First there was this photo of Liam Foley, an elderly man enjoying a cigarette. He passed away 2 months after that photo was taken. I was glad I could pass on that photo to his family.

Then a few years later, yet another photo of a man enjoying a cigarette.

And now, many years later, a photo of a man about to roll a cigarette.

I like what they did with the door and the mural. Lovely to see the colour there.

Street Art Around the World: 5 Amazing Hotspots You Need to Visit

Are you ready for a colorful adventure?

Today, we’re taking you on a vivid journey to explore the top 5 must-see street art hotspots around the world. Prepare to be amazed by the creativity and talent displayed in these urban masterpieces. And don’t forget to bookmark this article for your future travels!

1 Berlin, Germany: The Open-Air Gallery

First up, we have Berlin, a city that has transformed itself into an open-air gallery since the fall of the Berlin Wall. Stroll through the streets to discover a treasure trove of street art, from politically charged murals to whimsical creations.

Keep your eyes peeled for the East Side Gallery, a 1.3 km long section of the wall that boasts over 100 colorful paintings by artists from all around the globe.

Some example of street art from Berlin:

2 Melbourne, Australia: The Laneway Capital

Next, we’re jetting off to Melbourne, Australia’s vibrant laneway capital. Wander through the city’s narrow alleys to find an ever-changing canvas of graffiti and street art. Don’t miss the iconic Hosier Lane, a bustling hub of creativity where local and international artists leave their mark. And be sure to swing by AC/DC Lane, a tribute to the legendary rock band and a celebration of Melbourne’s music scene.

Some example of street art from Melbourne:

3 São Paulo, Brazil: The Birthplace of Pixação

Our next stop is São Paulo, Brazil, where you’ll encounter a unique form of graffiti known as “pixação.” This bold, angular style of lettering originated in the 1980s and has since become a symbol of the city’s vibrant street art culture. Head to the neighborhood of Vila Madalena to find the famous Batman Alley, a kaleidoscope of colorful murals that attract visitors from all over the world.

Some example of street art from São Paulo:

4 London, England: The Home of Banksy

No street art tour would be complete without a visit to London, the “home” of the elusive artist Banksy (born in Bristol). His provocative stenciled artworks can be found scattered throughout the city, often accompanied by thought-provoking messages.

While in town, also make sure to explore the Shoreditch district, a creative hub filled with quirky galleries, vibrant murals, and captivating graffiti.

Some example of street art from London:

5 New York City, USA: The Birthplace of Modern Graffiti

Last but not least, we arrive in New York City, the birthplace of modern graffiti. From the iconic 5Pointz (R.I.P) in Queens to the ever-evolving walls of the Bushwick Collective in Brooklyn, there’s no shortage of stunning street art to admire. Don’t forget to pay homage to the legendary Keith Haring, whose iconic Pop Shop once stood in Manhattan’s SoHo neighborhood.

My Dog Sighs: We’ve all sat and watched this hideous situation unfurl and while it’s not much, I wanted to do what I know best, (throwing paint) to highlight my sadness and anger over the Ukrainian invasion by Russia.
