fatoe, point taken - but, the question wasn't "Who's your favorite street artist".
I'm an old man now, and haven't written in a long minute, but call me a purist if you will. Graffiti is bombing and piecing with spray paint. end of story. if you someone only puts up stickers or only stencils, how the they call themselves a writer?

(scroll down unitl you get to the "graffiti from pompeii" part)"Graffiti is important because it reveals what people really thought. It was written by the citizens of the city, not produced by the government. It was the uncensored account of what people actually thought. Some of the graffiti was written to shake up the public."

when i was travelling in europe on the way from Amsterdam to Copenhagen, we stopped briefly in this village. the buildings were obviously old, pre 18th century or something, but the fucking entire village was covered, i mean covered in graffiti. it was disgusting. nearly every building, churches, buses, train cars, everything was plastered in willy wonka/dr. seuss grafitti. it made me sad, i haven't viewed graff writing the same since.

hope i don't get beaten up here for daring to like this stuff when I don't do it myself but:
Love Req's photographic blowouts
http://www.req.net/artfront.htmAnd when I first started going out with my bf my favourite shirt of his had artwork by WK interact (are they really commercial? i don't really care) on it - we went to new york for a dirty weekend and turned the corner and there it was!
Also love mode2 (how couldn't I?) and even though it's not graf i guess, will barras' and mr jago's sketching styles make me very happy.
Still like robin banks banksy even if he is a master of publicity.
