American Center Street Painting Tour, Part 2 – India 2009

As part two of my India blog entries, this article focuses on the second phase of my trip, which was a 3D street painting workshop tour of prominent art colleges and universities throughout the country, sponsored generously by the American Center through the US Consulate in New Delhi.

The response there had been so great that the organizing body at IIT Kanpur decided to add the street painting component to their roster this year as well. (more…)

Street Painting as Public Art

I recently came across several blog articles focused on the use of street painting as a public art form – New Age Professionals, 3D / anamorphic work as related to fine art traditions, and Killing Denouement, which focuses on the hypothesis that street art steps into the realm of public art due to it’s inherent nature.  (more…)
