Sometime earlier I promised to post some arty pics from Stockholm. Well yesterday I cycled to town and the weather was so wonderful that I ended up cycling about 30 kilometers!
Found some good stuff, mainly under bridges, and I found one of the birdhouses as well, all the others have gone.

There's some rather new stuff around as well, I hadn't seen these before

The deer is an old one, it's on the back of loads of traffic signs. The biggest I've seen was over a meter high.

that's some pretty great stuff. I wish I lived in a city with more stuff like that around. Gives it character.

those are awesome! i love street art.

a local artist/shirt designer (i own one of his designs and it rules) silkscreens stickers with a cat face on them and gives them out/sells them to all the indie kids and they put them all over the place. it's called Cat Cult, and it's huge. i see them everywhere.

Those are all "illegal" art work.

Want picture evidence!

I went to the Street-market yesterday as well, there was some awesome T-shirts (black skull with pig-tails), but she only had them in kid's sizes. She's gonna be there again in two weeks and she promised to make some in bigger sizes as well. I so want one!

i just looked online for some and couldn't find any. i'll see if i can snap a shot of one though, for sure! it's not worth buying the stickers at the local indie record store though. they're like 5 bucks. the guy gives them out free!

These are very famous in Munich, but I didn't take the picture.

in a world where we're constantly overwhelmed by advertiments no one wants, it seems tragic that pieces with artistic merit are written off as vandalism.

i like street art, cool thread.
