Río Piedras
I decided not to make all entries in this journal from now on friends only because... it's all mostly crap anyway.

These are some pictures I took with [info]dead_eifersucht on Monday of some of the "street art" around the libraries in Río Piedras.
I use quotations because some of the libraries, I suppose, asked artists to draw paint whatever on them because apparently, the walls are more respected that way by other graffiti artists and vandals.

I really like (artistic) graffiti and wish I could take photos, but most of the time when I see some I like, I'm inside a moving vehicle and can't take proper pictures.
I had some photos from UPR graffiti when the theater was still being reconstructed, and even some as it was being painted and drawn on with sharpies.

Anyway, here's a few.

Weirdo bear in the hallway between Librería Mágica and Econolibros.

There's girls on all sides of this building, I couldn't photograph them all.

This one is actually from 2005 or so, when my old camera was dying.
It was on one of the boards covering the construction site near the theater. It was quickly painted over.

I also took pics of Sofia's art (the girls on the buildings) but I forgot to post them along with the cherry blossom pics on my entry tehehe. EL arte de ella esta muy brutal, me encantaba el mural de camino hacia el viejo SJ pero lo kitaron y no le pude sacar fotos T_T

AAh!
Recuerdo haber leido algo que escribiste de querer vivir ahi!

Por eso me gusta el concepto del street art, porque es efimero... pero a la vez es un badtrip cuando le pintan encima.

No sabia de Sofia!
