If You Thought Artists…

writing or drawing on walls is art (the good graffiti); it is apparently vandalism. Here is the Art in America Yoshitomo Nara story. I guess one should stick to what the Starn brothers are doing at another subway stop in NYC as shown on Cool Hunting.

I am wondering about the Art in America story. Mostly how I have not seen it on Artnet or Artforum dot com in comparison to the press Shepard Fairey received, especially as the latter has been arrested numerous times. I guess it is an object lesson in populism and fame and not an art story.
