ENDOGENOUS ART FORMS - Graffiti Art

ENDOGENOUS ART FORMS - Graffiti Art
Some art forms do not require the mechanisms of external guidance. They managed to do well without the curators, critics, collectors and the like. Both these forms require special accommodations. This art of self-involved with life in the energy that comes from an unbridled enthusiasm for the artists themselves. Involvement is the key word. This term refers to the philosophy of authentic existence, which implies the involvement of the existence of the elements in the opposite dichotomy - existence through an institutional placement in accordance with certain conditions.
One can argue that the extent to which external conditions determine what art reaches the level of art in terms of lack of self-determination. Art form in my mind growing up and even though their condition. Moreover, they often are in the same condition was contrary to what they. Consider the situation of art subject to the rules of what is called "image pollution" of public space. From the legal standpoint, there is no art possible in this bureaucratic framework. However, it is. It's everywhere. I spent several days exploring this phenomenon - the art of perpetuating themselves. Found in New York City you do not have to Indiana Jones. If you're lazy, you just walk in 12 streets in the East Village to reach the Open Road Park - a popular site among skateboardists. The Open Road Park fenced on all sides by high walls. The wall is what makes the park so attractive to street artists.

If you are less inert, you take a subway train across the East River to Long Island City, get off at the 45th Rd./Courthouse Square and ask someone for the direction to 5 POINTZ – it is around one of the corners. There with your eyeballs rolling you will witness how wild the endogenous art can grow. On the entire block that contains what once used to be an industrial complex, you will have hard time finding a spot to insert your tag without slashing a piece. Hard time as it was, I found one – a heaven spot. “Tag” is a stylized signature; to “slash” is to tag over another’s graffiti and to go over it is considered a deep insult; “piece” is a large and labor-intensive graffiti painting; “heaven spot” is a hard-to-reach place such as rooftop. I am getting there… And you wait for an update, if I manage to keep my bones together.
