Blu – World Graffiti & Urban Art

Brought to you by www.world-graffiti.com.

Pretty much everyone knows Blu’s art, but it’d be rude to try and do a graffiti art blog and not mention him.

Italian artist Blu combines an almost child-like and detailed drawing style with a mix of political messages. He uses a really nice mix of line drawing and colour too. Blu’s website is awesome and features a bunch of his wall mural animations and sketch drawings, done using a large scale stop-motion technique, they’re pretty mind-blowing.

In his book you can see a bunch of sketches too, it’s really a great book. Here is one of Blu’s video murals, Muto. It’s been around for ages and has been seen by a gazillion people and I still love it.

I really like is that the politics is mixed with humour and a wicked style.

New graffiti and urban art paintings/murals from 2008 and 2009 from Blu!

Cox18 Graffiti Art by Blu – Painted in Milan, Italy – check out the video of the art below being created.
