When I went to 5 Pointz, I saw this wonderful work of graffiti. I really like the original painting; Vincent van Gogh used oil on canvas to make this painting and I thought it was interesting how someone decided to use graffiti to imitate this painting. It was really cool because I only got to see the painting online, and when I went to 5 pointz, I was able to see it cover a whole wall, even though the two pieces of art are not exactly the same. Comparing the painting with this graffiti art, we see that the artist was trying to imitate the brush strokes that van Gogh made, which is why we see the streaks so clearly. The artist also drew Vincent van Gogh and a bunch of letters on the wall, but I couldn’t quite decipher and undertstand what the letters say. All I could read from the pictures were “Panic xmen….” Perhaps that is what the artist(s) go by. Anyways, I just really liked how this combines modern graffiti art with post-impressionist art.
