Erik displays some of the art collection by The Shifted Librarian.listening to music in the pod by The Shifted Librarian.

These cool dudes (Yes, they are librarians) were in Perth recently showing us their beautiful new library.  They had my colleagues sallivating at the thought of bright funky surrounds, music pods and an art library. Check out a slideshow of their workplace at Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/shifted/2341586263/in/set-72157604142377648/

Reverse Graffiti: Activist Art Extraordinaire

Filed under: Uncategorized — Dave @ 9:55 pm

Alexandre Orion is another prominent reverse graffiti artist-environmental activist.According to Environmental Graffiti’s Linda McCormick, A few years ago he adorned a transport tunnel in Sao Paolo with a mural consisting of a series of skulls to remind drivers of the detrimental impact their emissions have on the planet. The Brazilian authorities were incensed but couldn’t actually charge him with anything so they instead cleaned the tunnel. At first they cleaned only the parts Alexandre had cleared but after the artist switched to the opposite wall they had to clean that too. In the end, the authorities decided to wash every tunnel in the city.
