Street Art Agrigento Documentary
From Beirut to the narrow streets of the centre of Agrigento, one of the oldest cities in Sicily (Italy). In this documentary we again look out for the local street art scene. In Agrigento, street art is located in two main hotspots near the streets of via Neve and via Vallicaldi. The art is still a bit raw, but with a clear effort to embellish the city.

Street Art Beirut Documentary
The street art scene of Beirut is probably the most sophisticated of the entire Middle East. Lebanon was torn by the civil war during the ’80s, when stencils and graffiti were used as propaganda by the various militias. Today the street art scene evolved, although social and political issues are still dominant in many murals. In this short documentary, we discover how some Lebanese artists are trying to use street art as a way to reunite.
Artists pictured in this video: Yazan Halwani, Ernesto Maranje, Jorge Gerada, C215, Into, Said Mahmoud, Karim Temerji, Ashekman.

Banksy’s Self-Destructing Painting
In a moment that caught the art world by surprise, Banksy’s Girl with Balloon self-destructed just as the final hammer signaled the end of an evening of auctions in London. The work sold for £1,042,000 ($1.4 million), tying the artist’s record in pounds at auction previously achieved in 2008.
The framed work, spray paint and acrylic on canvas, mounted on board depicted a girl reaching out toward a bright red, heart shaped balloon – one of Banksy’s most iconic images – began to pass through a shredder hidden in the frame.

Hobo Graffiti
Hobos, or tramps, were itinerant workers and wanderers who illegally hopped freight cars on the newly expanding railroad in the United States in the late 19th century. They used graffiti, also known as tramp writing, as a messaging system to tell their fellow travelers where they were and where they were going. Hobos would carve or draw their road persona, or moniker, on stationary objects near railroad tracks, like water towers and bridges.
