Street Art Graffiti Shadows

• Bristol, England is part of a vibrant street art scene, due in part to the success of Banksy.
• Buenos Aires, Argentina is very active in street art, presenting major murals everywhere in the city. A fundamental difference with the scene in Buenos Aires is the implicit co-operation of the police, who rarely hassle artists. Some companies offer tours to explore the different street art in the city and learn more about the artists and their work.
• London, England has become one of the most pro-graffiti cities in the world. Although officially condemned and heavily enforced, street art has a huge following and in many ways is embraced by the public.
• Melbourne, Australia is home to one of the world's most active and diverse street art cultures and is home to pioneers in the stencil medium. Street artists such as Blek le Rat and Banksy often exhibited works on Melbourne's streets in the 2000s. Works are supported and preserved by local councils. Key locations within the city include Brunswick, Carlton, Fitzroy, Northcote, and the city centre including the famous Hosier Lane.
