Yoker



Yoker was here.

Outside the old grain elevators along Hiawatha Avenue in Minneapolis. Is there no end to the mindless tagging?

je ne sais pas ce que veux dire "yoker" mais j'aime beaucoup la texture de ta photo.
I do not know that want to tell "Yoker" but I like the texture of your photograph very much.

Nice Graffitti. Awesome monochrome shot!

You have some fantastic shots taken while I have been away for a while!

I'm rather in favour of "urban art", but of course against all this wild tagging!

Is this a European spelling Joker? Hah!

Another fine image. Yoker would be so happy to go worldwide.

Tagging is everywhere, but I think it adds something to these derelict buildings; nice lighting and texture to the walls.

No end to it. In want to know how do they get up there to tag the highway signs?

Good picture.

Every building is a canvas to the optimistic graffiti "artist".

These buildings must be practice canvas.... they work their way up to the more hardcore stuff later.

Tagging is so bad .. but I guess its a form of art albeit destructive

nice shot... lighting is awesome...

Nice b&w - great light. "Tagging" is just another form of vandalism by the stoopids who have nothing better to do!

James said...

Well you have taken an eye sore and turned it into art. This is great!

I'm going to let you off easy and not have a full blown rant about tagging. It's ruining Paris and everywhere else in between. Some of the urban art there I like as Peter said, but what you've got here is junk. Well I guess I had a mini rant without even trying! HA

This is superb, really good to see graffiti in monochrome for a change.
