KEEP AUSTRALIA COLOURFUL

[**please circulate this message as widely as possible**]

On May 15, Keep Australia Beautiful is teaming up with the NSW State Government for their second 'Graffiti Action Day'. Their aim is to mobilise volunteers all over the state to paint over as much graffiti as they can.

On the same day, we urge you to join us and take a stand on behalf of Graffiti and Street Art as valuable forms of art and culture. The government wants to 'Keep Australia Beautiful' by painting our streets, lanes and public spaces various shades of beige - but we want to Keep Australia Colourful! Let's show people how great our cities could look if there were more places for artists to create pieces legally.


If you want to join us, here's what to do...


Graffiti/Street Artists: find a space, and make it look colouful on May 15.

Whatever you decide to paint, poster, stencil, knit, sticker ... be sure to include a reference to Keep Australia Colourful in your piece. Yes, people ... you can put aside your ego for one day and join the KAC crew, we know you can do it!! :-) Of course, we are not encouraging you to do anything illegal! Then, upload your flicks on our website or add them to the fb page:

If you can tell us where you are going to be painting beforehand, even better - we can plug your session on the website/facebook too. And if you want to be available for media comment on the day, send us your details, and we will add them to our press release.



Graffit/Street Art Lovers: write a letter to your local council, and/or to the NSW Attorney General Greg Smith (office@smith.minister.nsw.gov.au), telling them why you love graffiti and street art and why you want to see more of it.

Genius at work..


Old bud dropped the buff right before my eyes this morning.
I heard that familiar crashing noise and looked up to see this
and a dozen random commuters disgusted at the thought of
their trousers coppin a stray splash of white paint..
I wasn't game enough to get any closer for flicks cause
old bud was absolutely spewin...

NYC MOP


The "Old School Style" New York City Graffiti Mop©. Built to last and to bomb
on any surface. The drips are incredible and the nib is over 1 inch wide!


It is better than any fake shoe polish applicator that will fall apart after one or
two tags, like a kiwi shoe polish "mop" or the "mops" that have that cheap
round foam rubber/sponge nib, those type of "mops" are jokes and are made
for toys.
The nib is made from the toughest softest felt, for maximum ink absorption
and flow. If you are a serious graffiti bomber that likes to use ink, have drips
and wide tags, then this is IT!
All the NYC "Bombing" Mops© are exactly the same, hand crafted with the
same high quality "Super Tough" felt strip for the nib for maximum durability.
This marker will last a very long time if you use it correctly, nothing can
compare to the high quality and durability of this product.
You can fill the NYC MOP© up with some Garvey, Marsh, Grog, Oink,
Do Em Dirty, etc; (or your favorite ink) and your tags will drip like crazy!
You can control the drips based on the way you hold the mop:)

Warning!!! The NYC MOP can be copied and it may look the same.
But, it will never be as good as the original. Anyone can get the housing for a
homemade marker. But, it is the nib that actually makes a marker and if you
don't have the right materials, then you will not get good results.
Beware of the imitators!

Banksy Says It All...

“ “People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you. You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity. Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head. You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.” BANKSY ”
