Brussels bulldogs



©FourBees graffiti gallery Nov2007

For fans of Brussels graffiti, here's another picture from Anderlecht. I'm sorry I can't post more at the moment, I'm SO busy writing a guide book (about Romania) that every waking moment is devoted to typing.
However, during the last couple of days the weather in Brussels was so glorious that I just had to take advantage of it - for who knows when we shall see the sun again?? - and jog off to Anderlecht's beautiful Neerpede Park to feed the ducks.
The graffiti lads obviously had the same idea as the waste land under the ring road was occupied by half a dozen artists in hoods and anti-paint-fume face masks, resembling urban guerrillas armed with aerosols.
However, as their artwork reveals, most of them are sensitive souls...
I'm trying to get up my nerve to ask one of them to come and decorate my bureau wall with a giant mural.
However, one lad was painting a pair of large-breasted sci-fi maidens indulging in a little frisky sci-fi frolicking, and I'm not sure that's quite what I want. How would I explain that one to the landlord??
Anderlecht's graffiti genii definitely have a thing about dogs, they appear to be quite a common theme.
This one looks pretty terrifying.

I think it's disappointing that some other graffiti artist felt the urge to scribble over this beautiful portrait. The squirly bits are quite pretty, though.

Brussels graffiti art



There is an open-air art gallery found under the ring-road just south of Anderlecht's beautiful pond-filled park.
A couple of Sundays ago, it appeared that the Anderlecht local council had given the talented young artists of the commune permission to decorate the concrete columns that support the interminable ring road traffic.
Graffiti artists of all genres, but usually the sci-fi horror comic brand, were busily spray painting the columns and covering the dreary grey with a flurry of colour and imagination. Unfortunately, the least talented graffiti 'artists', the uninspired taggers had also been out, doing the equivalent of a dog urinating on a bush, and had marked their territory all over the interesting art work.
Also, after we had been on a hike to a Flemish windmill, just south of Anderlecht, we returned to discover that the painting of Tupac - well I think it's supposed to be him - had disappeared, covered up by a large breasted sci-fi maiden in a Gothic Martian porno fantasy pic.
Pity.
