It isn’t just one tower. This vandalism is everywhere as soon as the construction site goes up they’re there vandalizing like an immediate cancerous, visual destructive elements. If you supported and enjoyed it and just simply laugh it off and call it art then maybe you should allow them to the face and vandalize, your home your apartment building maybe even your car if you’re OK with it and you think it’s beautifying art
i knew some graffiti artists in l.a. who are talented enough to be professional. but they didn't want to go to college, even community college. no one in their family went to college. they thought they wouldn't belong. most art professors don't care about background. they want to help artists have a career. my sister is an artist. college professors introduced her to gallery owners who host art shows.
That’s not a reason to not attend because you feel you may not belong. You’re giving into what they want you to feel. That is weak. I went to a fancy art school college. I didn’t belong didn’t care as I knew. I could do the work that they were doing all the affluent, rich kids, etc., and better And I did. Graffiti artist that enter the college, but when they do attend, these art schools and colleges, they encouraged to continue that path of being an urban artist ““. then I careful they’ll stay stuck in painting, murals, and doing probably really good work but nicked and marginalized instead of doing other things with her at advanced improved stages of development
If it's not your property, trespass on it, steal it, or vandalize it. If you want to do your art, then buy your own property and tag the whole thing up if you want, but if it's not yours, then you are breaking the law. If you want people to see your art, there are many ways to get it out there that would actually earn you money. Taggers like the one's painting the towers are out for the thrill of the act, which happens to be breaking the law.
Been waiting months for a story like this. I think the buildings look so cool! They should just leave it alone. Let people create art. We got so many other drama going on. Make rents affordable and stop wasting taxpayer money on cleaning up art that isn’t hurting anybody!
It hurts everybody. Because you see if you would think a little further than you do, what they are doing is vandalizing and facing property that is not theirs, as if they have a free pass to do so. The loss have been softened on vandalism that’s why it’s so widespread.it’s because they think of graffiti coming from would be oppressed neighborhoods, underserved neighborhoods. But a lot of these vandals come from actually affluent, middle-class and upper middle-class very clean suburban neighborhoods. And they come in and when you vandalize with graffiti whether you’re part of the community or outside of the community or even international Vandals, would you do is you affect the cost to fix and repair the damage done. That tower is only one of many, but just cleaning it up and spray painting it and removing all that the basement everywhere is gonna be incredibly costly and what that will do is that will prevent the building from being converted into low income, housing or government housing of some kind or restoring it for its original intent. That cost will be applied to raising rental rates and there’s a domino effect, including oppressing struggling neighborhoods that they say need defending, and that this is their art. It affects the economy. You just need to think a little further.
As a tax payer i prefer that hundreds of thousands of dollars goes towards rent control and building more low income housing and middle income housing! (People working regular jobs need to only pay 1/3 of their income towards rent too!) don’t care about graffiti let’s stop policing art and put the tax payer dollars to actually helping people!!!!! Imagine how many homeless people could have been housed if they just ignored this!!!!
I repeated here again let’s say they convert this tower into a low income apartment project. Do you know the cost and cleanup of not only the exterior but interior damage that these vandals have caused. Do you think that money just comes from nowhere that it’s easy just paint over it? That will prevent from being low income housing or like people have been saying, thoughtless people, I’ve been saying turn it into a homeless, housing project, etc. etc. It will raise rents. It will prevent that to happen and it will also affect the local economy, and the cost of insurance will go up. I mean it’s a domino effect. It’s not vandalism it’s purpose to destroy and hinder out of hatred for the corporate America land, developers, authority, etc. and it only helps or press the very people you think you’re helping.
You can’t even keep Target and Walgreens safe for shoppers and you’re worrying about some vacant buildings? Spending resources on that? Ridiculousness
You can’t blame Black folks this time
Yep, they all to busy bipping cars.

It’s art and adds personality. Hate it when it gets painted over.
Yes, the personality of a delinquent 16 year old. 😅
California education
Personality of a post apocalyptic hellscape
Maybe you will allow them to add personality to your house, home, car, neighborhood, apartment building, etc. etc.
If it’s not your property and you do not have the owner’s permission….it is vandalism!…in my opinion.
Right!🙄
It's trash, as are the vandals who do it.
What kind of question is that?? Its a full on crime to graffiti a building 🤷
But why
Leave the country littlebitxx .girlboy
It's a crime!😒💸👮♂🚔
To California, used needles and human feces on the streets is an art.
La is know for graffiti and homeless
Shout out to all the writers getting up.

No, it's not art...it is simply self-promotion and narssacistic. Tagging is not art.
Yeah..😒 it's bad and its not clean..🙄(fines and damages!)💸😟and jail time!😮💨
If it weren't a crime would it really be art?
The streets dictate what’s art.

The crime is the building being there in the first place and the city isn’t taking any accountability.. y’all just blaming people as a distraction
There were no ]-[£ÑT@1 drawings.
It can not be considered, _"Art"._
