We looked through many street art blogs. We decided to select three that, in our highly educated opinion, represented different "levels" of art blogging. WebUrbanist is formatted like an entertainment blog, with multiple categories, one being a sub-blog in street art. Colossal is subject-specific blog centered on street art. The last blog is the personal blog of Phlegm, a street artist from England, and is essentially a personal showcase of his work.
After becoming indisputably enlightened street-art-blog scholars, we picked three posts (one from each) to highlight. We'll explain why in class, but if you guess the reason before then we'll stop talking bad about you behind your back.
1) The Ultimate Guide to Banksy from Web Urbanist
2) Article about a small gallery instillation from Colossal
3) Phlegm's first blog post
Here are some questions to think about while formulating the thought provoking comments you'll be making during our Q & A portion.
- Do you regularly read any art blogs? If so, how do they compare to these?
- How did the layout of these blogs seem different or similar to the blogs you've been following personally or for the class?
- What are "bad things" about these blogs, or what, from our studies, are they doing poorly?
