If it was art, it would not have morphed into scratchitti. one month agon the DOT cleaned off the graffiti (i.e. linear names with black spray paint) on the stone and concrete pillars of the Manhattan Bridge to celebrate the 100 year anniversery. God only knows the cost since chemicals needed to be used. The graffiti ("Art") reappeared withing two weeks.Last night I rode car 5018 home and "MAP" (Aka Patrick McCormick; look him up on Google, Type in Patrick McCormick MAP graffiti) and read on.... Was scratched into the stainless steel. It appeared that each letter was carved at least 5 or 6 times. This made the "MAP" tag very visible MAP is now in jail again. THat tag could have been there since 1986, 1996 or a month ago. MAP will get out of jail again but his tag will live on in car 5018 and so many others for another 20 years. MAP is 39 years old. Now suppose I carved a curse word or an anti-semetic or racist symbol or word, how long would it last? What would the TA do? |
