Robot Art

With the auto crisis hitting America, did you ever think that it might have an effect on an Autobot? What would an Autobot look like if he was laid off? Probably something like this....

Lucky for us there is no such thing as an Autobot...or is there? Any who this piece was created by Michael A. Salter, and his work is currently on display at the Rice Art Gallery at Rice University. Art and robots...what more can you ask from a guy. But hurry, the exhibit leaves December 14!!! So hurry and "Roll Out!"" ...that's a lil Autobot humor for ya.

Houston...we have art.




Art...the products of human creativity. Street art...Art for the public, created in public places with the aim of getting attention. The purpose of Street Art is to convey information. But some people think Street Art is Graffiti. But Graffiti can be Art too! Graffiti Art...highly expressive painting.

In my last art post I introduce you to Banksy, a London street artist. Well I found one right here, home, in the 2nd Ward of Houston. His name is "GONZO247" and he is a street artist too. He runs Aerosol Warfare, a group who are dedicated to show the talents of street artist across the nation. They have given rise to Texas street artist "Give Up".




Aerosol Warfare's new mission is to make Houston's East End District (my home) the next art pallet. So look out people, and look not in a negative perspective, but in "Aww". Art should be for every one, and not just only those who can have private access to it.
