What WC Love About Street Art

By Piers Fawkes on September 26, 2006

WM$NA has a review of a very inspirational talk at the Conflux festival given by Marc & Sara Schiller of Wooster Collective about street art. WM$NA says:

The title of their talk was “What is it about street art that inspires us?” What inspires them has no particular set of rules nor well-defined criteria, it’s an “emotional thing.” The talk tried to break down the DNA of street art, without pretending to be a dogma or a text book, it’s just the gathering of their thinking of two persons who’ve been following and documenting very closely the street art scene since 2001.

Street art needs three critical ingredients, they argue:
1. Location, location, location
2. Surprise & delight
3. Have something to say
4. Personal & intimate
