Well well well … Will you look at what and where Graffiti Art is going now. The White House!! It’s in the f’n White House.
I’m almost stunned. UK Prime Minister David Cameron apparently did an Art Swap (ART … not vandalism) with President Obama and gave him some Art from Graffiti Artist Eine!!
The piece from Eine (who I highlighted as one of the six best UK based G-Artists Other Than Banksy) was called “Twenty First Century City and is pretty typical of his style.
Obama gave Cameron a piece from Ed Ruscha called “Colum With Speed Lines” apparently because it had red white and blue in it (colors in the US and UK flags).
Sorry Obama (and Ed Ruscha), but Cameron and the UK Posse win this art swap.
I have a new respect of David Cameron now … or at least his wife, Samantha, who digs Eine’s works and apparently recommended his work.
Seriously. Give some props to Samantha. Politicians aren’t the smartest folks in the world … but for once, one of them made a good decision.
