Moscow street art - the final upload

Last December I finally finished uploading all of my photos of graffiti and other "street art" from my years in Moscow. The final (for now) set contains nearly 900 photos, including stickers, stencils, scribbles, high art, political statements, etc., most of which date from late 2004 - mid-2005 and the summer of 2006. Only a few of them were ever uploaded to my now-dormant blog dedicated to such photos. These are some of my favorites, or at least the ones most readily identifiable as being именно from Moscow:

Street art from Russia's northern capital

Late last year, I finally uploaded the rest of my graffiti photos from St. Petersburg. The full set is here.

Budapest walls (and other surfaces) from last summer

I finally uploaded a couple of sets of photos from my time in Budapest last summer (at the awesome GVO summit). One of them contains graffiti from the city (samples below) and the other contains various city scenes.

Note the homeless person's bed (or convincing art installation, though given the amount of homeless people I saw there I'm pretty sure it was the real, depressing deal) in a pedestrian underpass in the last photo. I do realize this photoset isn't particularly on-topic for this blog - it's something I would have in the past posted at my Moscow Graffiti blog, but since that is pretty much dormant I'm posting it here.

Remembering Piter

I've added a few photos to my St. Petersburg photoset; this one is my favorite:

Graf that knocks you out!

I have uploaded a set of hundreds of photos of stickers, graffiti and other things one might call "street art" from Moscow. A few of them are already online here, and frighteningly this is still just a portion of the photos I have on my hard drive, but this is something of an effort to clear the backlog of photos I've long wanted to post from our years in Moscow. Dates are stamped on the photos by Flickr, most of these are probably from late 2004-2005. Locations are roughly in the area between Belorusskaya and Pushkinskaya along Tverskaya, except the last one, which was (if I recall correctly) on the wall of the Main Post Office building at Chistye Prudy.
