Art In Abandoned Places

One of the things I love about abandoned buildings is the great works of art that individuals have left behind.  Most people don’t think of graffiti as art.  But it is!!  I don’t always like the location of graffiti…..for example I don’t like to see graffiti on buildings that are in use or on public structures like bridges.  And I don’t always like “tags” or junk graffiti, just like I don’t like stick figure drawings.  But a well-done graffiti painting can be amazing and is art.  Make no mistake…..it’s art!

So the next time you’re thinking about going to a gallery or museum to see some art, concern an abandoned building instead.  Believe me when I say, you’ll find art in these places.

By the way, I took this photo inside the abandoned Fisher Body Plant in Detroit Michigan.
