David Lynch decries 'pathetic' arts funding cuts & graffiti, by Dr Plip on Mar 16, 2015 11:23:03 GMT 1, "Twin Peaks director calls for a championing of the arts, but says graffiti has ‘pretty much ruined the world’ at launch of his first Australian gallery show"
"Lynch became a household name as a director with a rare flair for surreal noir, showcased by his cult 1990s TV show Twin Peaks, but had his formative education as a painter. He revealed his distaste for graffiti, which he said had ruined the world.
Philadelphia, which he described as his “biggest inspiration” and a “very sick, corrupt, filthy fear-ridden city” when he went to art school there in the 1960s, was said to be the birthplace of graffiti, Lynch said.
“Graffiti to me has pretty much ruined the world. It’s ruined it for film. When you go to a place to film, everything is graffitied so if you don’t want it, you have to paint it out,” he said.
“So much great architecture is graffitied over, so many great train stations, factories, are graffitied over and it’s a horrible, horrible thing. Trees have gone away and graffiti has taken their place.” "

And the attention whore that Jonathan Jones is..
Graffiti is a pretentious subcultural backbeat that is replicated everywhere in much the same style, the same chunky lettering and coded messages. It is boring and expresses a generalised contempt for community, kindness, and the weak. How can leftists like this stuff?

I don't recall any street artist's walking around with a chainsaw in their bag, do they?

Zippin' up me boots
goin' back to me roots.
