Notable original contemporary Graffiti artworks
Without a doubt, graffiti has revolutionized the contemporary art world. Here are some of the most iconic graffiti artworks that have left a lasting impression.
First off, we have "Balloon Girl" by Banksy, created in 2002. This stencil artwork depicts a young girl reaching for a heart-shaped balloon, symbolizing the fleeting nature of love and innocence. Banksy’s witty and thought-provoking message has made this piece a global phenomenon.
Next, we have "The Wall" by Blu, created in 2007. This massive mural spans over 300 meters and features a series of animated characters interacting with the wall. The piece comments on the human relationship with our urban environment, and the ways in which we shape and are shaped by our surroundings.
Another iconic piece is "Mona Lisa with Bazooka" by Banksy, created in 2007. This subversive take on Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece features the Mona Lisa holding a rocket launcher, suggesting a violent and anarchic overthrow of traditional art and societal norms.
Finally, we have "Futura 2000" by Futura 2000, created in 1982. This abstract piece features bold, sweeping lines and vibrant colors, showcasing the artist’s innovative approach to graffiti. Futura 2000’s pioneering style helped to lay the foundation for modern street art as we know it today.
