street art in seoul

Sunday, December 14th, 2008

i was suprised that there wasn’t really any graffiti in seoul, especially for a city of 10,000,000 people.  and seoul is a pretty clean city, no trash anywhere.  i did see some graffiti and street art though, mostly around Hongdae and Sinchon.  Hongdae University is a big art school in Seoul and every Saturday, students sell their art and fashion stuff in a small park near the campus.  it’s called Free Market, and apparently they sell cool stuff.  i wouldn’t know because they day i went to Free Market, it was raining and no one was selling anything.  well, here are some street art pics from Hongdae and Sinchon.

stencils seem to be big there.  here are a few.

this is not really street art.  i saw this at a stand for a portrait artist.  i thought it was weird to be selling a portrait of hitler, and weirder to put it next to a portrait of the pope.
