Saber Los Angeles River Painting

The city of Los Angeles shows their disrespect to their own history by buffing one the largest graffiti painting of all time. This particular painting was done by the graffiti writer Saber. The painting was created using rollers and it took Saber a year and a half to complete. Saber worked on it so long that he suffered a knee injury from standing on the slanted surface of the LA riverbed.

people in LA are dying of Air Pollution, smog (not DLX's dubstep crew event), noise pollution, and light pollution.

Lets waste tax money from a broken economy to clean up someting thats not harming anyone's health.

smart one Los Angeles.

tend to the fires and leave the street art alone.

:cry:

They would rather have a giant white block of paint instead of inspirational art done by an amazing artist? Pretty ignorant if you ask me...

Amsterdam prides their city's graffiti. I had been the very famous "gallery" and go to see the work of the famous Seen from the united states (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seen).

there used to be many legal spots to tag, but not sure anymore.

Yeah, sounds sensible if a pretty messy way to implement it. If communities want art on their walls they should be allowed to have art on their walls.
