This past Saturday was the first graffiti contest in Oaxaca. Scheduled to start at 10 am, Sebastian and his father went up to the plaza where it was taking place about noon, to find little action.
I went by about 4:30 and works were still in progress.
Sebastian (and I, as well) were a bit disappointed- the "graffiti" was on large canvases,not the walls. Hence followed the cliched "discussion" between Fernando and I about graffiti no longer being graffiti once it's off the walls and on canvas,in galleries (isn't that so 80's?).
Sebastian thinks they didn't advertise enough.
