Mapping Urban Art

May 26, 2010

Baltimore-based street artist Gaia has created a Google Map of all his spots on the street of Maryland’s largest city [buffed (in red) & running (in blue)]. It’s a fascinating record which will probably have incredible art historical value for future writers, historians, and researchers — and the fanboys will love it too. I, for one, am glad he is doing this.

Cool concept to see this work evolve…really underscores how street art is constantly changing…and why it is so fresh (because it is always changing).
