Street Art

Artist: Banksy
Street art location: Israeli West Bank Barrier
I liked this street art because it's simple and clear. It's like a traffic sign which you must to see and obey.
It's located in Israeli and it put into words thought of Israeli people.


 
Artist: Isaac Cordal
Location: Brussels, Belgium. (2010)

When I first saw it, it reminded me people in the book "1984" by George Orwell.
I think it's a very good street art because it represents todays work life.

Artist: Kurt Perschke

Propaganda Poster


This propaganda poster published by United States Navy during World War I which calls men to the navy.
First you will see the girl smiling like a child and her wish to be a man. It shows women weak and emphasizes masculinity and need of men in the navy. Moreover the words "Gee","a man" and "I'd" are underlined. At the bottom of picture there is the command: "Be a man and do it." Being a man is represented as joining to the navy.
The word "navy" is bigger than others because of its importance.
On the right sleeve of the girl uniform there is a rating badge which encourages people to join the navy. This rating badge has a pretty good rate. It isn't for recruits. (Badges always reminds me games in which you accomplish the missions to earn achievements. If only life could be so easy like a game.)
