You are talking about 2 different street artists. Ben Wilson decorates chewing gum that he has found mashed into the pavement. He has done a couple of beautiful ones outside 265 Lordship Lane, the 'ArtHouse' - soon to be demolished. One is a depiction of the ArtHouse with the words 'good bye' The gum outside Mrs Robinson he did on that Saturday when the shop had a live woman in their shop window acting Mrs Robinson from The Graduate. The gum is a representation of the shop window then! He is incredibly clever. He has got nearer to Dulwich Picture Gallery than any of the other artists participating in Baroque the Streets, painting a piece on the stone walkway up to the main entrance. That is a copy of Judgement of Paris and shows Paris judging the beauty contest between Aphrodite, Hera and Athena.

The small paste-ups with shadows are by Pablo Delgado, DOV article here.http://dulwichonview.org.uk/2013/05/03/baroque-the-streets-pablo-delgado/ They all relate to DPG paintings- generally a witty mash-up.


Having been the co-organiser of this street art, Im soooooooooooo pleased that the response has been positive!

    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.   
    • Totally agree with you.  🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
