Art, art everywhere!

[horseplay]

Art seems to be appearing up all over ED. The two gentlemen boxers by the EDT are stunning! And there are lots of little pieces popping up around fire hydrant markers etc. And then there are the mushrooms on top of Mrs Robsinsons and Franklins Farm Shop...

There's a house on Lordship Lane up by Heber Road that has been completely covered in art - I suspect they're responsible. Does anyone know more?

I've since been sent this link, which explains a lot!

What's that on the upper side of the Victoria on Bellenden? Can't work out if it's a giant sewer rat or a malnourished lurcher or . . .

Or, as our window cleaner told us this morning, "wanksies".

We saw a great new mural in the playground of ED community centre this morning. It somehow looks like it's always been there.

New marketing campaign for the Victoria?

"Pub with 'the rat having a poo'."

Funny how two people can see completely different things...

I see a nice public artwork for all to enjoy.

You see a rat having a poo.

Says a lot about you don't you think.

Is this just a way to rachet up the argument..?

It's a greyhound. I think it's pretty cool!

Rat having a poo? hilarious, I like that one! It's a howling werewolf and is done by Belgium, (Gent to be precise) artist Roa, who has several other pieces in the Peckham vicinity, around london, UK and worldwide.

As the pub is run by the same guy who owns the Bishop in East Dulwich, along with many other fine establishments and the former having a mural by local artist Remi/Rough and US artist Augustine Kofie I imagine and personally hope it will be a permanent fixture.
