The painted train platform in Melbourne Central is a clear representation of the institutionalization of street art. Here we see the intersections of the government operated public sphere—transportation infrastructure—with independent street artists.…

The third stop on the tour takes us to an unexpected place for a piece such as this. The back wall of a Zagames restaurant serves as the home to this large piece done by members of KCD. The piece has an overwhelming sense of patriotism to it with the…
