Faire le Mur

I must applaud the efforts by LU at celebrating street art as art with their latest Faire le Mur exhibition now on.

I have however, one solitary problem with the exhibition and it is that many of the pieces selected by LU are unimaginative, have a repetitive nauseating palate and do very little to dispel the prejudice against street art as odious disfigurations and aggressive outrage.

There were a few pieces I liked:

But they still do not compare to the works of Banksy nor Shepherd Fairey. I'm still left asking: besides registering the artist's presence, what really is the message?
