The brewhouse ♥ Rabotniki

"In times where paid work is short and physical work is beeing taken over by machines, we want to celebrate the worker, the “dinosaur” of our time."
Have a look at these beautiful collages currently on the streets of Bangalore and Mumbai.

Street art: a state of affairs

In a country with a long history of mural advertising, rangoli, painted trucks and visual culture, it’s surprising that graffiti and street art are just starting to evolve - from declarations of love to visual concepts, from something very foreign to something very Indian. Bravo! The new Indian street art. 

We therefore roamed the streets of Delhi and canvassed the internet to find the coolest examples, from now and from before, by both foreign and Indian artists. Enjoy and if you do come across anything new don’t keep it to yourself.
