Art Of The State
Visit the Art of the State art blog.
The Art Of The State has covered Street Art since well before it came to enjoy its current levels of mainstream popularity. The site is comprised of snippets of interesting information, mixed with a steady stream of photographs of the best street art London has to offer (and occasionally from other locations).
As you might expect, this blog is proud not to take itself too seriously. That is not to say that Cotton goes about his work in a casual way: It must take a lot of work to maintain the output Cotton consistently produces. The photos are great, and the information given is to-the-point helpful.
For those that are wanting to get some inspiration or enjoy the work of others this is a good place to start. Cotton is dedicated to the whole urban culture, which is a necessity to run this kind of site. His passion results in a good representation of what is going on in this particular art scene.
