Cinnamon Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Has anyone else seen this? Its on Sky Arts on Tuesday at 8ish, & is about the amazing street art of Julian Beever. He does the most amazing 3D pictures in chalk,on sidewalks, & its about how the picture developes,how he gets the 3D effect,& what happens when it rains I am not necessarily an 'arty' type,but its totally fascinating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Not sure if this is one of his,although I suspect it is,but this is the sort of art I am talking about..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I love the pavement art - they do look as if they are by him. Brilliant! - I'll try and catch the programme...... .....I wondered what happens to them if it rains....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Must Sky + that one. I remember a thread about his work a while ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackiepoppies Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Absolutely superb Never seen his work before, but wish I had. How can this be preserved for posterity? Jackiex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 I've seen his examples of his work before and it's stunning. What amazes me is the effort put into something that by it's very definition must be transient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted July 13, 2008 Author Share Posted July 13, 2008 Absolutely superb Never seen his work before, but wish I had. How can this be preserved for posterity? Jackiex Sadly,only by photographing it. He actually takes several days on each picture,covering it up with tarps & leaving it overnight - brave man!

pepe Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Fantastic! Going to try and remember to watch, wonder if you feel like you are going to fall in when you walk by Someone sent me an email with similar art, but on a ceiling, it was a smoking area and when you looked up, it looked like an open graveside and people were looking down on you six feet under Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
