FINTAN SWITZER "SILVER INHERITANCE"
There are no doubt many reasons for Street Art's rise in popularity, its humour, its play on advertising, the taking back of public space, the pop art and the politics, the community spirit and the perceived breaking of the Museum/Gallery/Dealer combine etc etc. All of this and much more. But really, in reality, it's just that there are some pretty incredible artists out there putting work on the street. One strand of Street Art is forging a new figurative art, breathing life into the old dog once again. And Fintan Switzer, who some of may remember from his "Adam" piece, seems determined to be up there amongst the best.
