\n\n\n\n
then I tried to meet nicolas. I couldn\u2019t reach him on the phone, but after our conversation yesterday, I had the feeling he\u2019d give his all to arrive at our rendezvous. I didn\u2019t really have any great expectations for our excursion. I was already very pleased with what I\u2019d seen, especially given the fact that I\u2019d come to shanghai so spontaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
nicolas actually arrived and had learned some useful information: on the outskirts of shanghai, at a university, there\u2019s supposedly some graffiti under a bridge. only it was very far away and it would already have been dark when we arrived. so we opted to stay in downtown shanghai and nicolas led me around to show me his take on \u201cgraffiti\u201d. however, this turned out to be classical paintings in shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
he wasn\u2019t really familiar with the type of graffiti I like and am looking for. so we forgot about the topic and walked for hours through shanghai\u2019s smaller neighborhoods and had a nice conversation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

we went there together and as chance would have it, dezio was out spraying. I talked to him briefly and got some interesting information: in a city of 20 million inhabitants, there are only about 20 sprayers out and about, which is why you hardly find any spontaneous street art. in china, graffiti is painted over or cleaned away pretty quickly. as long as you don\u2019t spray any political statements, graffiti is tolerated by the city officials, and artists won\u2019t encounter any problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
he gave me one last tip. Apparently, there is an active graffiti scene in the smaller cities of central china. something I can dream about for my next trip…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
