Norwegian-styled Graffiti

September 23, 2008 - 67,733 views

This summer, the Norwegian government invited two well-known street artists by the names of Dolk and Pobel to turn abandoned warehouses and houses into something a bit more attractive. They took care of Lofoten, a district of Nordland in Norway. The art bears a striking similarity with Bansky. Nonetheless, here is some creative street art from Norway.

    Good artists, a little on the morbid and cynical side, especially with the child picking a poisonous, but pretty mushroom.

    these are fantastic! i wish more people in the u.s. were open to graffiti as an art form, then we could have strange and lovely things everywhere too.

    Do Norwegians really do that? That is totally cool, but it will be spooky at night when someone sees these Graffiti on walls.

    It isn’t like my work, who do you think we are?

    Amanita Muscaria are only poisonous in large doses. Moderate doses can be quite fun.

    Banksy is funnier but I do like that mushroom

    I get the painting on the outside of the abandoned houses…but the stuff on the inside of them doesn’t make sense…Why put that kind of effort for something that the vast majority of people just will not see? Pointless!

    Wow, these people really wish they were Banksy (if you dont know who he is and like graffiti you should look him up)
