This film is great, with graffiti removal now one of the most fascinating art movements of the 21st century. What makes this more interesting is the artist is totally unaware and unconscious of the creative production which stems from roots in abstract expressionism, minimalism, Russian constructivism. Thanks to Mare139 for bringing this to our attention, although the film was made in 2002 still very impressive and a must see if you haven’t.

WebUrbanist has an interesting write up of Matt McCormick’s film The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal. Although a few years old it can still be found on the Best of Resfest Vol. 3. The short film brings up the interesting concept that one can find art in the painting over of graffiti done by local authorities. Whether you agree with this concept or not its an interesting idea to keep in mind when walking around a city. Recently there is also a group on Flickr that has been documenting these kind of “art” pieces in different cities.
