Art is Free

Bogotá wasn't our favorite stop in Colombia, but we LOVED the street art. I've never seen such gorgeous graffiti.(Kate took at least half the photos in this post.)These ubiquitous political stencils are incredibly effective, are they not? (A little more information here, along with more photos.)The irreverent ones made us smile:On the tops of buildings you can see the "green men," who are made of papier-mâché. Sierra said they were installed about twenty years ago. It's amazing they're still in such good condition! (The clown above was our favorite.)And another green man:Looking back over our photos now, this one is definitely my favorite.
