Glasgow pioneers Graffuturism...


Morten Anderson (Denmark/Berlin) working on his Chambre 69 Mural.

Curated by Mark Lyken, this weekend's groundbreaking "Rudimentary Perfection" Graffuturism exhibition at Recoat Gallery was a phenomenal success. It saw Glasgow play host to ten international graffiti artists - and they've left us some spectacular souvenirs which you can discover using this map.

Here are my pictures (* denotes where each artist painted in Glasgow).
