Street Art

Street Art, Valparaiso, Chile
Street Art, Valparaiso, Chile

During my trip to Antarctica I spent a day in Santiago.  A group of us decided to hire a guide and small bus and we visited Valparaiso.  This is a small seaside town in Chile.  In almost all South American  cities graffiti is a problem like it was in the cities of the US back in the eighties.  To combat this in Valparaiso the city asked artists to create wall art and this kind of art as shown above is everywhere.  There are some amazing artworks all over the city.  It’s like walking around a museum except you are walking city streets.
