Blu in Barcelona - february 2009

[DilatedDnB]

In the Soviet Union this is exactly how people referred to capitalism: The Capitalist Shark... because it would just keep eating everything small in it's way with money... great job BLU!!! keep it up man!

[Nallukkaaa]

WTF IS THAT GUY DOING THERE AT 3:08 ?! FUCK HE'S CRREPY !!!

[DJLil2010]

The money shark made of dollar bills eating tourists.

[8u1fb]

porn sounds detected

[chukulukuTaylor69]

3:41 smartphone schleichwerbung

[MrFalconboy01]

wtf is it lol?

[jsnike57]

its like a whale that is also a lizard that is also a shark that is also a plane

[dumbo7101]

does anybody notice the very disturbing music in the backround 0_o

[tommyt1971]

Anyone know where this thing is? Street? More importantly, the intersection? Can't seem to track it down online...

[llomformatge]

La pintura no era del pesoe cazurros era del partido comunista de catalunya!

[Yougimpytube]

Why do they translate "Orca" as "Killer whale"?

Do english speaking people seriously not know what an Orca is?

[DanTheMan9867]

Its a loan shark :D

[Ultraviolentjunglist]

3:22 she's right

[eliichocolate]

Hahaha the people commenting is what makes this art... and they don't even know it.

[TruthSmack]

I believe the dollar bill is the worst spell cast upon humanity. It has blinded us to the truth and has corrupted our feelings for one another. All that needs to happen is that we develop faith and acceptance for our fellow earthlings. All we need do is stop playing the corrupt financial game and take care of one another. I see this potential in humanity as often as I see its destructive nature. Work out of love instead of fear. This is our last chance, so you decide. Will it be fear or love?

[bistekwan]

puto amo!

[Airhopovic]

i saw this painting in a movie called 'Biutiful' on the international film festival Rotterdam!

[Colinking853]

loan shark i dunno ha? but why the hell did people think its a whale when they say it had 3 fin thingys and not 2 fins and one small stump?

[Desalia2011]

I love it! i'm sure you'll like this stop motion:

ww.youtube.com/watch?v=2zbXtkh­J-70

[trezoney]

[YSynergyY]

if you see a man at 3:08 you will die in 7 days

[azxc49]

@YSynergyY

what if you skim thru it? will the person still die?

or is it comical?

im just asking, it got me by surprised.

[AdidasBoy711]

whoever pauses at 3:08 will mary him

[Fikki96]

I hate how everyone started singing

[carrionpvp]

wth is with the chick moaning in the background?

[WhiteTiger4200]

it looks like a shark when they painted it green it sorta looks like its made of dollars ...........just look at the U.S its a shark looking for money to spend.....

[kevinmrn]

Impressive!

[decillisphoto]

Ugly as F@# !!!

[suckympianist]

at 3:08 the person who stands there has down syndrome xP

no joke. pause it

[NRG2220]

i think i get the meaning behind the painting.....great job Blu

[305GhettoParaiso]

blu es un gran monstrooooooo!!!!!!!!!

[spigletson]

Blu you guys are amazing! your art is phenomonal

[celicsientaa]

aahhhhhhhhhhh batooooos lo que hacen esta conmadre! los contrataria para que pintaran mi cuarto hahaha pero son españoles vdd?

[llomformatge]

mejor el mural del PCC que la mierda que ha hecho este tio,artista de dos duros y medio, menuda guarrada! y luego a los grafiteros que se lo curran los multan no hay derecho!

[fegomur]

@llomformatge al PCC se lo ha comido el tiburón del capitalismo, a ellos y al PSOE-PSC.

[llomformatge]

menuda mierda  ya podrian haber dejado el antiguo mural del pcc! jejejejej.

[QueenofSadism]

Speechless.

[MrCheezzy]

is blu just one person or many

[Sexface3000]

LOAN SHARK!

[hendrixmay]

@petronovich30 I bet you're an american seeing your comment consists of utter cowdung

(no offense, but don't judge what you don't know)

[derrderr420]

@petronovich30

The monster of Capitalism swoops down to both cover and devour communism and socialism, I guess the contradiction is that the Giant monster of commerce is gaining sustenance from the crumbling and dilapidated remains of socialism??? IDK

[X87DV]

AHAHAHAH xD look at 3:08, he's there for about 0.5 sec, xD awesome

[Farbtopf2]

nice vid oh 9.mai was my birthday :P

[debshenley]

Fantastico! El tiburon.

[blacshairon]

I live in Carmelo (Barcelona) when I see it, I remember this video xD

[mEUI88]

wonderful!!! I saw this in barcellona!!

[meshumekha]

I know questions like this don't usually get answered, but how frequently were photos taken during this time-lapse?

[spectrumproduction]

eight

[jdmosaics]

wow we need more art like this to open up the minds of the ignorant!!

[gatoazul4321]

IMPRESIONANTE el trabajo de BLU, irreverencia!!!

[NandiniJT]

I think this is Blu's best politically inspired public work. The Spanish feelings on this issue are so raw, what with all the bloodshed and the modern socialists & the remaining communists blind faith in the obviously failed system that killed so many there. Great work! I love the people's observations, too. Will have to check it out the next time I'm in Barcelona!

[skiddni]

can you explain it for me?

im not too sure bout the meaning or the purpose of it.

[chrisdarroch]

Sound it VERY ANNOYING. Distracts one from enjoying the video. Should finish with closer and more square on views of the work.

[blacshairon]

@chrisdarroch I live in Carmelo, thinks that many people are old, and they are not very modernized, do not understand these things.

[TheMANright101]

hahahahah

[willy1986tralara]

que bueno... no solo la obra es genial, sino que han hecho un video genial a mitad del proceso

[ImStillJulieFrom]

miguel eres el mejor :))))

[Alexey16]

lol i wanna see the next part

[banficruz]

me gusta el audio, donde lo consigo??

[banficruz]

me encanta el trabajo de blU!!!!!!

[GanjaClown]

OMG! pause at 3:06 or someting. :O

[Seboolek]

3:08 ;D

[vekkth]

i liked the idea a lot, liked the movie but sound was horrible, too annoying for such a long video. rather surprised it was needed to put such a questionable sound in it.

[Greeneyeskater93]

money shark

[AngelaPlant666]

Please do some stuff in Bogotá -Colombia, it would be really cool!!!!

I love ur work!

[MileHighMayhem11]

i love the meaning to this yet they don't realize

[Shonn1022]

3:08 creepy stalker is watching you sleep.

[ABOM420]

lmfao listen to the commentary.

all the children are psyched and questiong it.

half the adults that lived through the countries troubles have no culture or pride left.

everything they say is about money or they wish it was an ad.

which is exactly what makes art artistic.

people stare at a painting and ignore the people around it.

when they in truth make up about %70 of the painting.

hence why he paints extrememly simple shapes.

like a child experimenting free thought.

new generation.

[lusia8a]

@ABOM420 point

[ABOM420]

"id like it better if it were an ad"

come live in america for more then 4 hours if want someone shoving what you should do down your throat.

but if you notice they mentioned "was it the socialist party?? or the communist party"

so like most of the world seems the heart and soul of their people is to wait in poverty for the shepards to rise.

must of have been alot of revolutions.

[huncomenter]

sory 3:05

[huncomenter]

lol 3:08

[makenziejill]

controversial...... contro-vers-i-a-l...haha

[Diuyt]

una ballena mierda que brutos es un tiburonnnn(a whale sh*t bunch of idiots its 's shark r u blind or what nobody understand artist

[Dries2DJM]

i think its about the politicians wasting the money of the people,

but it kinda stupid to show what they mean with wasting the money that they have.

[MuratGokhanYalciner]

you call it art?

my shit is better if i could shit in your brain..

[ABOM420]

You call that a creative insult??

if thats the sample of the extent of your creativity(which im guessin goes as far as an ordinary gray garden stone) than no thank you ill be looking at real art.

In the galleries of the street.

Ladies and Gentleman we have the Art crisis.

Too many bitches painting abstract bullshit and calling themselves the next davinchi.

Dont beleive the hype.

The words of the prophets are written on the subway walls and tenament halls.

-A*BOM-

[Sexi0Nerd21]

STFU!!! NO YOUR NOT!!! look at his other VIDS!!!

[threadatlas]

at least spell waste correctly.

[J4nk]

que puta mania de buscar sentido al arte!!!

[aleshamahon]

[santiagosojo]

En cual calle de Barcelona esta echo? Me gustaria visitarlo personalmente. Gracias en antemano por las respuestas! "Bomb It"

[CatootjeeKadootjee]

You've got to see MUTO! that animation movie of them.

I'm sorry, I can't speak Englisch very well xD

[riofuoco]

blu è un grande ... e se lo dico io ... che non sono un critico, ma uno che rimuove i graffiti ...

[springflowerchild]

This is what art is all about! bravo!

[GilletteWest1959]

Blu. Minneapolis needs you. Gillette.

[hazeynut]

I think it represents loan sharks and how it is affecting people...

[ShaveYourBoots]

if this where in a america i would asume that the shark represents the debt that america has to various countries...

why are those people so critical at first? you cant make a critique until its the finished product.

[Liface]

I like how the only American in the interview is the one wondering about the government permit!

[BlacklitFloater]

lol 2:20 to 2:27

[BlacklitFloater]

that is hella tight. I love that shark.

[bixby2000]

[99matate99]

esa puta niña q dice q:

los grafitis no gustan mucho

se puede ir a la mierda esa puta niña

[EmeraldineWolf]

Haha I love how one guy asked "Do you have a permit?" And yeah the comments were cool, I love how a lot of the people who said things put a lot of thought into their opinions instead of just saying something obvious.

[ghostwise]

i saw the photo of the finished work on the blog a few weeks ago so watching the video made sense.

the commentary was cool. i'm surprised no one said it was a shark around the end.

[woodlie]

i like it yeah yeah

wish itd been made colorful too

[exgiovanexgiovanex]

yes!!!! the commentary was really a great idea!

[LINEAGETUBE]
