"Word of mouth is key to the movement’s success, Pure Evil says: ‘Street
artists are more aware of the art marketplace now. But it’s seeing what
everyone else is doing that makes you want to step up your act. We’re
not doing it to be accepted by galleries but by our peers. Street art
doesn’t rely on reviews; there are no tastemakers.’ Instead, he says,
the internet is best for spreading the word: ‘If someone does something
brilliant in São Paulo you can see it days later in London.’" –– Time Out London
