Art in Transit

I found my fellow classmate’s blog post on bus ads compellingly relatable: also a one-and-a-half hour commuter student myself, I too share a certain fascination with public transit advertisement. Be that as it may, it is the norm for me to breeze past bus ads without so much as a sparing glance. I blame the run-of-the-mill ads so prominent in Vancouver. Thanks to the internet, I am able to see the artistic efforts dreamed up of ad agencies around the world. It would be nice to see a little more inspiration and pizzazz in our bus ads. I know it’d make my early morning commutes much more enjoyable.
