Grafitti Mustache

Designs We've Seen (a lot) Series: 04/20/11
Graffiti Mustache

More like graffiti we've seen a lot...

We love to draw goatees and mustaches on faces. We are ususally blindly "defacing" photos for fun, but Marcel Duchamp was trying to make an artisitc statement by "re-facing" the Mona Lisa in his work "L.H.O.O.Q."

Marcel Duchamp, Mona Lisa parody "LHOOQ" (1919), post card reproduction with added moustache, goatee and title in pencil (19.7 x 12.4 cm)
