Revolutionary Graffiti

At the National University of Colombia, the "Nacho" in Bogotá, every year the campus of white paint and say it is sometimes called "white city" but a curious thing to note is that while all years are also painted several murals with the same theme, revolution, and they can watch the figures already well known (Che Guevara, Marx, Martí, Camilo Torres, etc..) and protests against capitalism, all this is already has become a tradition.

Chapina version, so to speak, would be the Pontificia Universidad de San Carlos de Guatemala, where most of the buildings are painted with similar themed, although some still in process of painting and others who have already been painted for years and still pleasing to the eye.

Even here there are painted white buildings to be re-painted, nice to see that this form of graffiti has become in some way something that identifies any national university in all of Latin America, in Colombia do this since the late sixties.
