# Michael Jackson Street Art Artsy Dedications to the King of Pop By Cowbag | Published 2009-06-29 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michael-jackson-street-art References: [cakeheadlovesevil](http://cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress.com/2009/06/28/jacko-street-art/) Oh, I love this collection of [street art and graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piranha-tank) honoring the late great Michael Jackson. It includes both [stencil work and paste-ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hubbabubbabuilding), and features art from all over the world. Banksy and Faile are among the artists featured. I think the biggest reason I like this series of Michael Jackson street art is because it allows me to think about Michael Jackson without looking at the cliche images we’ve all gotten used to seeing since his death. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/graffiti) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Street Art:** Street art continues to evolve as a platform for honoring pop culture icons and creating unique visual experiences. - **Graffiti:** Graffiti artists are using their skills to pay tribute to beloved celebrities and contribute to the urban art landscape. - **Global Art Community:** Artists from around the world are coming together to create diverse and multicultural works of art inspired by influential figures. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Art:** The art industry can embrace public art installations as a way to engage communities and commemorate iconic individuals. - **Tourism:** Cities with a vibrant street art scene can leverage it as a unique selling point to attract tourists and boost local economies. - **Entertainment:** Media and entertainment companies can collaborate with street artists to create visually captivating campaigns and promotions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tree-Integrated Mysterious Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tree-mural.md) - [American Artist Bag Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eastpak-launched.md) - [Artist-Inspired Dynamic Basketballs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/round21.md) - [Anniversary-Celebrating Arty Skateboard Decks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stevie-williams1.md) - [Statement Street Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1.md) - [Street Art Metaverses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frieze-los-angeles.md) - [Singer-Dedicated Streets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-bowie-street.md) - [Nostalgic Art-Inspired Postal Stamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usps-stamp.md) - [Collectable Singer-Honoring Coins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/george-michael-coin.md)
