Gustav Mahler. Composer, conductor, graffiti artist?
I first read about this online, saw it on Alex Ross’ blog, Torontoist.com and am frankly quite curious about the whole thing. I don’t know what this graffiti is supposed to represent, if it is in fact supposed to say something about Mahler, or if it is just a mindless joke.
What is this all about? What does it mean to you? Is it just vandalism or
is this person trying to say something? Any thoughts?
As a side note, I found a really interesting contextual historical timeline of what was going on in the world while Mahler was composing. Check it out.

Maybe Mahler's music is what a certain gang in Toronto listens to. Or there is a group of Mahlerites who reside in Toronto and are being rebellious in their own way. Or, maybe Mahler has come back to the grave to spraypaint his name around Canada. Who knows?
