Continuing my themes of Bishkek’s general coolness factor (here and here) and dredging up photos from my laptop’s hard drive, these photographs of graffiti were taken by Shirin Aitmatova nearly a year ago in March 2011. I saw some of these still clinging to walls during my last trip to the city. [Cross-posted to our partners @ Demotix: here.]

Hey! very neat post. I wonder where those have been taken? Can you help identify the place in the city? (at least, the first six photos)
