Art: Random Graffiti Art
10 Jul 2007
some random graffiti art..Graffiti (singular: “graffito,” although the plural is more common) is the name for images or lettering scratched or scrawled on public property. Graffiti has existed since ancient times, with examples going back to Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire.
Graffiti can be anything from simple scratch marks to elaborate wall paintings. In modern times, spray paint and markers have become the most commonly used materials. In most countries, defacing property with graffiti without the property owner’s consent is considered vandalism, which is punishable by law. 
Sometimes graffiti is employed to communicate social and political messages. To some, it is an art form worthy of display in galleries and exhibitions. However, the public generally frowns upon “tags” that deface bus stops, trains, buildings, playgrounds and other public property.

I consider graffiti a definite art form. I enjoy the colorful life it brings to otherwise drab walls and buildings. I becomes a crime when “taggers” tag over signs and public art. In my eyes if there is respect, there is no crime.
