this is crazy good work, and as an artist and an art teacher, I say, check out Jean Michel Basquiat , who died in the 80’s from a drug overdose, but who we study in art when looking at graffitti….check him out.

of course graffiti is art… the idea that murals are not art because of their location and ownership issues of the walls etc is rediculous-

the stand out feature of graffiti is it’s freedom and self expression.

if you’ve ever painted a wall with cans (some walls you’re allowed), it’s such a freedom you just go nuts with out thought of limits or boundaries…

A+ on that art form!

This is a very interesting piece of graffiti. I like the colors that were used in it. I think that grafitti is a form of art as long as it is done legally, but people shoud abide by the rules that have been set. Grafitti should be done on the appropriate place and not destroying the look of a public building unless you have their permission to paint on their building.

wicked graff man. it’s hard to make wildstyle actually work. and as for the question, yes graffiti is a form of art. it symbolizes a freedom of expression that appeals to youth. but, since young people are usually the ones doing graff, it’s labeled as “vandalism”. don’t be a dumbshit.
do your work the right way on the right, appropriate space.
later.

Graffiti is art as long you do it lequally
You have no right to destroy the look of public buildings
without the owners permission.This is a crime.

I do love graffiti art on paper,canvass,wood in a gallery
I,m over 60 yrs old but I love the complex words and colors
they use.
Please keep in galleries.
my time is 10;16 a.m.
