Since ancient times graffiti has become a rebellion against government, laws, and wretched semblance of democracy. The seeds of street art which image springs up in our minds when mentioning ‘graffiti’ started to hit it big in the 1960s in New York.
Any graffiti is a form of expression. Any of them reflect an artist’s thoughts, feelings, and energy. Any of them evoke either the negative or positive emotions of viewers. Hence, we would put street art on a par with world-famous paintings.
People should realize that the world is changing. No one is going to destroy historic buildings or cities with colorful and ‘indecent’ drawings. But the modern cities, their architecture, and values cannot be the same as they were in the past.
