I don't believe graffiti in and of itself is any complex social statement either, in case you wondered. It's not done because you're 'sticking it to the man' by defacing public property with your name, it's writing your name somewhere so you can brag and gain social acceptance from other jerk offs. | ||

They have to learn somehow/somewhere. You can't say you like 'good' graffiti and then say you hate 'tagger' graffiti. Everyone of those pieces' artists started as a tagger. Its either you like it or you don't. You gotta take the good with the bad or nothing at all. PS- Anyone who says they do anything just to 'express themselves' is either gay, stupid, or lying. I never said; "Hey, i feel like expressing myself through vandalism.". I did it for the rush and for the props from other writers like me. I could care less if any random person likes/dislikes it anyways, its not for them its for me and other writers (just like Skeme said in that famous docu). PS- Shockey, why the fuck would you come on a 'nerd' forum and expect people to not argue at you? Are you a huge toy? Are those really even your friends in the video? | ||

Graffiti artists need to clean up their act to receive positive attention. Why not create works that will last, and try to show them off legitimately? Get talented artists together, get sponsors, sell the paintings, and hold art shows. Painting great art underneath bridges and on street signs won't earn anything. The image is still that of hoodlums and vandals, because of people like the street sign painter. | ||

I knew there was going to be people arguing with me, and like I said, they wouldn't understand about the graffiti scene. Also, Yes they're my friends. Going to an art school, you meet a lot of taggers, bombers, what ever you want. I myself don't have a camera (Well I do on my phone but it doesn't have internet atm to send my pictures) so I can't upload photos. | ||
