Graffiti art or not?

[Charlie]

I think some of it's art, not the stuff like peoples names in graffti writing but things like images and what not would be classed as art to me.

There is a few builds around that have like graffti'd pictures on them, and they are really good.

I agree to a certain point, around my area we have a special wall built just for graffiti art and it looks friggen good

What a waste of taxpayer money to be honest, If I paid my taxes I would not want my council tax money to go towards a pointless wall covered in paint.

But on a canvas what do you think?

I think modern art sucks altogether, a nice picture of a house by a lakeside is art to me, unlike some red lines and green circles all mashd in together with many other colours.

Fair enough.

I'm quite into the edgy-arty-designs.

I think graffiti looks good in graffitti parks with the huge boards which is a huge display of free expression. but when its on the street its just vandalism, which can ruin or spoil great facilities. People who do it are dumb in a way because we pay taxes (People in England in general obviously not teenagers) for theese facilities and we reck them. so your ruining your own money.

Agree with top part, if people want to do art then they should buy their own space to do it. I'm an artist myself but I disagree with councils paying for some guy to spray over a stencil on a wall.

Second part I used to agree with, then I found out that expressionism, futurism and surrealism count as modern art, and that's what I mostly paint myself ^_^ however yeah "random" bits of colour which aren't anything aren't great in my opinion, as it's the explanation of what they've done which people see as artistic and not the piece itself.
