Graffiti artists

Tell me about it, that bloody 'broken window' theory in action once again. I'm still pretty baffled as to the reasoning behind the criminalisation of graffiti, when it first came about it was kids wanting to decorate their surroundings. I can understand that not everyone likes or appreciates it but I still don't see how it actively negatively impinges on anyone else. In Italy, or at least Roma, there's a lot higher tolerance towards graffiti which means artists get to spend a lot more time creating nicer pieces as opposed to the quicker bombing style throwups and tags due to fear of being caught. I spent every tram journey in Roma glued to the window watching hundreds of pieces go by, some obviously quite old too, which was nice to see. From what the locals told me, if it's any good then it's pretty unlikely it'll get removed.

yeah some people i know went to paris and said that it was fucking amazing, just like london except everything better. better dubs with longer time taken, steel running, better handstyles and of course the "euro style" .
but some good stuff has come out of having a short time period to paint in, harder to reach plots and definitely BLOCKBUSTERS. there areny many blockies on br lines.
