Thoughts on graffiti artists? Are you one?

They are probably some rich kid’s children. Or someone powerful’s. That’s why there is no consequence even if they caught by the police or the cameras, which are everywhere now.

I don’t understand why literally all graffiti writing uses exactly the same style, no matter where you find it (in the US anyway). Always struck me as very odd. Why doesn’t anyone try to innovate
>>
>>8006979
innovation happened more than 40 years ago

i actually see different styles around here (eu)

Lamest shit you could do
Find me one graffiti artist who has the balls to paint a nipple

Vandals.

I wouldn't have such a problem with graffiti art if it wasn't so same-y and if taggers had the common sense to put more thought into whether or not the art complements the buildings and overall surroundings.

What I find interesting is that Americans are so quick to either dismiss the activity as something only poor blacks/hispanics do (and blame poverty-induced IQ or dysfunctional households) or will make endless excuses for it as a behavior and how it should be enabled when nobody really looks at how other countries have kids doing graffiti art and the common denominator isn't race, but gender and socio-economic class. Graffiti is nearly entirely carried out by boys (either connected to gangs or who want to be) who are pretty much out of the house completely unsupervised. Hell, if you look at the history of graffiti art in America before it took off in NYC, it checks out.

Rich white kids get away with it for that reason but cops don't bother to hunt down poor kids who graffiti unless they happen to bump into them because it's too much work.

Low IQ "art" of egotripping jerks.

I'm European and despise it. Uglifies everything and the people behind it are scum.

Graffiti art can be cool. But it's kind of limited in various ways. Everyone knows of Banksy right? Arguably the most famous graffiti artist
>>
>>8006975
Are we talking about graffiti art or taggers
Because taggers can suck my taint
Fuck these guys
There's some shmuck teenager round here in my local coldasac, just "tagging" "23" on things
Congrats dude, you were here big whoop stop fucking up people's fences
Its zero effort "Gary was here" lame shit
All taggers should fuck off
>>
>>8007201
Overrated and uninspired
>>
>>8007222
I think while taggers are worse, graffiti """art""" isn't much better
