Graffiti: Art or Nuisance?
Wednesday, April 25, 2007
Soundcheck hosts a debate on graffiti art, its importance to hip hop culture and its role in urban blight. On our panel: graffiti artist Sandra Fabara (a.k.a. Lady Pink); Jon Reiss, director of the street-art documentary "Bomb It!"; and Peter F. Vallone Jr., the New York City Council member from Queens who proposed legislation doubling fines for graffiti.

Graffiti is the best way for creative artists to express how they feel and express visions beyond the capacity of words. I love graff art in the aspects of murals or bombing. I curently spray 3-D wildstyle... something unique i created with cartoons cant forget them. Graffiti is definately not vandalism and should be considered art. if picasso painted a picture on the side of a building would it be vandalism? i'd say it was graffiti
