Graffiti (art) is one of my most favourite types of arts to look at as it is a very good way to see how someone has expressed their thoughts, and it can give buildings better looks. I'm sure if someone wants to do a portrait of some sort , they should get the 'okay' from the building owner first. But when it comes to kids going around spraying their 12-man local gang names or signs or whatever, it is just pathetic looking.
One of the most controversial graffiti artist that captures my attention all the time is Banksy. I feel that his work speaks truth on political topics and with added humour. He plays with common conceptions of stereotypical view that people have, this is what makes his work unforgettable . His inside and outside work are both at mind-blowing, some pictures below shoe some of his inside and outside work!
Graffiti can look nice on buildings, but if they are doing it on someone's private property (housing) without their permission then I say it is wrong!
It's subjective, because anything can be considered art nowadays, so you can't really argue that some graffiti it is not art, however you can argue that the quality of graffiti as an art.
