Sheesh it's fairly simple

llohuir December 04, 2008 07:48PM

So graffiti that is allowed is cool? I'm just curious because...

Zoder December 05, 2008 10:22AM

Sure if it is allocated space for graffiti

llohuir December 05, 2008 09:27PM

is it still grafiti then?

Inquisitor December 05, 2008 10:04PM

llohuir December 06, 2008 12:34AM

If vandalism is art, then genocide is just accelerated Darwinism

Rade December 04, 2008 06:19PM

Public graffiti spaces are cool, slap tagging and tagging for "turf" marking is ridiculous

hopelessdwarf December 04, 2008 03:17PM

I interpret what you are calling art as...

Pro December 04, 2008 01:19PM

Ironically.

istirith December 04, 2008 04:43PM

It's not even a troll

Pro December 06, 2008 07:57PM

fixed

Scrimbul December 05, 2008 02:48PM

Yeah yeah, calling on Government as per usual

Graham December 04, 2008 02:35PM

You are joking right? Seriously?

Pro December 04, 2008 03:15PM

He is using sarcasm as a means of demonstrating that you are a hypocrit. n/t

Balrahd(VIP) December 04, 2008 06:40PM

I'll bite.

Pro December 05, 2008 04:25PM

Ooh, calling honest people liars repeatedly, for one. Talking about peoples shitty characters for another. n/t

jalim December 06, 2008 11:20AM

If you are implying you are honest.

Pro December 06, 2008 07:53PM

Haha.

jalim December 07, 2008 05:33AM

The thing about liars.. they can't remember their lies.

Pro December 08, 2008 12:36PM

Hehehe

jalim December 09, 2008 02:34AM

I specifically remember reading posts like that from you all the time. n/t

jalim December 04, 2008 04:21PM

Jalim, you've proven yourself to be a liar in the past.

Pro December 04, 2008 05:46PM

Heh. You bit. n/t

jalim December 04, 2008 05:47PM

You win. n/t

Balrahd(VIP) December 04, 2008 06:39PM

It's vandalism.

cointreau December 04, 2008 12:52PM

Just because it's vandalism, and just because you don't appreciate it, doesn't make it not art. See my post below. nt

Splntrd December 04, 2008 03:15PM

ACtually because its vandalism I really think that negates the term art but thats my opinion n/t

hopelessdwarf December 04, 2008 03:20PM

Not at all.

Splntrd December 04, 2008 03:38PM

Vandalism= damaging property that you dont own=someone else has to pay to clean it up= not art n/t

StinkyDino December 05, 2008 09:18AM

Sure, vandalism is wrong. It's disrespectful and costly. But it can also be art. nt

Splntrd December 04, 2008 05:06PM

I keep trying to say the same thing about murder. Nobody listens to people like us. NT

Batman December 04, 2008 05:07PM

Too funny. : P nt

The Forsaken(VIP) December 04, 2008 05:55PM

Saying graffiti is art is like saying banging sticks on a hollow log is music

ExPaladin(VIP) December 04, 2008 03:41PM

I never said the vast majority of it wasn't shitty.

Splntrd December 04, 2008 03:46PM

Well judge for yourself ... (see inside)

WraithOfLight December 04, 2008 12:48PM

Depends on the Graffiti. I like witty or artistic tags. nt

Someone Not Special, Esquire December 04, 2008 11:14AM

It's annoying and usually looks trashy.

The Forsaken(VIP) December 04, 2008 08:55AM

Is it any better than corporate america force feeding you with their signs from cradle to grave?

Lokain December 04, 2008 10:21AM

Neither do I, so long as they paid for it.

The Forsaken(VIP) December 04, 2008 10:34AM

Yes because that's an incredibly easy thing to accomplish. Far easier than getting spraypaint and tagging the boards. THANKS FOR THE AWESOME INSIGHT! n/t

Lokain December 04, 2008 10:44AM

Addendum: Good movie out there about taggers called "Bomb the System" nt

Lokain December 04, 2008 10:23AM

It's not art. It's shit. Go get some paper, or pay for what you're drawing on. NT

Batman December 04, 2008 08:54AM

Or just get city permission

cyril December 04, 2008 09:11AM

Re: Or just get city permission

StinkyDino December 04, 2008 09:22AM

Why

StinkyDino December 04, 2008 08:56AM

When your art extends uninvited to things you don't own, it's NOT art. It's vandalism.

vladamir December 04, 2008 09:01AM

StinkyDino December 04, 2008 09:07AM

You're missing the point.

Scrimbul December 04, 2008 03:01PM

Re: You're missing the point.

StinkyDino December 04, 2008 08:10PM

No, it's as hard to do graffiti well as any other art medium. Vandalism issues and legality aside it's just a medium, what you can do with it is what matters.

Scrimbul December 04, 2008 09:49PM

If it was comissioned by the owner of that building, it's art. If not, then vandalism. nt

vladamir December 04, 2008 11:54AM

You couldn't be more wrong.

Splntrd December 04, 2008 03:12PM

Because the concept of art is subjective.

DurNominator(VIP) December 04, 2008 09:34PM

Yeah, see, here's an example of beautiful things that take too long to explain

Batman December 05, 2008 04:20AM

That's one tired goat

DurNominator(VIP) December 05, 2008 11:55AM

ANACHRONISMS ARE ART DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND NT

Scrimbul December 05, 2008 03:08PM

Re: Yeah, see, here's an example of beautiful things that take too long to explain

StinkyDino December 05, 2008 09:09AM

It doesn't take an art degree to tell when someone's private property has been defaced.

istirith December 04, 2008 05:23PM

Re: It doesn't take an art degree to tell when someone's private property has been defaced.

Splntrd December 04, 2008 05:54PM

Exactly. I'm talking about it on the whole as viewed by society.

istirith December 04, 2008 08:03PM

I will concede that definitions are somewhat flexible.

Splntrd December 05, 2008 07:52AM

This discussion has probably been repeated for hundreds if not thousands of years

ExPaladin(VIP) December 05, 2008 09:24AM
