Re: "The Art of Graffitti Writing"

Sorry Cejache,

At the start of the thread, you agreed with the council that it was a good idea to encourage kids to be trained in the "art" of graffiti!

That is your choice and full marks to you for saying it! Unfortunately, it seems as if most, if not all members of this site cannot see your point of view In an ideal world, youngsters would be "trained" to create art as a career and go on to benefit all, but we all know that if you show an 18 year old how to push the button on a spraycan, the world (or wall) is his oyster!

Great pieces of art can come from a can, you only have to look at the spectacular trucks that go up the M6,.........but if you label the course "graffiti" you are going to attract the wrong type of teenager and they will decorate anything they can in the name of Art!
