Graffiti is a type of art that is very public, and is often used in an expressive manner to portray thoughts and opinions. I personally like the art, but only when it’s not inappropriate or portraying a message I strongly disagree with.There are a few small key locations where you could see some graffiti, but not enough of it where we could call it popular. Graffiti is more often covering cities and urban areas, versus small towns like Millis. I consider graffiti as both art and vandalism. It is most definitely art, a very expressive form of it, can can often be quite creative and appealing to the eye. I would only consider graffiti vandalism if it portrays a negative message or vulgar imagery, but more often people simply leave their mark around cities.Considering that it is, in fact, against the law, if they were caught they should be forced to apologize to whoever’s property they have vandalized, and should they want it removed, the “criminal” should have to remove it by whatever means necessary. If the walls of my house were painted with graffiti without my consent, while I would be a little bothered, I would also think it was kind of cool. Although I don’t know if my parents would agree. The point of Exit Through the Gift Shop was, I thought, to show consumerism and the effect street art or commercialism has on society, and the pull it has on people. I don’t think it matters if the whole thing was staged because I still see it as an accurate representation of consumerism and commercialism.
