I’ll admit that I’m not much of a fan of graffiti, but I do understand that the concept of graffiti dates back to historic times and is often an expression of social and political messages. While some communities commission graffiti artists to cover sides of buildings and fences with their artwork, some of the graffiti we see in the U.S. today is not as welcome.
That said, I was fascinated by the graffiti in Florence, Italy that seemed to my uneducated eye to be more artistic and contained, albeit still defacing the buildings. I thought I’d share some of it with you.
